This will be my last song this year...and it is a very special , very old Bavarian country song . This kind of songs which were sang and played traditional in the "pre-Christmas period", called the "Adventszeit" (time in Advent) and you could hear them in all Alpine Villages, the whole family comming together , sitting in their cottages and celebrating the Christmas festivity. ---
Text:
Staad, staad, heit is´Advent,
wia unsa Kerzerl sche brennt,
ham ma zum Denga grad gnua,
gemma vo´soi ba a Ruah.
Staad, staad....
ham ma zum Wünschn no Zeit,
´s Christkindl is´nimmer weit.
Staad, staad....
suach ma und find´n ma gar,
morgn´von am Engerl a Haar.
Well, to be short...it means : "Silent , silent...today is Advent, see how our candle burns...we have some time to think about....and we will keep calm.....
we have some time to wish ....the "Christ Child" ("Santa Claus" in German "Angel" ) is not far.........we search and will even find...a hair from an Angel ...tomorrow....
