Story Behind the Song
I WROTE THIS SONG AS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR OUR VERY GOOD FRIEND FROM AUSTRIA, RENATE KLINGER! "NATI" IS THE SHORTENED VERSION OF HER NAME, AND "LEIN" IS AN ENDEARMENT.--WE ALWAYS HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH HER!---I WROTE IT IN THE AUSTRIAN DIALECT OF THE GERMAN LANGUAGE..WHICH I HAVE LEARNED FIRST-HAND THROUGH MY HUSBAND, WHO IS FROM AUSTRIA, AND FROM SEVERAL VISITS WE'VE MADE THERE....AND THE MANY GREAT TIMES WE HAD WITH MANY GOOD FRIENDS, AND FAMILY, WHO WERE "HAPPY" TO HELP ME WITH LEARNING THE TONGUE!--BY THE WAY, IT WASN'T TOO DIFFICULT, APPARENTLY PERHAPS, BECAUSE MY MATERNAL GRANDFATHER'S ANCESTORS HAVE BEEN TRACED BACK TO THE 1100'S IN TIROL, AUSTRIA!--ANCESTRAL MEMORY MAYBE?
