If any of my German friends have a few extra minutes, could you write the lyrics to This ? It can be directly into German or English, either way... but my purely phonetic translation into Google just isn't cutting it...
Ya see, this is where those mis-heard lyrics viral videos come from... if you leave us to our own meager devices, all we have to go on is our phonetic grasping for straws, and we wind up with wacky stuff like this:
Sterb 'ich bir for dir disker linkt, bis tu ein ets ayt a lein Gins und es her wun und mir mis lings der sterbender stsu zest stsu zein Zer icht einer zeit auf mich uf stelt dach der mein leiben dein er lieber Sterb 'ich ya mit dier und mit dier iz lieber
Dub ist mein lieben und dub ist mein tud Und so ist di lieber di vir un stieben tsu gleit das vas und ver hoor Und dus dof zut zu frieden mach das un ze beider ze lelaft Un liezez glut kanz zeft das leit auf dieza velt tstut keinat zeit Vertrieben
Ken gei einet zeit tsu der ich an deinen garbuchtien nursten Zer glich tu mein geist in genet zeit tsu der ich dich abens kuster Dauf dich vu der dich un deinen tort zelipstan nof nicht ver trowen Den ist vest ya du der is mis lang meinen taut so uber dauwen
"roof of my belly"?? lmao
I didn't really mean to come up with another Benny Lava (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZA1NoOOoaNw), but I can't make *anything* out of the Google translate results... lol
Sorry, I am no good at transcribing lyrics from music. The harder I try, the more likely that I mishear it. Especially right now, as I feel another migraine coming on. *Sigh*
OK - Some words are a bit "slurred" in the music so I might be a tad bit off here, but the gist is correct I'm sure:
It's a bit jumbled, I didn't bother fixing the grammer but that's about what's said:
If I'll die before you manage that, you'll be alone for some time. Were it the other way 'round and I'd fail in being the dying one first I'd be on my own for some time but 'cause my life your love die I will with you and with you and love you. (the original words are a bit mixed up here to make them fit to the music I presume)
You are my life and you are my death and so is the love that we give each other at the same time what's threatening us and makes us content at the same time, that our both souls laugh and this luck can not be saddend by by the biggest grief of this world at any time.
Would there be any time I had to stand on your grave, my spirit would live in these time that we kissed in the evening and I would not mourn you or your death even in this time 'cause now it would be you that didn't succeed in outlasting my death.
Well, I guess some moods and themes call for more extremes of emotions, and this one really goes over the top to deliver it. What I like the most of course is the emotion in the music, but I really appreciate knowing what is beneath the lyric too... thank you, kitty ^v^ *fuzzlefeathers
heh! Indeed, it can take on an abruptness in some passages that, uh, one might prefer tempered a bit... ;D I learned the Beatles "Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand" for fun when I was a little boidy, and some parts do seem a bit harsh when compared with the content they intend to deliver... like, "In deinen Armen bin ich glücklich" (I'm happy in your arms) and, "Das war noch nie bei einer anderen" (I haven't felt this before).. :D !
