Ich schaff' das schon [English translation]

As Meike was nearly one year old, there she already could stay

She practiced tireless, to walk along the wall

Three steps she could do easily and nearly the fourth one

But she better decided to land on her belly

She looked around and laughed

And maybe thought the first time

„I can do that, I can do that

I can do that alone

I maybe come, I maybe come

I maybe come back on my feets

I maybe need, I maybe need

I maybe need a lot of strength for it

But I after all

Managed other things"

As Meike was in school there, she felt really good

But when she was staying at the parallel bars in sports she nearly lost her bravery

Especially, when the whole class saw how she struggled with herself

She would have loved to get away and much to it wasn't left

But she stood there and thought

"I have to get through that, that would be ridiculous!"

„I can do that, I can do that

I can do that alone

I maybe come, I maybe come

I maybe come back on my feets

I maybe need, I maybe need

I maybe need a lot of strength for it

But I after all

Managed other things"

As Meike was seventeen was she totally in love

She believed that there just were pink clouds for them

But then, now to then, collapsed her dream world

She was really down and felt really small

But she stood up and thought

„I right now really woke up"

„I can do that, I can do that

I can do that alone

I maybe come, I maybe come

I maybe come back on my feets

I maybe need, I maybe need

I maybe need a lot of strength for it

But I, after all,

Managed other things"

The Time passed by fast, Meike also got a child today

The Apartment isn't so big, where the two of them live

And yet every nook here has its own face

Not every child got it so cozy and peaceful

And Meike is thinking in some nights

About that what she thought as a child

Na, na, na, na

„But I, after all, managed other things"
