Songs by Maria Fellinger

Die Lerche jubelt lauter drein, Den Frühling zu begrüßen, Sieht unter sich, in lichtem Schein, Das erste Grün sie sprießen. Und wär's ein Grab auch, drauf es schoßt, Sie ändert nicht die Weise, Das Grün auch, das auf Gräbern sproßt, Mahnt an den Frühling leise.

The lark rejoices more loudly To greet spring, [And] below, in bright radiance, It sees the first green burgeoning. And even if it were a grave upon which it sprouts, [The lark] does not change its melody; Even the green that burgeons upon graves Quietly reminds us of springtime.

Es kommen die Sonnenstrahlen, die feinen, Die möchten dir gern in die Augen scheinen, Lug' -- lug', Elslein, mach' auf! Dann kommt die Lerche mit hellen Schwingen, Möcht' dir ihr Lied zu Herzen singen, Horch' -- horch', Elslein, mach' auf! Es kommen zum Fenster herein die Rosen, Möchten mit deinen Händen kosen, Lug' -- lug', Elslein, mach' auf! Bald kommt dein Liebster auch gegangen, Der möcht' dir küssen Mund und Wangen, Horch' -- horch', Elslein, mach' auf!

There come the sunbeams, the delicate ones, They would gladly shine into your eyes, Peek -- peek, Elsie, open up! [Then the lark comes with bright wings]1, It would like to sing you a song that will penetrate your heart, Hark -- hark, Elsie, open up! In through your window the roses come, They would like to exchange caresses with your hands, Peek -- peek, Elsie, open up! Soon along comes your beloved as well, He would like to kiss your lips and cheeks, Hark -- hark, Elsie, open up!

Frühling war's in allen Zweigen, Und die braune Drossel sang, Und an deiner Schulter lehnt' ich, O, wie war ich froh und bang! Bin zu Füßen dir gesessen, Hab' in Wonnen dich geküßt, Und kann's nimmermehr vergessen, Was du mir gewesen bist! Nimmermehr in all den Tagen, Nimmer in der langen Zeit - - - Was du mir getan zu Liebe, Was du mir getan zu Leid'!

T'was [spring]1 in all the branches And the brown thrush sang, And I leaned upon your shoulder, Oh, how joyful and anxious I was! I sat at your feet, I kissed you with [multiple delights]2, And I can never forget What you meant to me! Nevermore in all the days, [Never in the long]3 time - - - What you did for love of me, What you did to cause me woe!
