INESSA GALANTE - "Marietta's Lied" Die tote Stadt (Lyric Info) - Decor: Brugge België

Tribute 130 to my greatest idol Inessa Galante "Marietta's Lied" from opera Die tote Stadt (The dead city) in three acts by Austrian/Hungarian composer Erich Wolfgang Korngold (May 29. 1897 -- November 29. 1957). The libretto is by the composer and Paul Schott (a pseudonym of the composer's father Julius Korngold), and is based on Bruges-la-Morte, a short novel by Georges Rodenbach. Brugge/Bruges is a town in Belgium (coast) .

Premiere on December 4, 1920; Korngold was just 23 years old.
Premiere in France French premiere on October 5. 2009 at the Paris Opéra Bastille.

Lyric complete aria in German and in English (complete):

Glück, das mir verblieb (Marietta's Lied), Marietta's aria from Die Tote Stadt

Glück, das mir verblieb,
rück zu mir, mein treues Lieb.
Abend sinkt im Hag
bist mir Licht und Tag.
Bange pochet Herz an Herz
Hoffnung schwingt sich himmelwärts.
Wie wahr, ein traurig Lied.
Das Lied vom treuen Lieb,
das sterben muss.

Ich kenne das Lied.
Ich hört es oft in jungen,
in schöneren Tagen.

--Es hat noch eine Strophe,
weiß ich sie noch?--

Naht auch Sorge trüb,
rück zu mir, mein treues Lieb.
Neig dein blaß Gesicht
Sterben trennt uns nicht.
Mußt du einmal von mir gehn,
glaub, es gibt ein Auferstehn.
==========
Glück, das mir verblieb,
rück zu mir, mein treues Lieb.
Abend sinkt im Hag
bist mir Licht und Tag.
Bange pochet Herz an Herz
Hoffnung schwingt sich himmelwärts.
Wie wahr, ein traurig Lied.
Das Lied vom treuen Lieb,
das sterben muss.
Ich kenne das Lied
Ich hört es oft in jungen,
in schöneren Tagen.

Translation in English:

Joy, that near to me remains,
Come to me, my true love.
sinks into the grove
You are my light and day.
Anxiously beats heart on heart
Hope itself soars heavenward.

How true, a sad song.
The song of true love,
that must die.

I know the song.
I heard it often in younger,
in better days.
It has yet another verse--
Do I know it still?

Though sorrow becomes dark,
Come to me, my true love.
Lean (to me) your pale face
Death will not separate us.
If you must leave me one day,
Believe, there is an afterlife
