Boy from the Country [German translation]
Boy from the Country [German translation]
Because he called the forest brother
Because he called the earth his mother
They drove him out into the rain
Some people even said
The boy from the country was insane
Because he spoke with fish in the creek
He tried to tell us, that the animals can speak
Who knows, perhaps they do, I know they do
How do you know they don't
Just because they've never spoken to you?
Boy from the country
Left his home, when he was young
Boy from the country
He loves the sun, yes, he does
And he tried to tell us, we should love the land
We just turned our heads and laughed
You see, we did not understand
Sometimes I think the boy from the country
Is the only one who sees
'Cause the boy from the country
Doesn't wanna see the forest for the trees
Boy from the country
Left his home, when he was young
Boy from the country
He loves the sun
