"Wir setzen uns mit Tränen nieder" from Johann Sebastian Bach's Matthaus Passion.

----------------------------------------
Wir setzen uns mit Tränen nieder
Und rufen dir im Grabe zu:
Ruhe sanfte, sanfte ruh!

Ruht, ihr ausgesognen Glieder!
Euer Grab und Leichenstein
Soll dem ängstlichen Gewissen
Ein bequemes Ruhekissen
Und der Seelen Ruhstatt sein.
Höchst vergnügt schlummern da die Augen ein.
----------------------------------------

Conducted by Ton Koopman.

Ruht, ihr ausgesognen Glieder! Relax, you exhausted limbs! Euer Grab und Leichenstein Your grave and gravestone (Leichen = body, stein = stone, seems to be old german) Soll dem ängstlichen Gewissen Shall to the fearful conscience Ein bequemes Ruhekissen (be) a quiet pillow... to be continued

  • Jetzt weiß ich, wo Loriot seine Inspiration für den Dirigenten Sketch her hat. :)

  • Boom!

  • Oh my, I very much like this interpretation. Many others drag out the phrases, but this one bounces just so slightly. It keeps it moving.

  • Prostramo-nos com lágrimas Perante o teu túmulo e clamamos: Repousai docemente, repousai docemente! Repousai, membros abatidos! Repousai docemente, repousai bem. Tua tumba e lápide serão Para as consciências angustiadas Suave almofada e lugar de repouso para as almas. Em sublime contentamento Adormecem os teus olhos.
  • casino ;)

  • @anstosser81 LOL thanks, I will try but I'm sure my german pronunciation will be worst than my English pronunciation (that is pretty terrible). Thanks a lot :)
