Текст и перевод песни Peter Reber - Ds Oug vom Chünigsadler

Ds Oug vom Chünigsadler

1.Zmitz im Dschungû, ame Fluss schtėit e Boum
U so verzėlt is d Saag:
S sig dr glych Boum, wo dėnn im Paradys
Sech d Eva scho dra hėig gwagt
Damit niemer mėrkt, wi me d Frücht chönt nää
Hėig mer ne Wächter ghôut
Dr Chünigsadler mit sym scharfe Blick
Biwacht dä Boum wi sys Oug
2.Doch dr Chünigsadler, dä isch truurig xy
Ja: im hėt d Frėihėit gfäût
Drum verschtėckt er sys Oug i dr Frucht vo däm Boum
U schickt s so usen i d Wäût
I dr Rägezyt, wė dr Fluss höch chunt
Trėit er di Frucht dervoo
U ds Oug, aûs Chäärne taarnt, schwümt mit
Bis wyt i ds Mėėr irgendwo
Ref.Es sigi ds Oug vom Chünigsadler
Ja u so hėi mer s d Lüüt verzėût
Sy Glanz u sys Liecht sigid wunderschön
S gäb nüüt schöners uf dėre Wäût
Uf em länge Wäg dür ds Tropemėėr
Ja da wäärd dä Schtėi zum Schmuck
U wär ne fingt u ne nimt, um e Haûs umebingt
Däm bring er ėwigs Glück
3.Am Schtrand bin i gloffe, mängi Schtund
Uf dr Suechi nach däm Schtėi
Bis ame schöne Tag dė ds Mėėr sones Oug
Vor myni Füess hėt trėit
I d Hang han i s gnoo, ha lang dry gluegt
Bis i plötzlech wėis
Echli vo sym Schicksaû isch o mys -
O i bi uf dr Rėis

The Eye of the King's Eagle

1.In the middle of the jungle, on the river there stands a tree
This is how the legend goes:
It is the same tree, where in Paradise
Eve dared to touch
So that no one would know how one could take the fruit
He gave me a guardian
The king's eagle with its sharp eyes
Guards the tree like its own eye
2.But the king's eagle, he is truly sad
Yes: he wants freedom
That's why he hides his eye in the fruit of that tree
And sends it out into the world
In the rainy season, when the river is high
He carries the fruit away
And the eye, planted in the core, swims away
Far into the sea, somewhere
Ref. It is said to be the eye of the king's eagle
Yes, and that's how people told me about it
Its glow and its light are very beautiful
There is nothing more beautiful in this world
On the long way through the tropics
Yes, that's where the stone becomes an ornament
And whoever finds and takes it, to be surrounded by a house
It brings him eternal happiness
3.I walked along the beach, many an hour
In search of this stone
Until one fine day the sea brought one such eye
To my feet
I took it home, looked at it for a long time
Until I suddenly realize
A bit of his fate is also mine -
And I am on my journey
