8 O Zillertal

steins08-1

Whew. Should have used the tripod.

 

"O'Zillertal Du bist mei' freud"

 

All right, this didn't take too long. Except that I still don't have the whole answer.

The embossed words are the title of a folksong.

And, given the zither, this one obviously has to go to Paul.

   

Zillertal

du bist mei Freud

holdietirioho!

Da hab'n die Madlen sakrisch Schneid

holdietirioho!

Da gibt's Gamserl zum derjagen

da gibt's Madlen zum derfragen.

Zillertal

du bist mei Freud

holdietirioho!

 

No translation service can make heads or tails of that. However, http://feeds.feedburner.com/HeinoUndJerryImUberSpace gives: "Zillertal, you are my joy. Your men are most brave; you have chamois to hunt and nice girls to go with."

wikipedia:

The Zillertal is the biggest valley branching off the Inn valley in Tyrol, Austria drained by the river Ziller. It is surrounded by the strongly glaciated Zillertal Alps to the south and east, the lower grass peaks of the Kitzbühel Alps to the east and Tux Alps to the west. The largest settlement is Mayrhofen...

The Zillertal is particularly renowned for its musical tradition. For instance, several families of travelling singers and organ builders from the valley have been credited with spreading the Christmas carol "Silent Night" across the world during the 19th and early 20th centuries. More recently, the Schürzenjäger band have had tremendous success in German-speaking countries with their crossover mix of Volksmusik and pop.
