Paroles et traduction Sophie Hunger - Lied für Zwärge

Lied für Zwärge

Si isch erwachet hüt am morge
Zwüsche Riese riesegross
Wenn si öbis wot erkläre
Mues si schreie wild druflos
Gseh tüe sie si gar nid
Steit si nid tobend just dervor
Oder hackt si mitme Bieli
Nid es paar Löcher ines Ohr.
Sig emal chli lieslig und lueg dr Bode a!
D′Riese riesse grossi Löcher hie i Wald
Und boue grossi Schlösser ganz nach Riesegstalt
Doch wär, wär söll drin wohne?
Vo öich gits weni nur
Doch vo ine gits Millione
Wo chratze ade Tür.
Sig emal chli lieslig und lueg dr Bode a!
Uf vilne, chline tusig Zwärge tuesch du stah.
Dank vilne, chIine tusig Zwärge tuesch du stah.
Nid lang isches gange
Im Vergliech zur Ewigkeit
Da si d'Zwärge vor Verlange
Ganz im Stoub zerkeit.
Und D′Riese si versunke
Will d'Schwärchraft kennt kes Rächt
Weder für di zogne Gränze
No für Grössi oder Gschlächt.

Song for the Dwarves

She is awake this morning
Between giants, giant-tall
If she wants to explain something
She has to scream wildly
They don't see her at all
Isn't she standing right in front of them, raging?
Or is she digging a few holes
In her ears with a crowbar?
Be a little quieter and look at the ground!
The giants' giant-big holes in the forest
And they build big castles, quite giant-sized
But who, who is supposed to live in them?
There are only a few of you
But there are millions of them
Who are scratching at the door.
Be a little quieter and look at the ground!
You are standing on many, little, thousand dwarves.
And thanks to many, little, thousand dwarves you are standing.
It wasn't long
Compared to eternity
Until the dwarves crumbled away
Completely into dust from longing.
And the giants sank
Because gravity knows no right
Neither for the borders you draw
Nor for size or gender.
