Original German vs. English translation

Hello, I have sung this work in German. AFAIK the original text is German, and I must say it is Superior to the English translation. I am a Dutch (technical) translator, with an about equal command of both English and German. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by LtB (talkcontribs) on 10:43, 26 November 2007.

Hi there. I'm sure you're right and I will switch round the texts/translations on the page so that the (original) German text is presented as such. It will also be necessary to move the page. Is the German title "Hör' mein Bittern"? If you have a source and the software, consider adding an edition with the German text. As CPDL is sorely lacking in one, it would be great to have one contributed. Regards --Bobnotts talk 03:55, 26 November 2007 (PST)
