Man shall not live by bread alone
Common values require maintenance1
The soul grows there, where's warmth
Even ice breaks where friendship is
Some step onto the ice
Others don't want to, because they know
Warmth does ice no good
And they avoid falling into the cold flood
On thin ice, where there is no warmth
On thin ice, where only the cold reigns
On thin ice, it must be friendship
Come, let's fall through the thin ice together2
I keep my promise to break the ice
Because I run away, it'll take revenge
Some step onto the ice
Others don't want to, because they know
Warmth does ice no good
And they avoid falling into the cold torrent
On thin ice, where there is no warmth
On thin ice, where only the cold reigns
On thin ice, it must be friendship
Let's fall through the thin ice together
The ice age will pass by
And friends will stand together
On thin ice, where there is no warmth
On thin ice, where only the cold reigns
On thin ice, it must be friendship
Let's fall through the thin ice together
Where there is no warmth
Where only the cold reigns
It must be friendship
Let's fall through together
1. ?2. Literally "on thin ice, come, let's fall through together"
