Kolorowe jarmarki [English translation]

When I look behind me

To the years that passed

When I think of what I lost

Or fate took from me

What I lost on my own

Or against my wishes

Counting this and counting that

I will always tell you, that what I miss the most are...

Colourful markets, shiny watches,

Feathered roosters, balloons on sticks,

Wooden butterflies, rocking horses,

Cotton candy and gingerbread houses.

So many things now behind me

Faded fall is now coming

By now so much passed by

By now so much to miss

We become small things

Together in our remembering

Maybe instead of a heart I carry

An elaborate gingerbread, because what I miss the most are...

Colourful markets, shiny watches,

Feathered roosters, balloons on sticks,

Wooden butterflies, rocking horses,

Cotton candy and gingerbread houses.
