Alsof je vliegt [English translation]

She was so breakable, was so fragile

When you got to know her

Like a leaf of a rose, so soft

She was a bit shaky, and sometimes a bit angry

But you could handle it

That's what I thought

The time passed and it seems like that

It went better with her bit by bit

Slowly she found the power

Your love turned out to be the right colour

And then happened

What I didn't expect anymore

From the ground

You helped her build

Till she could do everything herself

Until she stood

Till she found her legs and wings

Finally found

Well, I hope she enjoys

All the beauty she sees now

And that the wind will carry her wings forever

Because you grant her luck

Despite your tears of sorrow

But I hope that she prepares herself for the fall

Because you know, my love

She seems much stronger than you now

But appearances are deceiving

She doesn't see it

Because if you fall, sometimes it is like you are flying

It feels like you are flying

He was so caring and charming

When you got to know him

Such a remedy for the pain

You held off, broken heart

But he was unstoppable

Too good to be true

From the start

A sea of flowers

He placed at your pedestal

But when he had you

Just as fast as he came

he went

Well, I hope he enjoys

All the beauty he sees now

And that he then finds his luck there

Because you don't want to weigh him down

With your tears of sorrow

But I hope that he prepares himself for the fall

Because you know, my love

He seems much higher than you now

But appearances are deceiving

He doesn't see it

Because if you fall, sometimes it is like you are flying

It feels like you are flying

So don't think, my love,

That you are the weakest

It's not that difficult to leave

Because when the storm rises

And everybody starts running

The strongest trees will keep standing

And a head in the clouds doesn't mean

That someone can fly

Again and again the shortest route

Makes you faster

But does it really make you wiser

I'm so proud of you

When I see how strong you are

And you are only becoming stronger because of it
