Everybody sings about their own despair
about my own I'm not allowed
bad dreams steal the nights
the nights are the worst for me.
I bundle up my life
and all the love into a hug
I'm going and leaving everything behind
Red, white blue lilac
in my garden blooms unpicked
it will never fade
it's my hearts flag
Where I'm born a river flows
next to it my youth remained
and it calls me with a whisper
my right shore,
but the sorrow is stronger than everything
because me brothers by blood
are ashamed of their own, and don't see anything
Red, white blue lilac
in my garden blooms unpicked
it will never fade
it's my hearts flag
Red, white blue lilac
in my garden blooms unpicked
it will never fade
it's my hearts flag
As the suns brow reveals dawn
morning reminds me of you
the three colors of my delight
my tears I cannot hide
