"Close your eyes and count to ten.
I will go and hide again"

 

Silver Star

"Close your eyes
and count to ten.
I will go
and hide again",
said the father to his little princess.

Cold was the night.
So glad was the child.

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.

Three days later
the strangers came,
took the little princess
and drove her away.
"Father, father where are you?"

Cold was the night.
Oh, lonesome child.

I wanna shine like a silver star.
I`ll follow the moonlight.
Tonight I`ll be the star.
I`am the silver star.

Beneath a tower
The princess was found.
Her eyes are open,
but still she counts.
"Father, father please stop this game!

Cold was the night.
Dead was the child.

I wanna shine like a silver star.
I`ll follow the moonlight.
Tonight I`ll be the star.
I`am the silver star.

Das Steinerne Kind

...und so wanderte das Kind fort -
schlafwandelnd.

Das Kind 
der steinernen Mutter.
Das versteinerte Kind ?
Versteinert ?

Es lief über Berge,
deren Schatten 
ihm die letzte Wärme raubten.

Durch Wüsten lief das Kind,
deren Trockenheit 
ihm fast alles Lebensspendene nahm.

Schwimmend durchquerte das Kind 
selbst berstende Flüsse,
deren Lauf 
es ihm unmöglich machte 
zurückzuschauen.

Das versteinerte Kind.
Versteinertes Kind ?

Nach dieser qualvollen Reise 
kam das Kind an 
in einem großen Tal.

Das steinerne Kind.
Das versteinerte Kind ?

Es lebte.
