Текст и перевод песни Hannes Wader - De Moel

De Moel

De Puch quarkt int Rohr
De Voß bru′t int Moor
Un wit inne Feern schallt Gesank
Min Hart stiggt to Höch
Ik weet ni, wa'k seeg
De Thran′n löpt de Backen hentlank

De Dag geit to Rau
Opt Gras liggt de Dau
De Wulken ann Himmel warn roth
Dat Allens so still,
Ik weet nich, wa'k will
Ik glöv, mi is truri to Moth

Dar achter de Weid
Wit oever de Heid
Dar schimmert ann Himmel aen Moel
Dat is mi, as weer
Ik dar voer de Doer
Un seet oppen Moelnbarg un spel

De Dag geit to Rau
Opt Gras liggt de Dau
De Wulken ann Himmel warn roth
Dat Allens so still,
Ik weet nich, wa'k will
Ik glöv, mi is truri to Moth

Denn seeg dar en rut
Un den kenn ik so gut
Den seet ik so oft oppen Schot
De Steen leep un klung
De Mann seet un sung
Ann Himmel de Wulken weern roth

De Dag geit to Rau
Opt Gras liggt de Dau
De Wulken ann Himmel warn roth
Dat Allens so still,
Ik weet nich, wa′k will
Ik glöv, mi is truri to Moth

Dar weer ik noch kleen
Un nun bün ik alleen
Wer weet, ob de Ol dar noch steit?
De Lucht is so luri –
Dat Leed is so truri
Gottlof, dat de Moel doch noch geit!

De Dag geit to Rau
Opt Gras liggt de Dau
De Wulken ann Himmel warn roth
Dat Allens so still,
Ik weet nich, wa′k will
Ik glöv, mi is truri to Moth

The Mill

The owl hoots in the pipe
The fox barks in the marsh
And through the distance sounds singing
My heart rises high
I don't know what I see
Tears run down my cheeks

The day is turning to dusk
Dew lies on the grass
The clouds in the sky have turned red
Everything is so quiet
I don't know what I want
I think I am sad at heart

There behind the pasture
White above the heath
There shimmers a mill in the sky
It is to me as if
I drove there through the door
And sat on the mill hill and played

The day is turning to dusk
Dew lies on the grass
The clouds in the sky have turned red
Everything is so quiet
I don't know what I want
I think I am sad at heart

Then I see someone there
And I know him so well
I have so often sat him on my lap
The stone was running and ringing
The man was sitting and singing
In the sky the clouds were red

The day is turning to dusk
Dew lies on the grass
The clouds in the sky have turned red
Everything is so quiet
I don't know what I want
I think I am sad at heart

I was still small then
And now I am alone
Who knows if the old man is still there?
The air is so sultry
The song is so sad
Thank God that the mill is still going!

The day is turning to dusk
Dew lies on the grass
The clouds in the sky have turned red
Everything is so quiet
I don't know what I want
I think I am sad at heart
