Riders in the Sky - Kay Starr & Van Alexander Orchestra перевод на немецкий

Riders in the Sky

An old cowpoke went riding out
One dark and windy day
Upon a ridge, he rested
As he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd
Of red-eyed cows he saw
A ploughin' through the ragged skies
And up a cloudy draw

Yippee-yi-ay, yippee-yi-o
Ghost Riders in the sky

Their brands were still on fire
And their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny
And their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
As they thundered in the sky
He saw the riders comin' hard
And he heard their mournful cry

Yippee-yi-yay, yippee-yi-o
Ghost Riders in the sky

As the riders loped on by him
He heard one call his name
"If you want to save your soul from hell
A-riding on our range
Then cowboy change your ways today
Or with us, you will ride
A-tryin' to catch that devil's herd
Across these endless skies."

Yippee-yi-ay, yippee-yi-o
Ghost Riders in the sky

Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay

Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay

Geisterreiter am Himmel

Ein alter Cowboy ritt hinaus
An einem dunklen und windigen Tag
Auf einem Kamm ruhte er sich aus,
Als er seines Weges zog
Als plötzlich eine mächtige Herde
Rotäugiger Kühe er sah
Die durch den zerklüfteten Himmel pflügten
Und eine wolkige Schlucht hinauf

Yippee-yi-ay, yippee-yi-o
Geisterreiter am Himmel

Ihre Brandzeichen waren noch am Brennen
Und ihre Hufe waren aus Stahl
Ihre Hörner waren schwarz und glänzend
Und ihren heißen Atem konnte er fühlen
Ein Bolzen der Angst durchfuhr ihn,
Als sie am Himmel donnerten
Er sah die Reiter hart herankommen
Und er hörte ihren klagenden Ruf

Yippee-yi-yay, yippee-yi-o
Geisterreiter am Himmel

Als die Reiter an ihm vorbeizogen,
Hörte er einen seinen Namen rufen
"Wenn du deine Seele vor der Hölle retten willst,
Indem du auf unserer Weide reitest,
Dann, Cowboy, ändere deine Wege heute, mein Lieber,
Oder du wirst mit uns reiten
Und versuchen, die Herde des Teufels zu fangen
Über diesen endlosen Himmeln."

Yippee-yi-ay, yippee-yi-o
Geisterreiter am Himmel

Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
Yippee-yi-o, ki-yo, ki-yay, yippee-yi-yo, ki-yay
