Mensch [English translation]

Currently is right,

currently is good

nothing is really important

after the ebb comes the flow

at the beach of life

without a reason, without a mind

is nothing in vain

i build the dreams upon the sand

and it's, it's ok

everything is on its way

and it is apparent time

jaunty and free

and the human is called human

because he forgets

because he represses

and because he marvels and toughens

because he warms up when he is telling

and because he laughes

because he lives

you are missing

the firmament is open

cloudless and ocean blue

telephone, gas, electricity

unpaid and it's ok

share with me your peace

if only borrowed

I do not want your love

I just want your word/promise

and it's, it's ok

everything is on its way

and it is apparent time

unclouded and easy

and the human is called human

because he errs and because he fights

and because he hopes and loves

because he sympathizes and forgives

and because he laughes

and because he lives

you are missing

oh, cause he laughes

and because he lives

you are missing

and it's, it's ok

everything is on its way

and it is apparent time

unclouded and easy

and the human is called human

because he forgets

because he represses

and because he raves and believes

leans and trusts

and because he laughes

and because he lives

you are missing

oh, it's all right

it hurts consistently

and it is apparent time

without a plan , without an escort

and the human is called human

because he remembers and fights

and because he hopes and loves

because he sympathizes and forgives

and because he laughes

and because he lives

you are missing

oh, because he laughes

because he lives

you are missing
