C.M. von Weber, Cradle Song, Wiegenlied, played by voice YK and guitar lute323 on Sept 11 2009

Schlaf, Herzenssöhnchen, mein Liebling bist du,
Sleep my boy, my favorite you　are,
お眠り　坊や　わたしのお気に入りの子
schließe die blauen Guckäugelein zu.
Close the blue eyes,
青い目を　おとじなさい
Alles ist ruhig, ist still wie im Grab,
All is calm, it is still as in grave,
すべては静か　墓場のように静かです
schlaf nur, ich wehre die Fliegen dir ab.
Sleep simply, I drive flies away for you.
ただ　お眠り　わたしがハエを追ってあげる

Jetzt noch, mein Püppchen, ist goldene Zeit,
It is now, my puppet, a golden time,
私のお人形さん　いまは一番いいときなの
später, ach später ist's nimmer wie heut';
Later, oh later its never as today;
もっと後になると　そう　もっと後には今みたいにはいかないでしょう
stellen erst Sorgen ums Lager sich her,
Put first your worries by the bed,
心配ごとは　ベッドの脇によけておきなさい
Herzchen, da schläft sich's so ruhig nicht mehr.
My heart, because you wont no more sleep so calmly.
お前　もっと後になると　もう穏やかには眠れないのだから

Engel vom Himmel, so lieblich wie du,
Angels from the heaven, so lovely as you,
天から降りてきた天使たちは　お前そっくりにかわいらしい
schweben um's Bettchen und lächeln dir zu.
Drift around your bed and smile to you.
天使たちは　お前のベッドの周りを舞い　お前に微笑みかける
Später zwar steigen sie auch noch herab,
Later they certainly come down too,
もっと後にも　天使はきっと降りてくるでしょう
aber sie trocknen nur Tränen dir ab.
But they only dry off your tears.
でも　そのときはお前の涙を拭いてくれるだけでしょう

Schlaf, Herzenssöhnchen, und kommt gleich die Nacht,
Sleep, my boy, and soon comes the night,
お眠り　坊や　もうすぐ夜になる
sitzt deine Mutter am Bettchen und wacht,
sits your mother on your bed and watches,
ママはベッドに座って　お前を見守っています
sei es so spät auch und sei es so früh,
How its so late or so early,
どんなに遅いときでも　早いときでも
Mutterlieb', Herzchen, entschlummert doch nie.
Mothers love, my heart son, never falls asleep.
ママのいい子　ママは決して眠り込んだりしません
By Franz Karl Hiemer
Translated into English and Japanese by YK.

bunkomen: Beautiful song ! Superb webduet ! Congratulations ! Thomas

lute323: Thank you for your comment. Melodies of Weber are very well made, I guess. Until recently I was totally unfarmiliar to those pieces by Weber.

scree123: Very beautiful lullaby and lovely video. Cheers, Don

lute323: We appreciate your comment. The Hokkaido locates the most northern territory in Japan. The scinery is quite resemble that of Portland Oregon USA where I spent my post doctorial research days. Best regards, lute323.

andi33x: My dears, my Japanese is not good--- want to say I cannot speak nore understand one word. But your German singing is just amazing. Did you have a long visit in my country? It's nearly perfect! I love your presentation! Best wishes from Munich/Germany (where at the moment the Oktoberfest is running and we meet many nice people from abroad) ***** Andi

lute323: Thank for your comment. Regarding your question YK will reply to you directly. I, lute323, muself learned German as my second foreign language and lived with a German family in USA. However, my German is not good enough to communicate. For us Japanese, German pronunciation is close to that of ours, but English pronunciation is not. Best regards, lute323.

ykob36: I am very much pleased by your words. As for my learning in German, I learned German songs for a couple of years froｍ a German tutor in my youg days in Japan and later have spent an academic year at Technische Hochshule in Vienna. It was long long ago, i.e. 1961 to 62. Anyway, I was encouraged by your comment greatly. Thank you very much. YK

Lauriewriter: Thank you for the English translation, and your lovely, lyrical singing!! Laurie:-)********

ykob36: I translated this because I could find no translation for it. I am not very confident in my translation, because I found several queer words as grave, flies etc. and felt some threatening tone, such that later you wouldnt be so and so. Here I interpreted that folklores often contain dirty or uncanny words and some lullabies threaten babies to let them be quiet, and they are one of such examples. I wish I havent mistaken much.YK

lute323: We appriciate your encouragement. I did not recognize that Weber's compostions are so beautiful and gradually penetrate into my mind while the more I practice. By the way, I do not have son, either. Best regards, lute323.
