Ebbe & Flut [English translation]

Quit doubting yourself

What has been reached is good

There is no yielding

There is nothing you must pay for

Quit doubting yourself

Listen to the possibilities

The breath of the tide

In time with the physicalities

From the low tide comes the high 1

Everything remains in memory

Your head, your flesh, your blood

Everything stays with you

Quit doubting yourself

Splitting your hair

There is nothing to confess

There is nothing to make easier

Quit doubting yourself

Managing your thoughts

Holding back your soul

In your clenched fist

One thing turns into another

The other goes to the mind

The mind is always wandering

Up close to you

1. Ebb and Flow in English (Ebbe und Flut) means the rhythmical pattern of things becoming better and worse, but literally means something along the lines of low and high tides.
