    Default Swiss German to English Francine Jordi - Trane

    Hi to everyone. I'm new to the forum. I do not speak Swiss German. This song sounds so beautiful. I have have been unable to find an English translation. If anyone can help I would be very grateful.


    Francine Jordi - Trane

    I ha ne Träne i mine Ouge
    U drin schpieglet sich dis Gsicht
    Isch’s e Troum wo seit „für immer“
    Wo cha gä u nie wird nä
    Du hesch e Träne i dini Ouge
    Ha gmeint Giele gränne nid
    Es isch z Gfüehu wo o mau weh macht
    U me truurig isch Tag u Nacht

    Säg mir Herrgot – bruchsch e Brüue
    Bruchsch es Hörgrät
    Merksch Du nid mir rede nüm
    Säg mir Herrgott – isch’s di Wiue
    Isch‘s mi Troum – sis jüngschte Gricht

    Säg mir bitte – was isch grächt u schlächt
    Säg mir bitte – han i äch Rächt und was isch – d Ewigkeit
    I han ne Träne i mine Ouge
    S isch aus so schtiu u i bl ellei
    Dr Mond schiint häu u a mir verbii
    U i schlaafe hüt Nacht nid i
    Du hesch e Träne i dini Ouge
    Si seit Dir – sisch aus nüm so
    Wies mau gsii isch – u was gsii isch
    Sisch wies söu – u so geits o

    Säg mir Herrgott – bruchsch e Brüue
    Herrgott no mau – bruchsch es Hörgrät
    Ghörsch mi nid
    Säg mir Herrgott – isch’s di Wiue
    Ghörsch Du nid – was i z säge ha
    Merksch Du nid – was i gärn hätt gha

    Two words need to be cleared my friends! I marked them with red!

    I ha ne Träne i mine Ouge
    U drin schpieglet sich dis Gsicht
    Isch’s e Troum wo seit „für immer“
    Wo cha gä u nie wird nä
    Du hesch e Träne i dini Ouge
    Ha gmeint Giele gränne nid
    Es isch z Gfüehu wo o mau weh macht
    U me truurig isch Tag u Nacht

    I have a tear in my eye
    And inside it your face reflects
    Is this a dream that says "forever"
    That comes and never goes again
    You have a tear in your eye
    You said boys don't cry
    It's the feeling that hurts me
    And makes me sad day and night



    Säg mir Herrgot – bruchsch e Brüue
    Bruchsch es Hörgrät
    Merksch Du nid mir rede nüm
    Säg mir Herrgott – isch’s di Wiue
    Isch‘s mi Troum – sis jüngschte Gricht

    Tell me God - Do you need glasses
    Do you need a deaf-aid
    Don't you realize we don't talk anymore
    Tell me God - Is it this your will
    Is it my dream - is the Jugment Day?


    Säg mir bitte – was isch grächt u schlächt
    Säg mir bitte – han i äch Rächt und was isch – d Ewigkeit
    I han ne Träne i mine Ouge
    S isch aus so schtiu u i bl ellei
    Dr Mond schiint häu u a mir verbii
    U i schlaafe hüt Nacht nid i
    Du hesch e Träne i dini Ouge
    Si seit Dir – sisch aus nüm so
    Wies mau gsii isch – u was gsii isch
    Sisch wies söu – u so geits o

    Tell me please - Is it fair or bad
    Tell me please - Am I right as well and what means eternity
    I have a tear in my eye
    It's over and so quiet, and I am all alone
    The moon shines today and does not light the world for me/but not for me
    And I do not fall asleep at night
    You have a tear in your eye
    It tells you - It's over
    How it was once - and what was once
    It is like it should be - and that's how it works



    Säg mir Herrgott – bruchsch e Brüue
    Herrgott no mau – bruchsch es Hörgrät
    Ghörsch mi nid
    Säg mir Herrgott – isch’s di Wiue
    Ghörsch Du nid – was i z säge ha
    Merksch Du nid – was i gärn hätt gha

    Don't you hear - what I said
    Don't you realize - what I'd like to have
