Weise den Weg [English translation]

In the clearing of a forest once the wind came by

In the clearing of a forest, all alone, sat a child

As the wind swept along the meadows

Like it had done for thousands of years

As the wind came by the clearing

The girl said to him

Wind in the meadows, so show the way

Show your face, scattered in the leaves

Wind in the meadows, whereever it shall lead

In your hands shall lie my destiny

Wind in the meadows, so show the way

Further the wind swept with haste, because the distance called for him

Further the wind swept with haste, and the girl followed him

As the years passed by

The friendship with the child grew

And so they travelled together, the girl and the wind

Wind in the meadows, so show the way

Show your face, scattered in the leaves

Wind in the meadows, whereever it shall lead

In your hands shall lie my destiny

Wind in the meadows, so show the way

As the child had grown old

Could not follow up with the wind

As the child had grown old

She lies down to sleep

The wind softly took his friend, her soul, with him

When he sweeps today still across the meadows, you can hear her talk

Wind in the meadows, so show the way

Show your face, scattered in the leaves

Wind in the meadows, whereever it shall lead

In your hands shall lie my destiny

Wind in the meadows, so show the way
