Denn ich bin der Meister [English translation]

During the day power for the gear

And at night I will give you my word

Questions are thieves like ravens

They fly away without prey

Come on and repeat after me, learn how to use them

and commit them fiercely to your memory

Twelve of your are one dozen

But only one can be the master

Mine is the word and the word is knowledge

Knowledge is power and power is rights that were wrested away

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Nothing but my minion

Now come hither you mill's knaves

Because midnight is feeding time

Come, pick the word in little morsels

And lstudy while in black plumage

You crawl after me, you might as well run

But you will never catch me

Because knowledge can burn like fire

And too much of it can be deadly.

Mine is the word and the word is knowledge

Knowledge is power and power is rights that were wrested away

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Nothing but my minion

With my words I can create bonds stronger than metal

- Because you are the master

There are no places to hide, I am everywhere

-Because you are the master

You are not quite aware of the price you'll be paying

- Because you are the master

Only I know the truth of how the mill does the grinding

-Because you are the master

And you will never ever find a way out

-Because you are the master

It doesn't matter how much you're slaving away, always one step ahead

-Because you are the master

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Because I am your master

Because I am your master

Yes, I am your master

And you are nothing

Nothing but my minion
