Paroles et traduction Florian Ast - Grossvater

Grossvater

R het sis Wrch so gmacht,
So dass keine drber het glacht!
Siner Pfiife gschtopft u no mngisch
Hei miner Ouge tropft.
Ja ig weiss no, ig ha ihm tte gseit,
Doch das het eine verheit,
D het ne s gno u itz git's keis Umecho!
Schn isch's gsi, wo mi Grossvater u i,
No si zme gsii uf dr'Aup,
Ir Nchi vom mmithau.
Schn isch's gsi, wo mi Grossvater u i,
No si zme gsii hie uf dr'Aup.
U we de d'Dischtle uf de Brge hei bleit,
De hei sini chranke Ouge gleit.
Sis Lbe lang het r gluegt,
Dass es sine Tier besser geit aus ihm!
Doch itz bliibt mim tte,
Nume no es Btte, doch itz bliibt mim tte
No es Btte!
Schn isch's gsii uf dr'Aup, oh.
Schn isch's gsii uf dr'Aup, oh.
Schn isch's gsi, wo mi Grossvater u i,
No si zme gsii hie uf dr'Aup.

Grandfather

You have made the bed so well,
So that no one has laughed about it!
You have filled your pipe and often
Tears have fallen from my eyes.
Yes, I still remember well how I spoke to you,
But that has passed away,
You have taken her with you and now there is no turning back!
It was beautiful when my grandfather and I,
Were still together on the meadow,
In the evening dew.
It was beautiful when my grandfather and I,
Were still together here on the meadow.
And when the thistles blossomed on the mountain,
Then his weak eyes shone.
All his life he has looked,
So that his animals may be better off than him!
But now my father has just one,
Only one request left now,
Just one!
It was beautiful on the meadow, oh.
It was beautiful on the meadow, oh.
It was beautiful when my grandfather and I,
Were still together here on the meadow.
