In allen Fernen

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG

In allen Fernen
Wölbt sich ein Haus,
Üb'rall aus Sternen
Schau'n Englein r'aus, 
Wo nur die Myrthe blüht,
Heimath ist nah,
Wo nur die Traube glüht,
Vaterhaus da! --
 
Auf alle Hügel 
Giesst sich die Flut,
Vöglein schwingt Flügel 
Überall gut;
Über den Fernen fort
Wölbt sich ein Haus,
Aus allen Sternen dort
Schau'n Englein 'raus. --

In all the far distances

Language: English after the German (Deutsch)

In all the far distances
Arches a house,
Everywhere from the stars
Angels peek out,
Wherever the myrtle blooms,
Home is near!
Wherever the grape glows,
Is my paternal house! --
 
Upon all the hilltops,
The waters pour down,
Little birds spread their wings
Everywhere easily!
Above the far distances,
A house ever arches,
From every star there
Angels peek out!
