ODE 2 JOY

Baritone
Oh, Freunde, nicht diese Töne!
Sondern lasst uns
Angenehmere anstimmen
Und freudenvollere.Baritone & Chorus
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum.
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.Quartet & Chorus
Wem der grosse Wurf gelungen
Eines freundes Freund zu sein,
wer ein holdes Weib errungen,
mische seinen Jubel ein!
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
Und wer’s nie gekonnt, der stehle weinend sich aus diesem Bund!
Freude trinken alle Wesen
an den Brusten der Natur,
alle Guten, alle Bösen
folgen ihre Rosenspur.
Küße gab sie uns und Reben,
einen Freund, geprüft im Tod;
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben, und
der Cherub steht vor Gott!Tenor & Chorus
Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen
durch des Himmels prächt’gen Plan laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,
freudig wie ein Held zum Siegen.

Chorus
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum.
Diene Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.
Seid umschlugen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, über’m Sternenzelt
muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.
Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?
Such’ ihn über’m Sternenzelt!
Über Sternen muß er wohnen.

Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum.

Seid umschlugen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!

Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?
Such’ ihn über’m Sternenzelt!
Brüder! Brüder!
Über’m Sternenzelt
muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.

Quartet & Chorus
Freude, Tochter aus Elysium,
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

Seid umschlugen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, über’m Sternenzelt
muß ein lieber Vater wohnen.

Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium!

 

 

 

 

Baritone
Oh Friends, not these sounds!
But let us strike up sweet tones
full of joy!Baritone & Chorus
From the beautiful Divine Sparks
comes Joy, the Daughter of Heaven.
Souls ablaze, in a heavenly state
we enter your Holy Place.
Your enchantment reunites
all that Habit has bitterly sundered.
All people will become Brothers
wherever your gentle wings spread.Quartet & Chorus
Whoever has made the great leap
to become a Holy Brother,
whoever has been rewarded with a gracious Spouse,
alloy your Joy with ours!
Yes, all of you who can call one other soul on this earth “yourself”!
And those who were unable to do this,
should steal away in mourning from this union!
All beings drink joy from Nature’s breast,
all the good ones, all the bad ones
follow their own rosy path.
She gave us kisses and vines,
a friend, proven beyond death;
Lust for Life was given to the Worm,
but the Cherub stands before God!

Tenor & Chorus
Joyfully, like His stars fly
through Heaven’s splendid design,
Brothers, walk your path with Joy
like a Hero on his way to victory.

Chorus

All people will become Brothers
wherever yr gentle wings are spread.
Be embraced, you Legions!
This Kiss is for Every One!
Brothers, above the starry canopy
there must dwell a loving Father.
Do you prostrate yourselves, you Legions?
O World, do you feel the presence of your Creator?
Seek Him beyond the canopy of stars!
He must dwell beyond the stars.
