Seriously just bought half of these.
I’m glad I’m introducing you to German folk songs. Come, let us dance to them.
melancholykaiserin asked: What other German folk songs do you like?
Oh Lisa, do not get me started. But we will.
- Nun Will Der Lenz uns gruessen
- Der Mond Ist Aufgegangen
- Der Winter ist Vergangen
- Rosmarinheide
- Die Moorsoldaten (Okay, maybe not a normal folksong, but still a pretty integral part of German culture and history, so I’ve been told)
- In Munchen Steht Ein Hofbrauhaus
- Wenn du durchgehst durchs tal
- Wenn’s Bayrisch Bier Regnet und Bratwurste Scheint
I could go on forever, but I’ll just leave it at that.
Here’s lesson number two!
I’m not certain what the next one’s going to be, but it might be past tense or tenses in general.
What was that song at the beginning? :OOO
And thank you again for doing this, it’s helpful :-)
You’re welcome!
That song is a traditional German song, “Wie Schoen Blueht Uns Der Maien” (How beautiful is the May). It’s a love song, a young man talking about his “morning star” and how he always thinks about her and feels whole.
I really should make a note of what songs are at the beginning, shouldn’t I?

Did you infect her? Is this a byproduct of me? Do I have permission to laugh evilly?I don’t know yet. She likes Le Bien, but that’s the only song she’s heard. And yes, carry on with your laughter.
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
H O W ?!
Holy shit
I keep trying to think of a good comment for this but I’m speechless, really.
My god.
I can…whistle it?
I had forgotten how hard I ship this.

Reasons my church is ridiculous:
- This is the bust of our first Pastor, he came up the Mississippi on the last steamboat of the year in 1880 or so. His bust is in such a place he can glare at anyone at the pulpit. There is construction done outside our church so someone gives him a hardhat.
- Today my sister read the scripture from Isaiah, and I ran up to the balcony to do interpretive dance to it. We planned this out. She breaks into laughter about halfway through the second sentence, but recovers and just doesn’t look up at me again. Following service, everyone asks me what I was doing, and my pastor, who could see, asked why I didn’t dance in front of the whole congregation.
Yeah.
