When the world was woken
|
Save all unknowing eyes
|
And thoughts that once were spoken
|
Left only to despise
|
And when the dawn is breaking
|
Look upward to the sky
|
If life is so hard to live
|
Why not die?
|
When the world has woken
|
And shadows leave the air
|
Then each spell will be broken
|
For everyone who cares
|
The day will then be endless
|
The night will soon pass by
|
If life is so hard to live
|
Why not die?
|
|
When the world has woken
|
For all who see the sun
|
And gentle words are spoken
|
The dawning has begun
|
Then man can live together
|
With one triumphant cry
|
If life is so hard to live
|
Why not die?
|
