I fell in love
I fell in love
Today I fell in love with nature,
I see the dawn with other eyes,
And I descry the flying birds in the sky
For the first time in many years.
Today I fell in love with the mystery
Of heavy rain with thunder and bright lightning,
I fell in love with the cold crystal stream,
Replacing my sorrow with beauty.
Today I fell in love with the moonlight,
Which fills the night with the inmost tenderness
And fills my young blood with the pleasure
Of living leisurely in the world.
Today I fell in love with a panpipe,
Whose melody is so mellifluous,
And the lovely musical brook
Fills my soul with a new joy.
Everything becomes bright and ringing,
My heart beats tremulously in my chest.
I fell in love with the world without hesitation,
And you, my dear, love me too.
A cry from my heart
I walk on the slippery road through rain and fog.
My bare feet get injured on the asphalt.
Our stormy love affair is finished.
And now I can’t see a fairy tale sunset again.
I don’t want to sober up, I don’t want to laugh.
My world is crushed, leaving dust in my soul.
I can’t be with you again, I can’t be with you!
And every minute passes burning me in silence.
I try to walk forward with my ruined heart,
A passerby, give me a poison, I’ll drink it!
I turn myself into ash, into gray ash.
I dissolve myself in the cloud of our lost love.
