One more "An Wasserflüssen Babylon," this time from the early German Baroque composer, Franz Tunder. (Plus, PLAYLIST to date.)
An Wasserflüssen Babylon
da saßen wir mit Schmerzen
als wir gedachten an Zion,
da weinten wir von Herzen.
Wir hingen auf mit schwerem Mut
die Harfen und die Orgeln gut
an ihre Bäum der Weiden,
die drinnen sind in ihrem Land;
da mußten wir viel Schmach und Schand
täglich von ihnen leiden.
By the waters of Babylon
There we sat in grief;
As we thought of Zion,
There we wept from the depths of our hearts.
We hung up, with heavy emotions,
Our organs and good harps
On the trees of their pastures,
That are within their lands;
There we must endure much shame and humiliation
At their hands daily.
