Sog nischt kejnmol [English translation]

Don't you tell me that you'll take the final way/

Even when blue sky's overshadowed by the gray/

Sure the hour that we're dreaming for will come/

We'll arrive with steps a-pounding like a drum.

Sure the hour that we're dreaming for will come/

We'll arrive with steps a-pounding like a drum.
