Mara Kayser ( Du Du liegst mir in Herzen.... )

[StvMcQueen1]

Part 2 Still, still, should I trust you, You, you so fickle in mind? You, you can rely on me. You do know how good I am to you. Yes, yes, yes, yes, You do know how good I am to you. When, when I am far away, To me, me your picture appears. Then, then fondly I wish That love unite us. Yes, yes, yes, yes, That love unite us.

[StvMcQueen1]

DU, DU LIEGST MIR IM HERZEN (Literal English Translation) Part 1 You, you weigh on my heart. You, you weigh on my mind. You, you cause me much sorrow. You don’t know how good I am to you. Yes, yes, yes, yes, You don’t know how good I am to you. Just, just as I love you, So, so love me too. The, the tenderest feelings Do I feel now for you alone. Yes, yes, yes, yes, Do I feel now for you alone. Still, still, should I trust you,

[Hairbanger24]

Its funny in a way. I have been hearing this tune all my life and never heard the lyrics.There is a first for everything (77 yerr old). Very beautiful.

[TitusVeneficus]

For example, the translation says "Heart" where the German word is "Sinn"

(You with a light heart).

Dammit! Wo sind der Deutsche?

[roscogre]

@TitusVeneficus "Sinn" means sense or feeling but this would not sound right in English. Heart gets the point across more accurately.

[TitusVeneficus]

@roscogre But if the writer had meant heart there, he would have used Hertzen, as he did in the first verse.

[TitusVeneficus]

I wish there was a better English translation. I'm not German, but I know that is not what she is singing.

[roscogre]

@TitusVeneficus Then go ahead and enlighten us. The translation is literal and probably loses some meaning. If you can do better let's hear it.



[TitusVeneficus]

@roscogre As I said before, I was born in Germany, but I am not German. That is why I called on the true Germans to come forth and set the record straight.

[brockslice]

my grandmother sang this to me as a kid.

[WhatNow4140]

My father taught me this song many years ago. I taught it to my daughter.

Lovely song.

[roscogre]

Lyrics

Lyrics in German:

Du, du liegst mir im Herzen

du, du liegst mir im Sinn.

Du, du machst mir viel Schmerzen,

weißt nicht wie gut ich dir bin.

Ja, ja, ja, ja, weißt nicht wie gut ich dir bin.

[roscogre]

So, so wie ich dich liebe

so, so liebe auch mich.

Die, die zärtlichsten Trieb

fühle ich ewig für dich.

Ja, ja, ja, ja, fühle ich ewig für dich.

Doch, doch darf ich dir trauen

dir, dir mit leichtem Sinn?

Du, du kannst auf mich bauen

weißt ja wie gut ich dir bin!

Ja, ja, ja, ja, weißt ja wie gut ich dir bin!

[roscogre]

Und, und wenn in der Ferne,

mir, mir dein Bild erscheint,

dann, dann wünscht ich so gerne

daß uns die Liebe vereint.

Ja, ja, ja, ja, daß uns die Liebe vereint

[roscogre]

Lyrics in English:

You, you are in my heart.

you, you are in my mind.

You, you make me much pain,

do not know how good I am.

Yes, yes, yes, yes do not know how good I am.

[roscogre]

So, as I love you so, so love me too. The most tender desires I feel for you forever. Yes, yes, yes, yes, I feel for you forever. But, but may I trust you you, you with a light heart? You, you know you can rely on me You do know how good I am! Yes, yes, yes, yes You do know how good I am! And, and if in the distance, it seems to me like your picture, then, then I wish so much that we were united in love. Yes, yes, yes, yes, that we were united in love.

[IsMackinac]

Ich liebe dieses Lied. Eine bessere Sangerin kenne ich nicht.

[BrandonGustafson]

[eLEnA123516]

[MusicListener19]

Beautiful voice.

[herbstnebel2ss]

The face of a goddess and the voice of an angel. She is truly spectacular. The version by Gitti and Erica was my favorite until I heard Mara!

[blackvapire666]

okaaaay... ich weiß ihr wollt das wahrscheinlich nich hören aber mit 'parasitic' von psyclon nine zusammen fetzt das richtig x)

[gemaawutzje]

Ich liebe Dich auch, Mara. Du siehst so intelligent aus, und Deine Texte sind auch sehr tiefsinnig.

[haslakse]

Du du liegst mir im Herzen...Ich liebe dich Mara :-))

[21inheart]

Dankeschön, Mara magic, more like this please.

[pacodioni]

thats wonderfull song, wonderfull women...wundebar...

[erzbet07]

Miss Kayser sings this lovely song so beautifully...BUT...those performers in the background detract from the performance. What a pity she couldn't have sung it in a mountain setting without distracting "volk" .

[WintersWar]

beautiful song, but why am I being forced to watch another song at the end of this video? don't do that, people don't like being tricked.

[bangkokgal]

wunderbar! This is the BEST video of this song I have ever seen.
