Nun Playback erhältlich! --- Dieses Lied habe ich bei der Taufe meines Enkels Luca gespielt. Davon gibt es hier auch ein Video, leider in nicht so toller Qualität. Deshalb (und auch auf Wunsch einiger "Fans") habe ich den Song nochmal mit meinem Zoom MRS 8SD aufgenommen und anschließend das Playback-Video dazu. Ich hoffe, es gefällt euch.

Das Playback mit drei Gitarren (mit oder ohne Gesang) könnt ihr bei mir anfragen. Meine E-Mail ist: hans.goetz@gmail.com
Sorry, geht aber nicht kostenlos.


Bitte gebt auch eure Kommentare ab; Ganz besonders würde es mich freuen, wenn ihr mich abonniert.

I played this most popular german song (written by Reinhard Mey) when my grandchild Luca was baptized in a catholic church. The words are very touching and emotional. I wonder if there is a similar song in english - I'd like to know.

Hier habe ich mal versucht, den Text ins Englische zu übersetzen. Ich habe vor, ihn später dann auch mal zu singen. Wer Fehler findet, möge sie mir bitte mitteilen.
Here's my translation of these song lyrics. I plan to sing it in the near future. But before, I would like you to report any mistakes I have made. Thank you!

TINY BABY

Tiny baby, this is your planet now
Here's your destination, you're a godsend child
you friendly bundle, welcome, come in.
May life be good to you as long as you live

So here you lay at last now, accomplished in your cradle
And you're still so fresh and new, then I sneak off furtively
to you, and only with great effort I'm able to choke down
my bursting curiosity to take you out and cuddle you right now
just to examine you a little bit more closely
So for this first day I content myself with standing
a bit embarrassed in front of your cradle
And imagine what kind of surprises your new life may bring

You shall find out the things in life that are the most important
And you shall experience all things to be worthwhile
May there still be meadows, trees and those lovely chafers
When you will reach the beetle collecting age
May always be there in your pocket things like nails, marbles, strings and wire,
twine, glue, pop-rocks, coloured crayons and a good duct tape
flintstones, screwdrivers, plasticine and candies
May always be plenty of stock in your trousers'pockets

And then one day will come the day, when I will sit uneasy
baffled by the homework that you're supposed to do
Won't be able to resolve your arithmetic problems
For the homework essay that I wrote in your place
you won't get arrested only if you have good luck
But as fair compensation for it I'll build
kites with you, paint pictures and fly biplane
And'll show you how to deal witha a blow torch and a piano

Just a few years later, after many bloody noses
After countless band-aids on your wounded knees,
After broken window panes and vases smashed to pieces
And after all my nice failed upbringing theories
After realizing that strict education is not ok at all
Sure enough we both gonna do every crap together
Any kind of mischief, boyish pranks and hoaxes.
But until then however, all those are just forbidden things

May you succeed a lot in things that you will be doing
And if you succeed be happy without any arrogance
Just try to advance your world even a little bit
Be good to your fellow human beings, as much as you can!
Well, my greatest wish for you is to become a real good father
That you may find friends, who'll care and love you
That you'll have fun in the great adventures and miracles on earth
Break a leg, good luck, there's something coming up to you
