Pilgerlied [English translation]

I'm just a pilgrim, I wander through the night

Here comes a demon, he brought me pain

He makes me endure what once also befell him

He will only give it a rest when he's done everything

I didn't want to suffer as he once did

I didn't want to go with him, but he crossed my path

I must do as he says, for his wish is my command

What can I do, he wants my soul?

What did I ever do?

What did I ever do?

He rips my doublet open, cuts my throat

My chapter will be cut short, oh, my soul shudders

What have I done to cause such a thing to happen to me?

I don't know why, what did I do wrong?

The holy St. Peter comes and helps me,

Defeating this demon, releasing me from the beast

Now I may live again and praise the Lord

For anything is more beautiful than your own death

What did I ever do?

What did I ever do?

What did I ever do?

What did I ever do?
