Mein Engel [English translation]

When the moonlight softly breaks, silvery-gray, onto the dark clouds,

It looks beautiful, this sea, but the appearance is deceptive, you are too heavy

They can no longer bear you

Can no longer bear you

You were an angel, you are an angel

You simply change fronts

Heaven drives you into a corner

Now you are here with me

When the silver breeze of the moon bathes the firmament in melancholy

You lie down here in my arms

You whisper my name trembling

They couldn't bear you any longer

Couldn't bear you

For you have lied to yourself

Flown away from yourself

Since I was thrown into life

You were always there for me

You stood silently in my shadow

You waited, felt

That I can't cope without you

You banished yourself

And used my thanks

for your protection as the fall of man
