Dieser eine Wunsch [English translation]

Brother this is going to be my last letter

You know I only write it for you

And in every line you read how affected I am

Nothing is for eternity

And still I am asking why God

Took you away from my life so early

A thousand questions worrying me every day

Reprovals taking my sleep every night

I swear I can’t take it anymore

And I feel that you understand my feelings

Please dry my tears

I write from deep within and your photo stands right next to the bed

I light a candle every night

I’ve never been the kind of guy who spoke prayers every day

But it changes when you recognize how short life is

I swear to you I can still hear your laughter

Back then I often said that your grimaces are annoying me

D*mn I’m so f*cked up

I miss you, sliding my fingers accross your face on the photo

If God can only grant me this wish

To see you once more

Can you see my tears, d*mn we’re finished

How much would I like to take you in my arms again

I can’t take it how should I stand in front of your grave

If God can only grant me this wish

To see you once more

Can you see my tears the way I am just fighthing

ich schaff es nicht ich will dich nicht im sarg sehn

Your funeral, the worst day in my whole live

Candles were all around

And I felt so sorry for your mother

She was in tears, your father took her in his arms

And your little sister, she didn’t yet get it

But your big brother did, his face was pale

There have been so many people who I didn’t know

Your aunts, relatives and aquiantances came

Do you realize how much we are missing you, tell me, do you feel the grief

Can you see the way our boys are grieving

And believe me we’re not partying that much anymore

No wish for standing around in the evenings

No day passes on which we don’t think of you

I have lost my friend and no distant person

ich vermiss dich man ich hoff nur das du uns von oben sehen kannst

I wake up bathed in sweat

Yes, again this dream, both of us sitting on the couch

You looked at me contented aftewards we went outside

For a walk but everything was grey

One couldn’t see the sun because it was too dark

You have asked so many times, did our boys stand at the coffin

White flowers and the sky was colored cyan

Maybe I wasn’t far wary from paradise

Really, I wanted to say so much but I couldn’t

That’s why I wrote this song for you

(very unstructured grammar.. I guess: ) can you hear me

Could you hear me standing at the grave

Could you hear me through this glass wall

I swear I haven’t left youi

No you haven’t been alone

You looked like an angel, your face was free

Carefree, free from pain, we miss you so much

It’s becoming too much
