Was wirklich zählt auf dieser Welt [English translation]

When you're sad once in a while

perhaps it might be

because there's never sufficient money

then tell yourself that there are a lot of things

the richest man

can't buy

There is ... longing, dreams

the rustling of the trees at night

There is ... loyalty, friends,

somebody who's attached to you ...

What really counts in this world

can't be had for money!

When in the city's bustle

a total stranger smiles at you

who's likely to think like you

you can buy

this brief feeling of bliss

but never in life.

There is, youth, old age

Butterflies inebriated by summer*

There are ... sun, stars

moon at the night blue firmament

What really counts in this world

can't be had for money!

Often a mere trifle

will clear up

every day's grayness

We're surrounded by happiness;

today only children

perceive it still.

There is ... homeland, quiet

and the song of a cricket

There is ... rain, flowers,

poppies glowing in the field.

What really counts in this world

can't be had for money!

You can't have it for money!
