Der Knabe mit dem Wunderhorn

(Sung text for setting by O. Lessmann)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: CAT DUT DUT ENG FRE ITA

Ich bin ein lust'ger Geselle,
Wer könnt auf Erden fröhlicher sein!
Mein Rößlein so helle, so helle,
Das trägt mich mit Windesschnelle
In's blühende Leben hinein! --
Trara!
In's blühende Leben hinein.

Es tönt an meinem Munde
Ein silbernes Horn von süßem Schall,
Es tönt wohl manche Stunde,
Von Fels und Wald in der Runde
Antwortet der Widerhall! --
Trara!
Antwortet der Widerhall.

 ... 

Es zieht mich hinaus in die Ferne;
Ich gebe dem flüchtigen Rosse den Sporn.
Ade! Wohl blieb ich noch gerne,
Doch winken schon andre Sterne,
Und grüssend ertöne das Horn --
Trara!
Und grüssend ertöne das Horn.

Il ragazzo dal corno magico

(Sung text translation for setting by O. Lessmann)

See original

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)

Io sono un tipo allegro, 
chi è più felice di me al mondo! 
Il mio cavallino è chiaro chiaro, 
e mi porta veloce come il vento 
dove la vita fiorisce più lieta! - 
Trara! 
Dove la vita fiorisce più lieta. 

Risuona dalla mia bocca 
un corno d'argento dalla dolce voce, 
risuona per tanto tempo, 
dalla rupe e dal bosco 
risponde intorno l'eco - 
Trara! 
Risponde l'eco. 

 ... 

Devo andarmene lontano, 
sprono il cavallo veloce. 
Addio! resterei volentieri, 
ma mi chiamano già altre stelle, 
e vi saluta il suono del corno - 
Trara! 
E vi saluta il suono del corno.
