Our world
To always ask – where to, where to?
Where is the truth, the salt of the Earth?
To always ask – how to lose,
All the sadness, tears and pain
To always catch thoughts, the sudden and bright ones,
To look for them, where the light is white,
In your eyes are two sparks,
They herald, mark the goal
In your eyes are two sparks,
They herald, mark the goal
Our world, our world,
I want to conspire with you,
With your brilliance, your strength,
What can you give me – please say!
Our world, please give us,
Give us peace already
Give us calm – take our loss,
Squash it, erase it
Look for roads, where the clear sound
Amongst evil fires, which wake up fears,
Don't guide us, stop us
Please stop our chase...
Our world –
Give us many bright days!
Our world –
Give us anticipation on a bright day!
Our world –
Let us put out the evil fire!
Our world –
Give us joy, we search for so!
Our world –
Give us flame, steel and sound!
Our world –
Let us open all the heavy gates!
Our world –
Let us win against every fear!
Our world –
Give us the joy of brilliant change!
Our world –
Give us the shade of tall grass!
Our world –
Let us get lost in the rustle of the trees!
Our world –
Give us a black pond of silence!
Our world –
Give us the strength of a scream, a song, a crowd!
Our world –
Give us many bright days!
Our world –
Give us anticipation on a bright day!
Our world –
Let us put out the evil fire!
Our world...
Our world, our world,
I want to conspire with you,
With your brilliance, your strength,
What can you give me – please say!
