Die Gedanken sind frei
The Thoughs are FREE
| 2007_08_21 Die Gedanken sind frei |
Text und
Melodie in "Lieder der BrienzerMädchen", in Bern zwischen 1810 und 1820 gedruckt; ähnlich in Hoffmann-Richters "Schlesischen Volksliedern", Leipzig 1842 Text auf süddeutschen Flugblättern aus der Zeit zwischen 1780 und 1800 |
1. Die Gedanken sind frei, wer kann sie erraten, sie fliegen vorbei wie nächtliche Schatten. Kein Mensch kann sie wissen, kein Jäger erschießen, es bleibet dabei. Die Gedanken sind frei! |
2. Ich denke, was
ich will und was mich beglücket, doch alles in der Still, und wie es sich schicket. Mein Wunsch und Begehren kann niemand verwehren. Es bleibet dabei: die Gedanken sind frei! |
3. Sperrt man mich gleich ein in finsteren Kerker, so sind es doch nur vergebliche Werke; denn meine Gedanken zerreißen die Schranken und Mauern entzwei: die Gedanken sind frei! |
4. Drum will ich auf immer den Sorgen entsagen und will mich auch nimmer mit Grillen mehr plagen. Man kann ja im Herzen stets lachen und scherzen und denken dabei: die Gedanken sind frei! |

Immanuel's photo-experience of "Brazil" - parallel
to and still different from mine

The bus of the El-Al crew takes us - during 45 minutes
- to our hotel, where Immanuel and the other crew-members use to lodge.
Mika takes the camera, and after the disappointment, that a certain "water-fall"
was nothing but a sewage, which ran into the river,
she tried to catch "clean water".
 |
After not much sleep, and while in Israel it was already 4-5 PM, 6 hours later than in Sao Paulo, we explored the close surrounding of the "Tivoli"-Hote. I was less impressed by the gigantic "Bandierante" stature than by the enormous branches which enwrapped "him". 
|
 This was the first time we visited a restaurant, and at some point I said: "Now it's 9 AM here , which means it's 3 PM in Israel!" In that moment I was struck by a vertigo ~~ so horrid, that I felt I would die. I quickly leaned my elbows on the table and my head into my hands. I thought: "I told Efrat that I promised Body not to die! It will discourage her! But if I'm meant to die, why now! why not at the end of my family's holiday!" Efrat said: "If this is a kind of show, then know that you worry us!" It took some more seconds till I could whisper: "Wait a bit!" Then I began to recover, I went outside and recovered fully.... |
 |
The next day - our first full day - we drove to a
village of artists and artifacts.
I, too, was moved by the music of an Indian (illegal) band from Columbia.

| Mika's sad face reveals, that she feels hurt by something, probably by a quarrel with her mother

I told the story
about the chapel,
I also told, that it was Good Friday, |
 |
The next day we spent at the beach, as I told. The great fun was "balanced" by the hardship of jamned traffic-roads...
 |
 |
 |
I
was delighted to drink directly out of a coconut, one of the few things I appreciated, while in South-India for 3 months, in 1998....

exhibiting the exotic plants which I picked during a lonely hike on the island across the beach.
