Das Schweigen der Lämmer [English translation]

Nobody knew her voice

Because she never spoke

But inside she was burning.

This silence was the worst thing

Because she never slept.

For years she thought

“Is it really Gods Will, that I bleed

When the Shepard was with me?

And clearly God is silent* as he watches

When the Shepard whispers”

Can you touch me?

Can you free me?

Can you take me away?

It’s getting dark, I’m losing myself in you.

God is great

God will forgive you

God is great

Come, I’ll wash you

(I’ll wash you)

Maria was also in the room

When he groaned

But she just stared and said nothing

And she prayed like always

But she knew

That Heaven is deaf.

Can you touch me?

Can you free me?

Can you take me away?

It’s getting dark, I’m losing myself in you.

God is great

God will save you

God is great

Come, I’ll wash you

(I’ll wash you)

God is great

God will save you

God is great

Come I’ll wash you

(I’ll wash you)

Lay with me

God is good to you

Lay with me

God is good to you

God is good to you
