Alter Freund [English translation]

Yesterday I heard you got engaged

Have you finally finished to have fun

At the time I'd moved you more then when you went

When you were just at the neck to one of them

I can hardly believe it

Old friend, it happened

For a long time you have resisted

Old friend, take it easy

Because you had more than one string to one's bow

And the freedom became slowly expensive

But that's over, now there's nothing going on

There's sadness in the little bar

Where once none where safe before us

It catched me a bit earlier

And it's not that bad at the end

I still remember, how they said

Old friend, it happened

For a long time you have resisted

Old friend, take it easy

Because you had more than one string to one's bow

And the freedom became slowly expensive

But that's over, now there's nothing going on

Old friend, it happened

For a long time you have resisted

Old friend, take it easy

Because you had more than one string to one's bow

And the freedom became slowly expensive

But that's over, now there's nothing going on

Old friend, it happened

For a long time you have resisted

Old friend, take it easy

Because you had more than one string to one's bow

And the freedom became slowly expensive

But that's over, now there's nothing going on
