Naturfilme [English translation]

We're sitting by the fire, the fire's crackling as if it were real

We're talking about everything we're interested in

We're watching TV, having a snack

And because everything's done, we're having a beer

Yes, and then you ask me: What would you like best to watch?

And I say nature films, because there you can see

How beautiful the world is and what animals do

Where birds migrate when it gets cold in Berlin.

Time's elapsing, the rain is tapping at the window, typical autumn

The leaves are falling from the trees

We look at each other, we totally love each other

And because it's getting dark, we have time to dream

Yes, and then you ask me: What would you like best to watch?

And I say nature films, because there you can see

How beautiful the world is and what animals do

Where birds migrate when it gets cold in Berlin.

Can you see the desert, can you see the ocean?

Can you hear the wind? It's coming here from a very distant place

It's already been there when everything began

The first woman, the first man

Yes, and then you ask me: What would you like best to watch?

And I say nature films, because there you can see

How beautiful the world is and what animals do

Where birds migrate when it gets cold in Berlin.
