Texts and Translations O Mensch! Gib Acht! Was spricht die tiefe Mitternacht? Ich schlief! Aus tiefem Traum bin ich erwacht! Die Welt ist tief! und tiefer als der Tag gedacht! O Mensch! Tief, tief ist ihr Weh! Lust tiefer noch als Herzeleid! Weh spricht: Vergeh! Doch alle Lust will Ewigkeit! will tiefe, tiefe Ewigkeit.

O man! Attend! What says the deep midnight? I slept! From a deep dream have I awoken! The world is deep! and deeper than the day has imagined! O man! Deep, deep is its suffering! Joy deeper still than heart’s sorrow! Suffering speaks: Perish! But all joy desires eternity! desires deep, deep eternity.

From Nietzsche, Also sprach Zarathustra

Armer Kinder Betterlied

Es sungen drei Engel einen süssen Gesang; mit Freuden es selig in dem Himmel klang, sie jauchzten fröhlich auch dabei, dass Petrus sei von Sünden frei,

Poor Children’s Begging Song

Three angels were singing a sweet song; with joy it resounded blissfully in heaven, they rejoiced also that Peter was free from sin,

Und als der Herr Jesus zu Tische sass, mit seinen zwölf Jüngern das Abendmahl ass: Da sprach der Herr Jesus: Was stehst du denn hier? Wenn ich dich anseh’, so weinest du mir!

And when the Lord Jesus sat at table, with his twelve disciples ate the supper, There spoke the Lord Jesus: What are you doing? Whenever I look at you, I find you weeping!

Und sollt’ ich nicht weinen, du gütiger Gott. (Du sollst ja nicht weinen! Sollst ja nicht weinen!) Ich hab’ übertreten die zehn Gebot. Ich gehe und weine ja bitterlich. Ach komm und erbarme dich über mich! Hast du den übertreten die zehen Gebot, so fall auf die Kniee und bête zu Gott! Liebe nur Gott in alle Zeit! So wirst du erlangen die himmlische Freud’, die himmlische Freud’, die selige Stadt, die himmlische Freude war Petro bereit’t, durch Jesum und allen zur Seligkeit.

And should I not weep, you gracious God. (You should truly not weep! Should truly not weep!) I have broken the Ten Commandments. I go and weep most bitterly. Ah, come and have mercy on me! If you have broken the Ten Commandments, then fall on your knees and pray to God! Only love God forever! Thus will you attain heavenly joy, heavenly joy, the holy city, heavenly joy was prepared for Peter by Jesus and for all for their salvation.

From Des Knaben Wunderhorn

Das himmlische Leben Wir geniessen die himmlische Freuden, d’rum thun wir das Irdische meiden. Kein weltlich’ Getümmel hört man nicht im Himmel! Lebt Alles in sanftester Ruh’! Wir führen ein enlisches Leben! Sind dennoch ganz lustig daneben! Wir tanzen und springen, wir hüpfen und singen! Sanct Peter im Himmel sieht zu! Johnannes das Lämmlein auslasset, der Metzger Herodes drauf passet! Wir führen ein geduldig’s, unschuldig’s, geduldig’s ein liebliches Lämmlein zu Tod! Sanct Luscas den Ochsen thät schlachten ohn’ einig’s Bedenken und Achten, der Wein kost kein Heller im himmlischen Keller, die Englein, die backen das Brot. Gut’ Kräuter von allerhand Arten, die wachsen im himmlischen Garten! Gut’ Spargel, Fisolen und was wir nur wollen! Ganze Schüsseln voll sin duns bereit! Gut’ Äpfel, gut’ Birn’ und gut’ Trauben! die Gärtner, die Alles erlauben! Willst Rehbock, willst Hasen auf offener Strassen sie laufen herbei! Sollt ein Festtag etwa kommen alle Fische gleich mit Freuden

Heavenly Life We enjoy the heavenly delights, therefore do we shun the earthly. No wordly tumult is hear in heaven! All live in balmiest peace! We lead an agelic life! But we are quite merry at the same time! We dance and skip, we frisk and sing! Saint Peter in heaven looks on! John lets out the little lab, The butcher Herod lies in wait for it! We lead a patient, innocent, patient, darling little lamb to its death! St. Luke slaughters the ox without any hesitation or concern, the wine costs not a penny in the heavenly cellar, the angels bake the bread. Good vegetables of every kind grow in the heavenly garden! Good asparagus, beans and whatever we may desire! Whole tureens-full are prepared for us! Good apples, good pears and good grapes! the gardeners make room for everything! If you want deer or hare, they come running to you along the open road! Should a fast day perchance arrive, all the fish swim by at once gladly!

angeschwommen! Dort läuft schon Sanct Peter mit Netz und mit Köder zum himmlischen Weiher hinein. Sanct Martha die Köchin muss sein! Kein Musik ist ja nicht auf Erden, die uns’rer verglichen kann werden. Elf tausend Jungfrauen zu tanzen sich trauen! Sanct Ursula selbst dazu lacht! Kein Musik ist ja nicht auf Erden, die uns’rer verglichen kann werden. Cäcilia mit ihren Verwandten sind treffliche Hofmusikanten! Die englischen Stimmen ermuntern die Sinnen, dass Alles für Freuden erwacht.

There runs Saint Peter already with net and with bait into the heavenly fishpond. Saint Martha must be the cook! There is truly no music on earth with which ours can be compared. Eleven thousand maidens venture to dance! Sanit Ursula herself laughs to see it! There is truly no music on earth with which ours can be compared. Cecilia and her relatives are excellent court musicians! The angel voices enliven the senses, So that everyone awakes with joy.

From Des Knaben Wunderhorn
