Nur Du [English translation]

Black crowds are rising,

Bringing forth a storm

The thunder breaks (the clouds) and hail is falling,

I'm looking around, searchingly

No shelter in sight, the way is so long

I can't understand it.

There's no time for me to escape,

Maybe I have to survive it.

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.

Thoughts are spinning (in my head), fighting a duel

There's not even one (thought) that I can grasp,

Everything's spinning much too fast

I'm caught, just like in a dream I won't wake from

A veil of darkness is shrouding the room,

Keeping me under guard, like a dragon.

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.

Why am I the only one against whom the sky conspired,

And why did it choose me, of all people, to be its major enemy?

You're the angel that I need (in order) to understand my mistakes

I chose the wrong way

Oh, help me understand...

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.

Only you

(Only you...)

Know the way out of darkness

You're my light

Only you

(Only you...)

Can show me the things I can't see

I can't make it alone.
