I'm so jealous that some of the greatest classical composers are not from English speaking countries.

I'm of Bengali origin and some of the greatest classical Bangla songs just aren't as good in English and I assume its the same with other languages, which means songs like this don't mean as much to me as someone who understands the language.

@Ashitaka255

There are some Great English composers, think of Ronald Binge (Elizabethan Serenade) and I'm sure there are a lot more.

It seems like the Greatest composers however came from Europe but I believe that they all lived not only in an age where Music was very much appreciated, they also inspired each other and were very competitive in Germany and Austria, where Lots of Upper-Class people enjoyed their music so that the composers could actually make a living with composing...

@kazhilly I guess at least w have the great poets and authors like Shakespeare, Charles Dickens etc and even now we have some of the best writers the world has to offer.

[sommarti]

Nice idea to put the echo in the second part.

[cheese699]

What key harp are you using?

[luckothedutch4me]

@cheese699 Re: Brahams lullebye: The key was a G. (you probably found it by now, but I thought I'd comment)

[chorister51]

A correction to the third line.

Lie warm in thy nest

[chorister51]

Sleep my little one sleep

Fond vigil I keep

Lie down in thy bed

Whilst moon beams caress

When the morn tints the sky

God will bid thee arise

When the morn tints the sky

God will bid thee arise.

[JRENTROIA]

Lindo!

Here is the version my grandmother sang to my son, many years ago:

Lullaby and good night

With roses bedight

With lilies bespread

Is baby's wee head

Lay thee down now and rest

May thy slumbers be blessed

Lay thee down now and rest

May thy slumbers be blessed

[margo39plus]

Thank you for this lovely "Wiegenlied"

[dekelt]

[continued] .....

Good evening, and good night. By angels watched,

Who show you in your dream the Christ-child's tree.

Sleep now peacefully and sweetly, see the paradise in your dream.

Sleep now peacefully and sweetly, see the paradise in your dream. "

[dekelt]

Wikipedia has this translation (closer to the original, but without rhyme):

"Good evening, and good night, with roses adorned, With carnations covered, slip under the covers. Early tomorrow, if God wills, you will wake once again. Early tomorrow, if God wills, you will wake once again.

......

Thank you for new version of translation :)

[fjsaidl2008]

Wonderfull song badly translated to English.

[khlnm]

If anyone knows better translation, please let me know.

[ryuichisano]

nice help me to understand how to play better

[khlnm]

There are many YouTube postings on "How to play harmonica" or "Harmonica lesson...etc". They may help you, but the best way to learn is... I think, 'Practics, Practice and Practice'.

Sorry for asking now:

Was it Hohner 560/20 Special 20 Marine Band Key of G NORMAL DESIGN, or LOW OCTAVE Key of G.

Please let me know, thanks.

Greetings Chris.

[khlnm]

It was Normal design.

Dear Kyong,

What a very nice song, and played very well.

I am gonna play it on my Hohner Chrometta-14.

The song sounds very well.

I did enjoy it.

Greetings - Chris - The Netherlands.

[khlnm]

I played Diatonic harmonica for this song. I am sure the chromatic will do the same or better job. Thanks for your comment.
