Orion [English translation]

In a thousand years, when we're both long gone

There will be another evening just like this

In the blue sky of distant worlds

Just like tonight, Orion will shine

The green oak that whispers into the night

Will be an ancient dark tree then

Rustling in the wind like a dark memory

Of this night when you and me stood beneath it

The light of the same stars will glimmer through the dusk

Only a different couple will hold each other here

Just like tonight, Orion will shine into springtime dusk

And maybe, just like me, the girl will say:

Oh, how far and how beautiful it is

How its seven stars shine brightly now

In a thousand years, when we're both long gone

Orion will still be shining in the sky

Kiss me for a thousand long years

When another young couple will kiss here again
