Sommermorgen [English translation]

Through the open window, the day is entering our bedroom

And morning light is already flooding it

I feel you next to me, you're still sleeping

And trying to hold onto your dream

How I love to snuggle you

as I think about you and me

How I love those bright summer mornings

How I love you

More clearly I now hear the sounds from outside

Voices, street noises, car doors

That quiet breathing space has passed

You stir as if you had felt it, too

And blink at me with a sleepy smile

I wait for this look every morning

How I love to feel you wake up next to me

How I love you

Later in the day, time passes so hurriedly

So come closer to me for a while longer

When shall I say - if I don't say it now -

That I'm happy with you

Surrounded by your warmth, your advice,

your tenderness; when shall I say

How good it is to live at your side

How I love you
