Himmelsstürmer [English translation]

The stuff is packed.

The turbines oiled.

The engine is running.

The pointer counts.

The seconds pass until the start

The nerves are tense

The view crystal clear

Up,

Where the stars are,

Where there is freedom

There is freedom yet

And happiness in the clouds waves!

This moment is made for heroes

I start the engine

Open the throttle and lift off.

In the sky - Himmelsstürmer!

Through the Clouds

Into the bright blue

Off to the Stars - Himmelsstürmer!

Give my love to the sun

And say hello to the moon.

The earth soars.

The pressure escapes.

Checked instruments

The sky is far.

Rocket ignition

Contact reached.

Immerse yourself in the tail of comet

In space

Even deeper, where the stars are,

where the boundaries are blurred

And happiness behind

The moon starts.

On days like these

Are heroes born.

We have every oath

Sworn to freedom.

In the sky - Himmelsstürmer ...!

This moment

Is made for us

Come start the engines

We step on the gas and take off.

In the sky - Himmelsstürmer!

Through the Clouds

Into the bright blue

Off to the Stars - Himmelsstürmer!

Give my love to the sun

And say hello to the moon

Go straight to the horizon

Very high up! ...

In the sky - Himmelsstürmer!

The stuff is packed

Turbines oiled

The engine runs

The views crystal clear.
