Description

My star was so bright in early years,
what a shimmering beacon that was.
Big, pressing and illuminating far,
a point fixed in the wide heavens.
For every woman, and every fun,
without responsibilities, without worry.
Like summer leaves, full and strong,
how it is with the way of youth.
Now childish summers are long past,
and like fallen leaves, dreams are gone.
Like the ground ready for winter,
with wrinkled skin and stiff joints.
My star still shines, just colder,
always there, just older.

Meine stern hat so geleuchtet, im fruhere jahr,
was ein heller brenner das war.
Gross dringent, und strahlent breit.
Fur jeden weib, und jeden spass,
ohne kummer, ohne last.
Wie sommer blattchen, voll und stark,
wie es so ist in jungenliche art.
Jetzt, sind kinder sommers langst erleben,
und wie gefallener blattchen, traumer vergeben.
Wie ein boden, winter reif,
mit gefaltete haut, gelenke steif.
Mein stern es leuchtet noch,
immer da, nur noch alter.
