Bernstein:Paradies [English translation]

The last card in my hand

I bet everything on it

My heavy heart

absorbs the cold rain

layer for layer

We ignored the signs

Constructed our dreams

Painted them; adorned them with gold

And watched, as the rain smudged the writing

We built ourselves a paradise

A paradise for us alone

We created a monument

It was to be our memorial

Stone by stone

A kingdom

Wasn't enough for the two of us

The paradise

When it vanished

The dream that bound us vanished too

I walk around

At the edge of time

And see a piece of lost world

But not a thought

Takes me away

From this empty scene of devastation

We ignored the signs

Constructed our dreams

Staged them like a drama

And chose the path that leads into the abyss

We built ourselves a paradise

A paradise for us alone

We created a monument

It was to be our memorial

Stone by stone

A kingdom

Wasn't enough for the two of us

The paradise

When it vanished

The dream that bound us vanished too

What have we done?

Wasted land

We lost ourselves among all the lies

I see, I fly

You fly away

And are beating your burning

Wings like crazy

We built ourselves a paradise

A paradise for us alone

We created a monument

It was to be our memorial

Stone by stone

A kingdom

Wasn't enough for the two of us

The paradise

When it vanished

The dream that bound us vanished too
