Ein Engel [English translation]

An Angel who shows you the way

Who leads you when you're circling aimlessly through the universe

An Angel who takes you by the hand

And bursts into song whenever you're afraid

An Angel who's always near you

Who's there for you when you're in danger

An Angel as a comforting light

You say this Angel doesn't exist

An Angel who listens to you carefully*

Who chases away what disturbs your rest at night

An Angel who holds you in his arm

And puts your heater at "warm" in winter

An Angel who writes you a letter

Who stays awake with you when fear envelops you

And worries about you

You say this Angel doesn't exist.

But this Angel does exist

To protect and keep you

This Angel does exist

In various shapes every day

He never leaves you standing in the rain

He never leaves you alone

But He can easily be overlooked

For He can be everywhere

An Angel who encourages you once again

And performs it ever again very well

An Angel who buys you a drink

And pushes you out of the house on a sunny day**

An Angel who gives you a friendly wink

Drinks coffee with you,

And sometimes talks sensibly with you

You say this Angel doesn't exist.

But this Angel does exist

To protect and keep you

This Angel does exist

In various shapes every day

He never leaves you standing in the rain

He never leaves you alone

But He can easily be overlooked

For He can be everywhere

You've already seen him today

I think you've known him for a long time

And when you put thinking to a halt

At some time you'll come to understand

But this Angel does exist

To protect and keep you

This Angel does exist

In various shapes every day

He never leaves you standing in the rain

He never leaves you alone

But He can easily be overlooked

For He can be everywhere

But this Angel does exist

To protect and keep you

This Angel does exist

In various shapes every day

He never leaves you standing in the rain

He never leaves you alone

But He can easily be overlooked

For He can be everywhere
