Zwei kleine Sterne [English translation]

Refrain

Two little stars stand

at the big heaven's tent.

They will go with you

well in the wide, wide world.

Two little stars are

my very last greeting.

Oh, Thinking of me, when I have to go away!

It was an evening, at the window

I once asked you softly:

Will you stay with me forever?

Oh, my child, you have said.

Refrain

La, la, la, la, la, la,

la, la, la, la, la, la,

la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.

Oh, so many (people) stand at the window,

when the night falls down,

and there are the same words

that the wind brings him from afar.
