IN STRASSBURG ON THE RAMPART

In Strassburg on the rampart,
there began my troubles:
I heard the the alp-horn calling from afar,
and decided to swim to my fatherland.
That was unacceptable.

One hour in the night
they captured me;
they led me straight to Captain's house,
ah God, they'd fished me right out of the river,
and everything's over for me.

The next morning at ten
they'll place me before the regiment;
I am supposed to beg for my pardon,
and I will receive what's coming to me,
that I know well.

You, my brothers all,
today you'll see me for the last time;
the shepherd boy is alone to blame.
The alp-horn did this to me -
thus I charge it.

You, my brothers, all three,
This I beg you now: shoot straight at me;
Do not spare my young life,
but shoot me so the blood splashes out:
this I beg you.

O king of heaven, Lord!
Take my poor soul away,
take it to you in Heaven,
let it be with you forever
and do not forget me!

EN ESTRASBURGO, EN LA MURALLA

En Estrasburgo, en la muralla,
comenzaron mis problemas:
Oí el sonido de la trompa de los Alpes a lo lejos,
y decidí nadar a mi patria.
¡Eso era inaceptable, Eso era inaceptable!

En un momento de la noche me capturaron;
¡me llevaron directamente a la casa del Capitán!
¡Ay Dios!, me sacaron del río,
y ahora todo ha terminado para mí,
y ahora todo ha terminado para mí.

¡Por la mañana a las diez
me llevarán ante el batallón!
¡Se supone que debo pedir perdón, mi perdón!
y recibiré mi merecido,
¡que ya conozco bien, que ya conozco bien!

Vosotros, hermanos míos, vosotros, hermanos míos,
hoy me veréis por última vez;
¡Fue culpa del pastorcillo!
¡Todo fue por la trompa de los Alpes,
¡A ella culpo, a ella culpo!
