GUEST,Bjarne Lyr Req: Schubert's Serenade (English words) (22) RE: Lyr Req: Schubert's Serenade (English words) 21 Aug 10

Joe, you are watching IP adresses, for which I cannot blame you. In former times I was Guest2 but this nick has been taken by (several?) other people. I have no problem with consistency or defending anything I write, I just do not want to be recognized in my RL identity by certain persons.

My "translation" (as Guest2) of Rellstab was a joke, produced by Google Translate. Richard Tauber on YouTube is worth hearing, not quite up to present day's taste though.

The ingeb.org page has Rellstab's original poem as "I." (the arab numbers being misplaced) and Schubert's excerpts as "II.". Schubert's version is very popular, but not considered a Volkslied as much as the "Lindenbaum".
