In der Fremde
See original
Language: German (Deutsch)
Aus der Heimat hinter den Blitzen rot
Da kommen die Wolken her,
Aber Vater und Mutter sind lange tot,
Es kennt mich dort keiner mehr.
Wie bald, wie bald kommt die stille Zeit,
Da ruhe ich auch, und über mir
rauscht die schöne Waldeinsamkeit,
Und keiner kennt mich mehr hier.
Note: the first stanza was quoted as part of a text set by Einem.

Da pátria por detrás do rubro dos relâmpagos,
De lá vêm as nuvens,
Mas pai e mãe já estão mortos há tanto tempo,
Lá ninguém me conhece mais.
Tão logo, tão logo virá o tempo da paz,
Então descansarei também, e sobre mim
Sussurra a bela solidão dos bosques,
E ninguém me conhece mais aqui.
