In celebration of the today's #internationalappalachiandulcimerday please find a traditional German folk song "Im Märzen der Bauer" played on my "bonsai" mountain dulcimer "Dulci-Lin" and on its big brother "MaxDAD".
Here are the lyrics in German and English translation:
Im Märzen der Bauer die Rösslein anspannt.
Er setzt seine Felder und Wiesen instand.
Er pflüget den Boden, er egget und sät
und rührt seine Hände frühmorgens und spät.
Die Bäuerin, die Mägde sie dürfen nicht ruh´n.
Sie haben im Haus und im Garten zu tun.
Sie graben und rechen und singen ein Lied
und freu´n sich, wenn alles schön grünet und blüht.
So geht unter Arbeit das Frühjahr vorbei.
Dann erntet der Bauer das duftende Heu.
Er mäht das Getreide, dann drischt er es aus.
Im Winter da gibt es manch herrlichen Schmaus.
English translation:
In March the farmer harnesses his horses.
In order he puts his fields and his meadows.
He plows the ground, he harrows and sows
And moves his hands from dawn till late.
The farmer's wife, the maids, they cannot rest.
Have things to do around the house and the garden.
They dig and they rake and sing a song
Rejoicing when everywhere it's greening and blooming.
So with work the spring is over.
The farmer then harvests the fragrant hay.
He mows the grain, he threshes it then.
In the winter, there are many a happy feast.

I love this, Ariane.
Thank you very much, dear Robin (and your dear guitar man ) and Homer - I am very happy that you like it.
Beautiful!
Ariane, the guitar man and I enjoyed this so much! He kept commenting on how good you are and I agreed! Thank you for the posting in celebration of International Appalachian Dulcimer Day, friend-- you represent Germany beautifully.
Thank you very much, Gordon, Ken and John - I am happy that you like it
Thanks, Ariane. I typed in "Im Marzen der Bauer" on the internet and got the translation and lyrics: "The Farmer in March". Thanks for bringing this to life with your music. John
Very nice, Ariane. That's a tune I remember from my childhood. Thanks for sharing it.
