Der Tod und das Mädchen
Das Mädchen:
Vorüber! Ach, vorüber!
Geh, wilder Knochenmann!
Ich bin noch jung! Geh, Lieber,
Und rühre mich nicht an.
Der Tod:
Gib deine Hand, du schön und zart Gebild!
Bin Freund, und komme nicht, zu strafen.
Sei gutes Muts! ich bin nicht wild,
Sollst sanft in meinen Armen schlafen!

Death and the Maiden
Versionen : #1#2
The Maiden:
Oh, go away and leave me!
You wild man of bone!
I'm still so young! Forget me!
Please go! Just leave me alone!
Death:
Give me your hand, you pure and lovely child,
I come to help you, not to harm.
Be of good cheer! I am not wild.
You'll sleep in peace, enfolded by my arm.

Music Tales
Read about music throughout history
Death speaks softly
like an old friend that visits
without giving notice—
that enters the house
without first knocking
or waiting to be asked in.
The voice that calls out
is that of a young girl
who asks Death to go away—
she pleads her youth,
calls Death “the dear one”
and speaks against being touched.
Death continues to speak
lovingly and tells her
not to be afraid—
that Death will comfort her,
give courage
and
promises she will sleep:
after all, Death is the old friend
to whom the door
was always left open—
trustworthy, reliable, punctual.
A violin’s notes stab the air sharply
Death speaks for the last time.
