Oma Lise [English translation]

[Part 1]

I would have never thought that I would write this song

But I don't know how to reach you

Sometimes it feels like you're talking to me in my thoughts

And I would really like to answer but I can't

To speak to you once again, face to face

Because so much happened since you left

They say there is a beginning after every end

And we get to know that Anna-Maria is pregnant again

One day after your death we're back at the hospital again

I tell Aaliyah there are twins in Mom's belly

Djibrail - finally I have my son

And Laila - she has your eyes, your nose, your mouth

I'd forgiven Dad long ago

And that's why I took him to us to Berlin after you were gone

I think being a Granddad was good for him

God let him be happy before he took him

And I thought that I have finally found my peace too

But suddenly I was on every front page because of a song

Do you remember Shindy at breakfast, how quiet he was?

He is now something like a superstar

And Ali is a rapper as well

The label looks better without Kay

But there were problems at home, Anna-Maria took the kids

Moved away with them. That was the moment I thought it's over

A week later, January 2015

I got a message from her, that she was pregnant again

And in August my second son is born

Issa - when I look him in his face I see myself

I knew it was a sign

Anna-Maria came back and everything was balanced

Meanwhile, Grandma was gone too

You probably know, I guess you're up there together

Your sister helps us in every possible way, the kids love her

And no matter how hard they play, she's never fed up

You've become a Grandma again

On your first day of death, Sercan's first son Noah was born

And Ismail, he often visits the three

He even gave them a house of their own

By the way: our house is still not finished

The neighbours don't want us, the building authorities are getting on my nerves

The dogs had to leave, I left them at the animal shelter

But I now have an aquatic shop

Renate and Uwe tell me to say hello

They think I'm their messenger

Montry acts like a teenager

Aaliyah starts first grade soon

And I still write songs dissing strangers

You know it: I never liked the food at other places

But my wife is perfect as Mom and housewife

I hope you see I'm fine, Mom, don't be afraid

Your favourite woollen hat is still in the wardrobe

Aaliyah wants us to keep the green frog on the fridge

No one is allowed to touch it - it belongs to Grandma Lise
