Europa [English translation]

When the stars get dark

And pity bears sadness

When in the shadows of prosperity

(Europe’s last hours ring)

Comes the time of the Pied Piper

Cunningly you play your song

Singing of false hope

To those whom don’t see it anymore1

See the stars go dark

Does the light still shine this night?

Who made the fire?

See the stars cry bitterly

When freedom falls

And it blows in the wind of time

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Cohesion and humanity

Used to be the foundation

Look at us now, after a few years

Today of these different values

All the many golden stars are so beautiful, yet far away

From the trashes of all the wars

Have we still not learned anything?

See the stars go dark

Does the light still shine this night?

Who made the fire?

See the stars cry bitterly

When freedom falls

And it blows in the wind of time

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

As pity bore sadness

(Did you cry or laugh?)

Europes last hour rings

(Did you cry or laugh?)

Was have you done?

(Did you cry or laugh?)

Did you cry or laugh?

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

See the stars go dark

Does the light still shine this night?

Who made the fire?

See the stars cry bitterly

When freedom falls

And it blows in the wind of time

See the stars go dark

Does the light still shine this night?

Who made the fire?

See the stars cry bitterly

When freedom falls

And it blows in the wind of time
