Dein Stern [English translation]

Like a flower you saw yourself

Once blossomed, beaming with happiness

Everything seems to wither all of the sudden

Your heart resmbles a lake of tears

No place to stay

The mirror shows the emptiness

Your woman has left you

[chorous]

Yet in the evening sky is a star

A star that shines only for you

The light that lightens the darkness for you

And a tear drops onto her grave

You pack your bags

You leave your home and the day

Black like a shadow, your shape

Since darkness surrounded you

The way through life

Leads you over rough and smooth

Arrived at heavy gates

The key doesn't fit the lock

The apple tree long since doesn't carry a leave

The maggots ate away at the trunk

Your friend doesn't hang at the pole anymore

It is the time of ravens

The cold radiates from their eyes

The blood rolls off their plumage

The beak resembles the scythe -

of the Grim Reaper

Seconds stretch to hours

To the ground you drop swiftly

You behold the light of eternal life

And you lie down on her grave

Lie down on her grave

Lie down on her grave

The chains live on

Survive quite some time

But come next rain

Rust is taking hold

Thus the thoughts elude

And the memory dissolves

Only the ravens are waiting

For the next to lie beside you
