[Intro : Spoken]
|
A small human only pretends to die
|
It wanted to be completely alone
|
The small heart stood still for hours
|
So they decided it was dead
|
It is being buried in wet sand *
|
With a music box in its hand
|
[Verse]
|
The first snow covers the grave
|
It woke the child very softly
|
In a cold winter night
|
The small heart is awakened
|
As the frost flew into the child
|
It wound up the music box
|
A melody in the wind
|
And the child sings from the ground
|
[Chorus]
|
Up and down, rider **
|
And no angel climbs down
|
My heart does not beat anymore
|
Only the rain cries on the grave
|
Up and down, rider
|
A melody in the wind
|
My heart does not beat anymore
|
And the child sings from the ground
|
[Verse]
|
The cold moon, in full magnificence
|
It hears the cries in the night
|
And no angel climbs down
|
Only the rain cries on the grave
|
Between hard oak boards
|
It will play with the music box
|
A melody in the wind
|
And the child sings from the ground
|
[Chorus and: ]
|
Up and down, rider
|
My heart does not beat anymore
|
On Totensonntag they heard
|
This melody from god's field
|
Then they unearthed it
|
They saved the small heart in the child
|
[Chorus]
|
Up and down, rider
|
A melody in the wind
|
My heart does not beat anymore
|
And the child sings on the ground
|
Up and down, rider
|
And no angel climbs down
|
My heart does not beat anymore
|
Only the rain cries on the grave
|
