This is one of three settings by Franz Schubert
of words from Goethe's "Wilhelm Meister"
The original words are
An die Türen will ich schleichen,
Still und sittsam will ich steh'n;
Fromme Hand wird Nahrung reichen,
Und ich werde weitergehn.
Jeder wird sich glücklich scheinen,
Wenn mein Bild vor ihm erscheint;
Eine Träne wird er weinen,
Und ich weiß nicht, was er weint.
My singing translation for the vocal version is:
I will creep up to the doors and
stand there quiet and polite
goodly hands will give me food and
grateful I will leave their sight
Every person will seem happy
When they see me at their door
They will shed a tear which I
will never know the reason for
The complete set comprises:
Wer sich der Einsamkeit ergibt
Wer nie sein Brot mit Tränen ass
An die Türen
