Bevor [English translation]

I can't say that I've had the best of luck

Or that I won every time

I can't say I overcame every temptation

But I know I've never stopped trying

In my time, I've had my share of sorrows

But I never lost hope, there's a light I can see

The greatest trial

The greatest of all

Still lies before me.

Many times, the wind ripped at the rooftops

But mine always held, and still stands

The wind broke other lives into fragments

But that was in faraway lands

I stood there myself

And it blew right through me

So strong that I felt I would freeze

But the greatest storm

The greatest of all

Still lies before me.

And as the river came over its bank

And I watched it on TV

It didn't sweep my belongings away

But it's never come closer to me

So far I've always been lucky

I've always found a sheltering tree

The greatest flood

The greatest of all

Still lies before me.

The greatest flood

The greatest of all

Still lies before me.
