DAYS OF STILLNESS
A PEACEFUL SUNRISE
Singable translation:
Here it comes at last - a peaceful sunrise
The upper deck is finally safe and warm
And we can wander out from down below
Pick the pieces up that were scattered by the storm
Here it comes at last - a peaceful sunrise
I'd forgotten how it looked to me
But we can finally open up the doors
And release the birds
To fly across the sea
Here it comes at last - a peaceful sunrise
I'll come and look outside with you
The flood's begun to dry
And maybe there is land not far away
And Two by Two;
we'll go out Two by Two
We'll look up to the sky
Waiting for the dove to start the day
Here it comes at last - a peaceful sunrise
Now that I've lost, oh, all I ever had
Come sit with me, my friend, upon the deck
Won't you cry with me how yesterday went bad
Here it comes at last a peace . . .
. . . dove to start the day
Here it comes at last...
... a peaceful sunrise
The water's giving way and see that rainbow
It's time to go, now Armageddon's gone
Here it comes at last a peace . . .
. . . dove to start the day

| DAYS OF QUIET |
The day of stillness are coming
after the great and terrible quake
it's now possible to rest on the balcony
and to collect the fractures of the storm.
The day of stillness are coming
I already forgot what they look like
it's now possible to open the door
to send the birds to the wind.
The day of stillness are coming
we'll come out to the window to see
if the water has by now parched
maybe there's already soil on the horizon
in pairs, pairs
we'll go out in pairs, pairs
we'll look to the sky
we'll wait together for the dove.
The day of stillness are coming
after we have already forgotten it all
sit with me now on the balcony
cry with me together over yesterday.
The day of stillness are coming
the two of us here together on the mountain
the water already came down and there's already a rainbow
it's possible to get up, the end of the world has passed. |
