The Turn of the Screw, Op. 54: Theme - Scene 1: The Journey
Die Drehung der Schraube, Op. 54: Thema - Szene 1: Die Reise
"I will," she said
"Ich werde", sagte sie
Nearly there
Fast angekommen
Very soon I shall know
Bald werde ich wissen
I shall know what's in store for me
Ich werde wissen was mir bevorsteht
Who will greet me?
Wer wird mich begrüßen?
The children, the children
Die Kinder die Kinder
Will they be clever?
Werden sie klug sein?
Will they like me?
Werden sie mich mögen?
Probably this
Vermutlich dies
No father, no mother
Kein Vater keine Mutter
But I will love them as I love my own
Doch ich werde sie lieben wie meine eigenen
All my dear ones left at home
Alle meine Lieben daheim gelassen
So far away
So fern
So far away
So fern
And so different
Und so anders
If things go wrong
Wenn Dinge schief laufen
What shall I do?
Was soll ich tun?
Who can I ask
Wen kann ich fragen
With none of my kind to talk to?
Da niemand meiner Art zum Reden da?
Only the old housekeeper
Nur die alte Haushälterin
How will she welcome me?
Wie wird sie mich empfangen?
I must not write to their guardian
Ich darf ihrem Vormund nicht schreiben
That is the hardest part of all
Das ist das Schwerste von allem
Whatever happens
Was auch geschieht
It is I who must decide
Ich bin es die entscheiden muss
Must be in word
Muss es in Worten sein
For the stranger's sake
Um des Fremden willen
Oh, why, why did I come?
Ach warum warum kam ich?
No, I've said I will do it
Nein ich sagte ich werde es tun
And for him I will
Und für ihn werde ich's
There's nothing to fear
Es gibt nichts zu fürchten
What could go wrong?
Was könnte schiefgehen?
Be brave
Sei mutig
Be brave
Sei mutig
We're nearly there
Wir sind fast da
Very soon I shall know
Bald werde ich wissen
Very soon I shall know
Bald werde ich wissen
