Perdeler [English translation]

At one side of me are pages of life lived to the full

At the other side are pile of books unread

My yesterday and my tomorrow are all here in my tiny room

I'm thirsty and exhausted but still eager to live

At one side are weary old people

At the other side are the ones to wake up to love hopefully

All the ways of world are here in my untidy room

I fell down many times and got injured but held on to life

On my back are so enormous and heavy burdens

They pulled me back from all over and made me wait

I rested, drank water, it flew down from my lips

The sun rises everyday, just keep the curtains open

At one side of me are clocks working non-stop

At one side are voices coming slowly from the depths

The realities of centuries that I thought I discovered

I put them all on, sometimes they were too big for me

At one side are lips talking non-stop

At other side are offended and silent minds

What if we hit the bottom, we'll sure go up again

One day we exist, and the other we dont, lives are for rent

On my back are so enormous and heavy burdens

They pulled me back from all over me and made me wait

I rested, drank water, it flew down from my lips

The sun rises everyday, just keep the curtains open
