Paroles et traduction Richard Wagner - Lohengrin: "In fernem Land, unnahbar euren Schritten"

Lohengrin: "In fernem Land, unnahbar euren Schritten"

LOHENGRIN
(In feierlicher Verklärung vor sich
Herblickend)
In fernem Land,
Unnahbar euren Schritten,
Liegt eine Burg,
Die Montsalvat genannt;
Ein lichter Tempel
Stehet dort inmitten,
So kostbar,
Als auf Erden nichts bekannt;
Drin ein Gefäß
Von wundertät'gem Segen
Wird dort als höchstes
Heiligtum bewacht:
Es ward, daß sein
Der Menschen reinste pflegen,
Herab von einer Engelschar gebracht;
Alljährlich naht
Vom Himmel eine Taube,
Um neu zu stärken seine Wunderkraft:
Es heißt der Gral,
Und selig reinster Glaube
Erteilt durch ihn
Sich seiner Ritterschaft.
Wer nun dem Gral
Zu dienen ist erkoren,
Den rüstet er mit überird'scher Macht;
An dem ist jedes Bösen Trug verloren,
Wenn ihn er sieht,
Weicht dem des Todes Nacht.
Selbst wer
Von ihm in ferne Land' entsendet,
Zum Streiter für
Der Tugend Recht ernannt,
Dem wird nicht seine
Heil'ge Kraft entwendet,
Bleibt als sein Ritter
Dort er unerkannt.
So hehrer Art doch ist
Des Grales Segen,
Enthüllt - muß er
Des Laien Auge fliehn;
Des Ritters drum sollt Zweifel
Ihr nicht hegen,
Erkennt ihr ihn -
Dann muß er von euch ziehn.
Nun hört,
Wie ich verbotner Frage lohne!
Vom Gral ward
Ich zu euch daher gesandt:
Mein Vater Parzival
Trägt seine Krone,
Sein Ritter ich -
Bin Lohengrin genannt.

LOHENGRIN
(Transfigurado, mira delante de sí
A lo lejos)
En tierras lejanas,
Inaccesibles para vosotros,
Se encuentra una fortaleza
Llamada Montsalvat.
En su centro se yergue
Un majestuoso templo,
Tan espléndido
Que en la tierra nada hay
Tan precioso como él.
En su interior
Se guarda un cáliz
Bendito y milagroso,
Como bien más preciado.
Una corte de ángeles celestiales
Lo trajo a la tierra
Para que fuese custodiado
Por los hombres más virtuosos.
Cada año una paloma
Desciende del cielo
Para infundir nueva fuerza
A su poder milagroso.
Es conocido como el Grial,
Y de él reciben los caballeros
La fe más pura y gloriosa.
Quien es escogido
Para servir al Grial
Recibe de éste un poder sobrenatural.
Contra él nada puede
La mentira del hombre malvado
Y en su presencia
La noche de la muerte se desvanece.
Quien por él es enviado
A lejanas tierras
Para defender la virtud,
No queda privado
De su sagrada fortaleza,
Siempre que se ignore
Que es un caballero del Grial.
Tan sublime es la gracia del Grial
Que quien la descubra...
Deberá huir de las miradas profanas.
Por ese motivo no ha de existir
Duda ninguna sobre sus caballeros,
Puesto que si los reconocéis
Deberán abandonaros.
¡Escuchad ahora
Cómo premio la pregunta prohibida!
Fui enviado a vosotros por el Grial.
Mi padre, Parsifal,
Ciñe la corona.
Soy su caballero...
Y mi nombre es Lohengrin.

Lohengrin: "In a distant land, unapproachable to your steps"

LOHENGRIN
(In front of him in solemn Transfiguration
Looking forward)
In a distant country,
Unapproachable to your steps,
There is a castle,
Called the Montsalvat;
A temple of light
Standing there in the middle,
So precious,
As nothing is known on earth;
Inside there is a vessel
By miraculous blessing
Will be there as the highest
The sanctuary is guarded:
It was that his
Taking care of the purest of people,
Brought down by a band of angels;
Approaching every year
A dove from the sky,
To re-strengthen his miraculous power:
It's called the Grail,
And blessed is the purest faith
Issued by him
His knighthood.
Who is now the Grail
It is chosen to serve,
He equips him with unearthly power;
In which every evil deception is lost,
When he sees him,
Give way to the night of death.
Even who
Sent by him to a distant land,
Become a champion for
The right of virtue is appointed,
It will not be his
Heil'ge power is stolen,
Stay as his knight
There he is unrecognized.
As noble as art is
The Grail's Blessing,
Revealed - he must
The eye of the layman;
There should be doubts about the knight's
You do not cherish,
Do you recognize him -
Then he must pull away from you.
Now listen,
How I am worth asking prohibitionists!
The Grail ward
I am therefore sent to you:
My father Parzival
Wearing his crown,
Sein Ritter ich -
Bin Lohengrin genannt.

LOHENGRIN
(Transfigured, he looks before him
In the distance)
In distant lands,
Inaccessible to you,
A fortress is found
The name is Montsalvat.
At its center stands
A majestic temple,
So splendid
That there is nothing on earth
As precious as he is.
Inside her
A chalice is kept
Blessed and miraculous,
As a most precious commodity.
A court of heavenly angels
Brought him to earth
To be guarded
For the most virtuous men.
Every year a dove
Come down from the sky
To infuse new strength
To his miraculous power.
It is known as the Grail,
And from him the gentlemen receive
The purest and most glorious faith.
Who is chosen
To serve the Grail
He receives from it a supernatural power.
Against him nothing can
The evil man's lie
And in his presence
The night of death is fading away.
Who is sent by him
To distant lands
To defend virtue,
It is not private
Of his sacred fortress,
As long as it is ignored
That he is a Grail knight.
So sublime is the grace of the Grail
Let whoever discovers her...
He will have to flee from profane looks.
For this reason there should not be
No doubt about your gentlemen,
Because if you recognize them
They'll have to leave you.
Listen now
How do I reward the forbidden question!
I was sent to you by the Grail.
My father, Parsifal,
Fasten the crown.
I am your gentleman...
And my name is Lohengrin.
