Träume [English translation]

Dreams... that arise at nighttime

and vanish by daytime

are mostly not true at all

Because they are born out of

the millions of

our illusions*

Dreams... are like distant clouds

that others follow

for as long as they live

Tell me... tell me where they float to

where they finally go to

only the wind knows

Like a miracle, the world is

Every tree and every field

Like a miracle, the world is

Dreams... that mean nothing to us

one should at times

look through different eyes

For they often lead our thoughts

down pathways

that we then go
