O du lieber Augustin is a traditional Viennese folk song that dates back to around 1800. It is often associated with the figure of Marx Augustin, a balladeer and bagpiper from Vienna. According to legend, during the Great Plague of Vienna in 1679, Augustin, after becoming intoxicated, fell into a pit filled with plague victims and was mistakenly presumed dead. Remarkably, he survived the ordeal without contracting the disease, becoming a symbol of hope and resilience for the Viennese people.
Lyrics:
Ach, du lieber Augustin, Augustin, Augustin!
Ach, du lieber Augustin, alles ist hin!
Geld ist weg, Mädl ist weg, alles weg, alles weg!
Ach, du lieber Augustin, alles ist hin!
CHORUS:
Rock ist weg, Stock ist weg, Augustin liegt im Dreck.
Ach, du lieber Augustin, alles ist hin!
CHORUS:
Und selbst das reiche Wien, hin ist’s wie Augustin!
Weint mit mir im gleichen Sinn, alles ist hin!
CHORUS:
Jeder Tag war ein Fest, jetzt haben wir die Pest!
Nur ein großes Leichenfest, das ist der Rest.
CHORUS:
Augustin, Augustin, leg’ nur ins Grab dich hin!
Ach, du lieber Augustin, alles ist hin!”
CHORUS:
English Translation:
O, my dear friend Augustin, Augustin, Augustin!
O, my dear friend Augustin, I just can’t win!
Money’s gone, girlfriend’s gone, I just can’t win, Augustin!
O, my dear friend Augustin, I just can’t win!
Coat is gone, staff is gone, Augustin’s on his bum.
O, my dear friend Augustin, I just can’t win!
Even that rich town Wien, broke is like Augustin!
Shed tears with thoughts akin, I just can’t win!
Every day was a fest, now we just have the pest!
Now all the corpses rest, that is the rest.
Augustin, Augustin, lay down in your coffin!
O, my dear friend Augustin, I just can’t win!”
