Verlorne Kinder [English translation]

It's evening in the apartment block

like a angry animal

where they are at home

The radio call for them

but they stay here

where they are at home

They join each other

on the playground bench

where they are at home

The recorder makes

the twilight for them long

Where they are at home

Where they are at home

They would like to flee to the warmer countries

the lost children in the streets of Berlin

The apartment block spits them

in to the cold wind

where they are at home

Only sometimes

a frozen sees

where they are at home

Where windows lure

with yellow lights

where they are at home

But they don't know

what that room warmth is

where they are at home

where they are at home

They would like to flee to the warmer countries

the lost children in the streets of Berlin

To the old limes which only bloom in the distance

which they can't find in the streets of Berlin anymore
