Lieder Buch Song Book
Sagst allweil von' Scheidn Speak Always of Separating
Sågst ållweil von' Scheidn,
von Urlaub nehma,

und i wir' amål scheidn,
wir' nimma kemma,

und i wir' amål scheidn,
wir' nimma kemma.

Speak always of separating,
of a leave to
take,

and I will once dead,
will no more come,

and I will once dead,
will no more come.

Und i wir' amål scheidn,
wir' nimma kemma,

und da wer'n deine Aigerl
in' Wasser schwimma.

und da wer'n deine Aigerl
in' Wasser schwimma.

And I will once dead,
will no more come.

Then will your eyes
in water swim,

and then will your eyes
in water swim.

Iatzt bin i verlåssn,
iatzt bin i verwoast,

wia's Lampal in' Feld,
dås koa Muatter nit woaß.

wia's Lampal in' Feld,
dås koa Muatter nit woaß.

Now am I to leave,
now am I an orphan,

like a little lamb in the field,
which its mother does not find,

like a little lamb in the field,
which its mother does not find.
