Vergangen, vergessen, vorüber [English translation]

[chorus]

Past, forgotten, over

past, forgotten, all over.

Time spreads a coat over it.

Past, forgotten, all over.

Who can know where we will end up one day?

Who can know what will happen one day?

Who can know whether we will be stranded one day?

It's always the same (*).

[chorus]

Not one cross is standing in the broad oceans,

where many a ship is smashed in a tempest.

Not a word and nowhere a name:

That is the fate of sailors in this world.

[chorus]
