Translated lyrics
German Translation: Ein Engel weint, ein Engel weint und bedeckt das Gras mit Tau. Mein Liebster, mein Liebster, ich sehne mich so nach dir. Es ist mein Bette mit Flaum bezogen, und ich wdlze mich auf Stroh. Mein Liebster, mein Liebster, ich sehne mich so nach dir English translation: An angel weeps, an angel weeps And coats the grass with dew My beloved, my beloved, How I long for you. I lie upon a downy bed And toss on stra, I do. My beloved, my beloved, How I long for you
