The Ghost Of New Year's Eve - Welten Brand
In the old days
One believed in Triesenberg
When one went to church
At midnight on new year's eve
One could see all the deceased from the previous year
And then someone read their names
And that person then was the next one to die
A curious man went at midnight
Of new year's eve into the church
And hid up in the choir loft
Fifteen ghosts entered the church
In succession and gathered around the pulpit
A living read their names but at the end
He said you come too you who has hidden up
In the organ
Pale as death the man snuck
To the ghosts and suddenly
Everything disappeared when his wife
Wanted to wake him on
New year's morning he laid dead in bed
He laid dead in bed
Fifteen ghosts entered the church
In succession and gathered around the pulpit
A living read their names but at the end
He said you come too you who has hidden up
In the organ
