Open Je Ogen [English translation]

I am enlightened

She's standing next to me with her bag

As if something unfolds

Something that hasn't been there before

And then I think, no, I know

Even if it is still insignificant:

It's carved in stone

I need not be somewhere else.

She's watching the clouds for quite a while

And then she looks at me

As if she's seeing something new

As if something appears to her

And then she laughs, then she beams

Nobody here is free

I just can't understand

How she can just be herself

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

There's never something in the stars

That a man doesn't understand properly

As if every bit of explanation

Just renders it too difficult

But you feel it and you see it

And you know it's the truth

And you just stop understanding

That you've never lacked something

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

Nothing special

Quite simple

It happens all the time

Still a thunderbolt

Out of the blue

For it is happening to me today

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness

Open your eyes for me

Don't ignore your happiness
