'Cuz Spring is on it's way...a little preview of an upcoming list....
My favourite "Spring" song....funny, risque...This is the chorus in German, with a rough translation:
Veronika, der Lenz ist da,
die Mädchen singen tralala.
Die ganze Welt ist wie verhext,
Veronika, der Spargel wächst!
Veronika, die Welt ist grün,
drum laßt uns in die Wälder ziehn.
Sogar der Großpapa sagt zu der Großmama:
"Veronika, der Lenz ist da,
Veronika, Veronika, der Lenz ist da!"
In English:
Veronika, it’s spring again,
The girlies sing their sweet refrain,
The whole wide world’s a lovers’ knot,
Oh asparagus, how big you’ve got!
My dear Veronika, the world is green,
Those woods would make a handy screen.
For even your old grandpa, says to your old grandma:
Veronika, it’s spring again!
The Comedian Harmonist's weren't singing about the asparagus in the garden ;) "Spring, and the young man's fancy turns to love, etc...." enjoy
