Solang' ich denken kann [English translation]

Her silhouette against the glittering light

Sparkling rays play around her face

She turns to me, self-confident

Her gaze meets mine, and she smiles silently.

Her golden hair lights up, and it streams

around her naked shoulders when she turns

No, it hits me then,

I've never seen an image so beautiful, as long as I can remember

She leans and sinks her head in her arms

I think of her tender, flexible, and warm

She has taken out her hairbands and clips

Her hair rustles softly, when she moves.

And I perceive again the smell of her skin,

and the pulse in my arteries beats wildly and beats loudly

She comes to me and embraces me without words

I have never been happier, as long as I can remember

She has put her hair back up,

covered her hips with a silken cloth

Her fingers draw, when she looks at me,

invisible letters on her skin.

And she's known for so long already, that I know to interpret them.

And she reveals a secret to me, full of pride

And I share it with her silently from now on,

I have never been richer, as long as I can remember
