Man - Hold on to the world strongly. Embrace it And do good for all.
Don't fall and decline into the abyss, Man, in the world. Let's raise up our hands, And keep our fingers crossed For the good there is in this world. Man, in the world.
Man - Hold on to the world strongly. Embrace it And do good for all.
May the world go on, and continue to turn May you be filled with the heart's desire of the people Human being, in the world. Therefore adopt the world into your heart And kiss the lips of the one you love Man, in the world.
Man, human being Hold on to the world strongly. Drink from the cup and leave nothing over Rinse yourself clean of every bitter taste Man, human being. Know how to give in and to forgive all. Embrace the world, and go out to join the dance. Man, in the world.
A b y s s . . . Look up to the heavens . . . |
