When I Die [German translation]

And when I die

and when I'm dead, dead and gone,

There'll be one child born and

a world to carry on, to carry on

I'm not scared of dying

and I don't really care

If it's peace you find in dying,

well, then let the time be near

If it's peace you find in dying,

when dying time is here,

Just bundle up my coffin cause

it's cold way down there,

I hear that's it's cold way down there,

yeah, crazy cold way down there

And when I die and when I'm gone,

There'll be one child born and

a world to carry on, to carry on

My troubles are many, they're as deep as a well

I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell

Swear there ain't no heaven and pray there ain't no hell,

But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell,

Only my dying will tell, yeah, only my dying will tell

And when I die and when I'm gone,

There'll be one child born and a world to carry on, to carry on

Give me my freedom for as long as I be

All I ask of living is to have no chains on me

All I ask of living is to have no chains on me,

And all I ask of dying is to go naturally, only want to go naturally

Don't want to go by the devil, don't want to go by the demon,

Don't want to go by Satan, don't want to die uneasy,

Just let me go naturally

And when I die and when I'm gone,

There'll be one child born, there'll be one child born

When I die, there'll be one child born

When I die, there'll be one child born

When I die, there'll be one child born

When I die, there'll be one child born
