Talk:Erde, singe

A couple of quick questions

 * 1) If this hymn is a contrafactum of an earlier work, why not just say so (instead of "a paraphrase and expansion")?
 * 2) What is the source of the English translation, and how do we know that it is out of copyright?

I tried adding a lang template, please remove it if it isn't wanted. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:50, 4 January 2018 (UTC)


 * I translated, and it's not a contrafactum, taking just one little idea + the melody, and I also - if I had remembered the word - don't know how many of our readers know it.
 * I addded many more "lang". --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:14, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
 * That's what a contrafactum is – a new text set to the existing melody (in a "classical" context – in jazz it is just a contrafact). Ping me if you need other template help. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:15, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
