Der Wandersmann [English translation]
Der Wandersmann [English translation]
It has been emptied, the first barrel, come brothers, tell some more
About your far journeys, speak and raise the glass
The old bearded wayfairing man starts with the story
When once from far away a hunting horn resounded and hunters were running through the forest
The deer threatens to escape! But I was running faster than the animal
With my mere fist brought it to the ground, this antlers here as proof for it
The old bearded wayfairing man starts with the story
When once a storm was raging the sea and all were swept from the deck
The ship threatened to sink, the sails strained like paper
I drew breath and blew the storm away, this linen as proof for it
It has been emptied, the first barrel, come brothers, tell some more
About your far journeys, speak and raise the glass
The old bearded wayfairing man starts with the story
When once the enemy conquered the city, the catapult tearing the gate up
I creeped up from behind, my fighting cry sounded like a 1000 men
They ran away like shy beasts, this helmet here as proof for it
The old bearded wayfairing man starts with the story
When once the Judgement had started and everyone was talking about the end
Flames were rising in the world, when open stood hell's door
I shut it close and my lock holds, this key as proof for it
It has been emptied, the first barrel, come brothers, tell some more
About your far journeys, speak and raise the glass
I have told about my hunt, how I beat the storm
How I chased the evil enemy away and hell remained closed
Now bring the second barrel in, we want to be even happier
But not fill the bag too much, dance happily on the tables
There runs the wine, there runs the beer, up the jars, let's drink!
