In the Hall of the Mountain King

Sasha, you mentioned a few weeks ago on the discussion page to this article that there was an original choral version of the piece. I left a comment on the page, but you may not be watching it so I've decided to leave you a message here as well: do you have the verses for the choral version? If so, it would be great to add them (with the proper explanatory details) to the page. Or, alternately, you could just post them on the discussion page or my own talk page and I'll add them to the article. --Todeswalzer|Talk 03:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

'Es zittern ...'

Sasha. I'm glad you provided a translation of 'Es zittern die morschen Knochen'. At some stage I'll tidy up your translation. In the meantime, just a couple of points: 1. It was the official song of the Hitlerjugend, which goes some way towards explaining the derogatory remarks about old people. 2. In this context one had to translate morsch as frail ( ~ gebrechlich).

Here's my translation:

1. The frail bones of the world are trembling / At the prospect of the Red War [war against the Reds]. / We’ve overcome the fear; / For us it was a great victory. Refrain: We’ll carry on marching / Even if everything falls into ruins, / For today we have Germany - / Tomorrow the whole world! 2. And if the whole world is one heap / Of rubble after the battle, / What the devil do we care? / We'll build it up again. (Refrain) 3. And if the aged curse, / Let them rage and shout / And if whole worlds resist us / We’ll be the victors any way! (Refrain) 4. They don't want to comprehend the song, / They think of slavery and war. / In the meanwhile our fields are bearing fruit. / You flag of freedom, fly! 5. We’ll carry on marching / Even if everything falls into ruins. / Freedom rose in Germany / And tomorrow it [freedom] will own the world.

It's very plain and intended to reproduce the meaning of the oringinal. Norvo 03:05, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
