I have friends to have someone to follow,
Even if love would suddenly be (far) there.
When I feel worse than I probably must feel,
This is a fortune – that I have friends.
Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?
Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?
Oh, this is not me, wouldn't he stand near me?
I have friends to chit-chat with him,
To have him visiting me even if he doesn't have time.
To learn more than I know1,
To live through everything easier.
Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?
Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?
Oh, this is not me, wouldn't he stand near me?
A person alone is nothing.
A person alone is nothing.
So they should have someone to like.

There is a friend, you are never alone.

1. Literally: "So he knows more than that bit that I know."
