Kleines Lied [Kinderlied] [English translation]

Fear does not know friends

Yet we all know her well

She's rather making fiends

Loves courage most to quell

No one likes to meet her

Yet she likes every one

And knows every man's metre

Be it hither, be it yon

[Chorus:]

I'll be your little song

I'll strengthen you in need

No matter what's to come

I'll be at your heed

Once I am in your meatus

I'll never ever leave

I made a vow to shield us

You and your family

Your fear is likely mine

She lives off you and me

In dark and lonely times

She nibs at you and me

We could form a bond though

Together, me and you

To fathom our sorrow

I won't leave you in the blue

[Chorus]

Now you shall be my home space

For you make me feel safe

Your heart shall be my gateways

Your listening make me brave

The two of us together

Will chase out every fear

For in the darkest nethers

I know we will draw near

[Chorus]
