Paroles et traduction Zupfgeigenhansel - Schtil, di nacht is ojsgeschternt

Schtil, di nacht is ojsgeschternt

Schtil, di nacht is ojsgeschternt,
Un der frost hot schtark gebrent;
Tsi gedenkstu wi ich dich hob gelernt
Haltn a schpajer in di hent?

A mojd, a peltsl un a beret
Und halt in hand fest a nagan.
A mojd mit a sametenem ponim
Hit op dem sojnes karawan.

Getsilt, geschosn un getrofn
Hot ir klejninker pistojl;
An ojto a fulinkn mit wofn
Farhaltn hot si mit ajn kojl.

Fartog, fun wald arojsgekrochn,
Mit schnej-girlandn ojf di hor,
Gemutikt fun klejninkn nitsochn
Far undser najen, frajen dor.

Still, the night is starlit

Quietly, the night is starlit,
And the frost has burned fiercely;
Do you remember when I taught you to hold
A sword in your hand?

A coat, a fur hat and a beret
And firmly in your hand a nagan.
A coat with a velvet collar
Now on the back of your caravan.

Silenced, aimed and fired
Was your little pistol;
A sack full of weapons
You protected with a horsehair.

Hastily, you emerged from the forest,
With garlands of snow on your hair,
Encouraged by the little victories
For our new, free village.
