Kinder [English translation]

Are so small hands, with fingers very little,

one may never beat them, because you will break the middle

Are so small feet, with toes, very slight,

one may never step on them, because they will not go right.

Are so small ears, and very clear,

one may never shout to them, because they will get deaf and cannot hear.

Are so small mouth, which say everything straight and loud ,

one may never prohibit this, otherwise nothing will come out.

Are so clear eyes, which see everthing and all,

one may never blindfold them, because they will fall.

Are so small souls, open and so free,

one may never torment them, because they will close the heart with a key.

Is such a small spine, you cannot see it clear,

one may never bow it, because you will break it and will make fear.

Straight and honest people, is a wonderful goal and aim,

people without spine, we have enough and they can only play a game.
