Elegie [English translation]

[Verse 1]

I forgot a long time ago what you look like

But perhaps your eyes were blue

Your hair, bright as the forest in the autumn

Your hands, small and soft

[Verse 2]

I forgot a long time ago what you sound like

But perhaps your voice was quiet

I still sometimes hear a dream-like violin

Murmuring through the past

[Chorus]

The rain is crying upon the window

But the moon is laughing beyond the clouds

It's so good, man, that you've come to life

To live just a little among the mortals

[Verse 3]

I don't even care anymore, I don't care

If you're dead, if you still live

Just a mad envy unnerves me

You grow from snow and silk

[Chorus]

The rain is crying upon the window

But the moon is laughing beyond the clouds

It's so good, man, that you've come to life

To live just a little among the mortals
