Glück [English translation]

I thought where there was glitter it had to be somewhere,

but it doesn't lie in glistening lustre

and it avoids gloss *

I searched in everything

I couldn't have,

but I see that what is blinding me

doesn't shine very long.

It's already there

it's already here

all this time it's been lying in front of me.

I pick it up

it's very light

and shines for all eternity.

I want it to stay there

but I don't hold it tight

will share it with you

because then it grows.

It's already there

it's already here

all this time it's been lying in front of me.

I pick it up

it's very light

and shines for all eternity.

I'm floating above the ground

I'm staying up here forever

I don't want anything more

I don't need anything more

I don't want to go back anymore.

It's already there

it's already here

all this time it's been lying in front of me.

I pick it up

it's very light

and shines for all eternity.

for all eternity

for all eternity
