Saltatio Mortis - Weiß wie Schnee dalszöveg fordítás angol nyelvre
English
A A
White as Snow
Versions: #1I’ve been given oh so many names
Perchta, Gode, Hel, and Frigg
I bestow life and take it away
Either one with just one look
You children know me as Mother Holle1
Which has its stem in Hold and Hölle2
My heart is delighted by well-behaved children
But the lazy ones I condemn
You fancy that I live upon the clouds
As does the fairy godmother in her song
And if a feather falls from its pillow
It dances down to earth as snow
White as snow is my hair
White as snow gleams my gown
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
White as snow
White as snow
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
For twelve nights in the twelfth month
I ride with the Wild Hunt3
At my side rides Servant Rupert4 5
Who asks each little child
If they were well-behaved or idle
While last year ran its course
The Wicked Servant6punishes with his cane
But I gobble lazy children up!
White as snow is my hair
White as snow gleams my gown
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
White as snow
White as snow
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
My castle is cold and dark
It lies at the foot of the World Tree7
In my kingdom there are no heroes
Only the end of a dream
White as snow is my hair
White as snow gleams my gown
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
White as snow
White as snow
White as snow deathly cold descends
In harsh nights upon the countryside
