MUETI, LIEBS MUETI Menar, Louis

Höch uf de Bärge, ganz zhinderscht im Tal
Stoht es bruns Hüsli, so chli und so schmal
Da wohnt mis Müeti, scho so vili Johr
Sie isch älter worde, und het graui Haar.

Weisch no, liebs Müeti wie schön isch es gsii
Bi dir deheime, im Stübli so chlii
Gsunge und glachet, händ all dini Chind
Doch alles vergeiht ja, so schnell und so gschwind.

Grösser wirsch, älter wirsch, d'Ziit will fascht verrenne
Jede goht sine Wäg, und s'Läbe nimmt sin Lauf.

Müeti, liebs Müeti, bald bisch du elei
All dini Chinder, chöme nümme so hei
S'laufe kei Buebe, meh s'Wägli doruf
S'wird wieder stiller, bi dir i dim Hus.
Refrain
Müeti, los zue, in d'Abendrueh
Tönt's wie ne Glogge, so hell und so klar
SEcho vom Bärg, rüeft Dir zue
Wenn ich für dich singe tue.

Müeti, liebs Müeti, dänk immer fescht dra
Dass mir dich lieb, und ganz gäre tüend haa
Müeti, du weisch es, mir hei immer Ziit
De bis zu dir hei, da is ja nit wiit.
Refrain
Müeti, los zue...

Müeti, liebs Müeti, was willsch du no meh
Hesch in dim Läbe, so vill gschafft und gseh
Bisch immer lieb und so guet zu eus gsii
Danke, liebs Müeti min Goldsunneschii.

Mother, dear Mother

MOTHER, DEAR MOTHER Menar, Louis

High up in the mountains, quite far in the valley
Stands a brown little house, so small and narrow
My mother lives there, for so many years
She has grown older, and has gray hair.

Do you remember, dear mother, how beautiful it was
Being at home with you, in that little room
All your children sang and laughed
But everything passes, so quickly and so fast.

You grow older, and older, time is running fast
Everyone goes their own way, and life takes its course.

Mother, dear mother, soon you will be alone
All your children, will no longer come home
The little boys don't run, anymore, up the path
It will be quieter again, at your house.
Refrain
Mother, open up, to the evening calm
It sounds like a bell, so bright and clear
Echo from the mountain, calls to you
When I sing for you.

Mother, dear mother, always remember
That we love you, and we always will
Mother, you know, we always have time
To come home to you, it's not far.
Refrain
Mother, open up...

Mother, dear mother, what else do you want
You have done so much in your life, and seen so much
You have always been kind and so good to us
Thank you, dear mother, my sunshine.
