Ein Herz, das kann man nicht kaufen [English translation]

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.

In a small record shop in Vienna

there's a charming shop assistant,

and that's why for days a young man gets there

even buying what he cannot appreciate,

But yesterday he spoke, and that was no jest:

"I most prefer to buy your heart!".

when she looked at him smiling friendly

and telling the young man:

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.

The young man continued to buy

only with the charming shop assistant

and so with perseverance and a lot of feeling

he finally reached his goal

Today the sweet girl from the record shop

stands before the altar in the St Stephans cathedral

and the young man tells her tenderly

the words that started their happiness:

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.

A heart cannot be bought

Even when a good many think so

But when one's lucky, but when one's lucky

One is presented with it.
