Gossenpoet [English translation]

[Verse 1]

I have lost myself so many times now

In glass bottoms

and glory of the Muses.

I've renounced from the brandy of the devil

Almost every morning after drinking the night.

[Verse 2]

I've searched for long

but have never found myself

In no theater

And in no maiden's chest.

I've quickly disappeared from thousands of beds

Chased by love and pulled back by the lust.

[Refrain]

I am a minstrel, a poet of the streets.

Now I am here, and soon I'm gone away .

The wind of journey drifts into my nose, and

I say farewell to every one of my fears.

[Verse 3]

Smart and grown up,

That's what I never will be.

Lured by temptation every day and every night.

You give me broken desires

which you can't resist.

And who knows it already

just wants to come again.

[Verse 4]

I traveled far

Came around many times

Lots of long streets which I love to call my home.

And the end of every path will come once

So I don't stay any longer,

rather take a quick breakaway.

[Refrain]

I am a minstrel, a poet of the streets.

Now I am here, and soon I'm gone away .

The wind of journey drifts into my nose, and

I say farewell to every one of my fears.

Lala lalala La-la-la-la-la

Lalalalala Lalalalala

The wind of journey drifts into my nose, and

I say farewell to every one of my fears.

[Verse 5]

I am a dreamer,

A composer of the ditch

I'm here today

and tomorrow gone again.

Adventure is my road for every farce

For every tone, every ditty, every word.

[Refrain]

I am a minstrel, a poet of the streets.

Now I am here, and soon I'm gone away .

The wind of journey drifts into my nose, and

I say farewell to every one of my fears.

Lala lalala La-la-la-la-la

Lalalalala Lalalalala

The wind of journey drifts into my nose, and

I say farewell to every one of my fears

I say farewell to every one of my fears

I say farewell to every one of my fears
