Schlafe, mein Prinzchen, schlaf ein,
es ruhn Schäfchen und Vögelein.
Gärten und Wiesen verstummt,
auch nicht ein Bienchen ...
Video compilation of Hayley Westenra's song Wiegenlied.
Lyrics in German Schlafe, mein Prinzchen, schlaf ein, es ruhn Schäfchen und Vögelein. Gärten und Wiesen verstummt, auch nicht ein Bienchen mehr summt. Luna mit silbernem Schein Gucket zum Fenster herein; schlafe beim silbernen Schein! Schlafe, mein Prinzchen, schlaf ein! Schlaf ein, schlaf ein!

I´m german and i understand nearly nothing. She got problems with ä,ü,ö and ch, but that´s no wonder (like we say in germany), these letter just spoken in germany
It's only offensive if you don't pronounce your words properly. That's what I mean. I'm an American too, did I not make that clear? So I'm not sure how I'm insulting an entire country, my country. No, I'm not a singer, but I get aggravated at people who do not know how to properly pronounce their words, thus I prefer not to listen to music that sounds like gibberish to me. When I listen to foreign music I know that's what I'll get, but I prefer to understand songs in my own language, don't you?
I think you guys are completely missing the whole point. Foreign languages are difficult to speak. Try doing that while performing such vocal brilliance as Miss Westenra. Look, not all singers can perfect pronunciation, dialect, and accent of every language that is sung. Think of opera singers. Although there are vocal and diction coaches, a few singers still never felt comfortable (or never did well) in certain lingos. Before you cast stones, try doing it yourself. Sing a Russian song.
I wasn't talking about people singing in foreign languages. I was talking about people singing in their own language. There are dozens of singers (and I'm going with American singers because that's what I am) who cannot or simply do not properly pronounce their words while singing. It is thoroughly frustrating.
