Mit 17 hat man noch Träume [English translation]

At 17 one still has dreams

Because all the trees still grow

In the sky1 of love

At 17 one can still hope

Because all the paths are still open

In the sky of love

But with the years one will discover

That many of the dreams fade away

But when one is young, so delightfully young is

Who, yes, who thinks about that?

At 17 one still has dreams

Because all the trees still grow

In the sky of love

Young people do not ask what one may and can

Young people look at the world with their own eyes

And if this world is often far from reality

Who is he, that will not excuse them with a smile

At 17 one still has dreams

Because all the trees still grow

In the sky of love

But with the years one will discover

That many of the dreams fade away

But when one is young, so delightfully young is

Who, yes, who thinks about that?

At 17 one still has dreams

Because all the trees still grow

In the sky of love

In the sky of love

1. or heaven
