about
It's just my trusty H2 recorder, my guitar and I, and yes, it is quiet, and there is a little mysterious (as in I have no idea where it comes from) buzzing in the first and last seconds. (It's probably there in between as well, but I am louder! :) ), and no, it's not perfect.
But it's for Zander/Zanda who left us last year, and maybe some of you would like to hear it.
(Perhapy I will bring you a better recording some day, but not today.)
lyrics
Ich sehe die Lichter des Smallships verschwinden,
es schlingert ein bisschen, und dann ist es fort.
Am Startplatz sind noch ein paar Schrauben zu finden,
und die Klebebandrolle liegt sicher noch dort.
Vielleicht führt dein Weg durchs Multiversum dich mal wieder hier vorbei?
Vielleicht landest du auf Old Earth einen Coup?
Vielleicht hast du noch nen Trick in petto oder besser drei?
Und falls dann g’rad ein Circle rundläuft, setz dich einfach für ein Lied dazu.
Der Club With A Nail In It liegt auf dem Weg
zu all den alten Wundern und neuen Abenteuern,
zur sagenhaften unterirdischen Bibliothek
und außerirdischen Sommer-Lagerfeuern.
Weltraum-Piratinnen, magische Bäume,
das Oonaverse und ein Konzert mit Gestalt,
niemals geplante, höchst erstaunliche Räume –
und Nyronds, die werden bekanntlich uralt.
Was, frag‘ ich mich, tun denn bloß diese Igel?
Und Dracul von Ryan erklärt die Welt sehr genau.
Bald find‘ ich Avevale wohl hinter dem Spiegel,
und der Himmel zeigt uns einmal mehr ein Stück Blau.
Ich sehe die Lichter des Smallships verschwinden,
es schlingert ein bisschen, wir bleiben zurück.
Die Companions können Abschied halt schwerer verwinden.
Bis dann, gute Reise, farewell und viel Glück!
Translation (thanks to DeepL, Valerie and Chris):
I see the lights of the Smallship disappear,
it rolls a little and then it's gone.
At the starting place there are still some screws to be found,
and the roll of tape is probably still there.
Maybe your way leads you through the Multiverse to here again?
Maybe you’ll run a scam on Old Earth?
Maybe you still have a trick up your sleeve, or better, three?
And if there’s a circle then, just sit down for a song.
The Club With A Nail In It lies along the way
to all the old wonders and new adventures,
to the fabulous underground library
and alien summer campfires.
Space pirates, magic trees,
the Oonaverse and a concert with Gestalt,
never planned, most amazing rooms -
and Nyronds, they're getting age-old.
What, I wonder, are these hedgehogs doing?
And Dracul von Ryan explains the world very precisely.
Soon I'll find Avevale behind the mirror,
and the sky shows us a patch of blue once more.
I see the lights of the Smallship disappear,
It rolls a little, we stay behind.
The Companions always find it harder to get over goodbye.
So long, smooth journey, farewell and good luck!
