Werdegang [Zeitdokument] [English translation]

No one,

No one hears you.

No one,

No one believes in you.

Time passes by...

You go your own way unhesitatingly

Always on the look-out for a helping hand

You try to turn your own ideas and

Thoughts into deeds,

To create works worthy of you.

When they observe your works,

People start to take notice of you.

You are offered the hand up

That you were looking for for so long.

Optimism takes over.

Hopes are awakened.

Time passes by...

Results are slow to come, successes

Are rare.

Many of the helping hands you had,

Let you drop.

Bleakness and disillusionment

Take over.

Wasted time?

Time passes by...

Lately, lots of people have been offering you a hand.

Hands that fit well in your hands.

Hands create.

Results are achieved,

Trust and optimism are awakened.

Successes are credited to your name.

Contentment and satisfaction

Are attained.

Time passes by...

The hands grow more mature

The trust and optimism

Remain.

You go from victory to victory

The applause as reward for the hard struggle

Thanks are due to the faithful supporters...

Time passes by...

This is my cirriculum vitae

Just a small excerpt from my life

On the path to becoming, finally,

One who has found his place.

Many are searching for those helping

Hands, that become ever more familiar

And give support.

Whether musician, composer, or painter, every

One who follows their dream, lives through

Time in this way.

I thank all the faithful companions, who

Have again and again picked me back up

And through their loyalty, given me

The assurance that I was doing something right.

Sometimes the helping hand is an encouraging word,

A hearty

Embrace, or the applause that you

Give me.

For these I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
