Copying Beethoven(2006)set to Ludwig Van Beethoven Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125(1824)
Lyrics + English/German Translation:
Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen----------Gladly, heavenly bodies fly
Durch des Himmels prächt'gen Plan----------On their courses through the heavens,
Laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,----------Thus, brothers, you should run your race,
Freudig, wie ein Held zum siegen.--------Joyful, like a hero going to conquest.
Seid umschlungen, Millionen!---------You millions, be embraced.
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!---------This kiss is for all the world!
Brüder, über'm Sternenzelt----------Brothers, above the starry canopy
Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.-----------There must dwell a loving Father.
Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?----------Do you fall in worship, you millions?
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?----------World, do you know your creator?
Such' ihn über'm Sternenzelt!----------Seek him in the heavens
Über Sternen muß er wohnen.---------Above the stars must he dwell.
*The most unique feature of “The Ninth” was that Beethoven included chorus and vocal soloists in the final movement. He was the first major composer to do this featuring A Poem by Friedrich Von Schiller " Ode An Die Freude - Ode to Joy"(1875)*
