Roter Mohn [English translation]

Na-na-na, na-na-mhh

It was Spring, and we were walking together

Through the fields with happy faces,

Deep in our hearts, the Spring and joy.

Then, we did not think of Autumn,

But now it has indeed come,

And much sooner than I thought.

Now everything is so empty,

Now everything is so heavy,

What made me happy is gone.

Red poppy, why do you wilt already?

Like my heart, you should glow and blaze with fire.

Red poppy that my love gave me,

Are you wilting because I've already lost him?

Blood-red, full of splendour,

Did you bloom yesterday.

But already overnight,

Your beauty has faded.

Red poppy, why do you wilt already?

Like my heart, you should glow and blaze with fire.

Di-di di-di, da-da-da ...

Red poppy, why do you wilt already?

Like my heart, you should glow and blaze with fire.

Red poppy.
