Ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin [English translation]

I still have a suitcase in Berlin

It's wonderful in Paris,

In the Rue Madeleine.

It's nice to stroll through

Rome in May

Or have a quiet drink of wine

On a summer's night in Vienna

But today - even if you find it laughable -

I still feel attached to Berlin!

I still have a suitcase in Berlin

That's why I have to get there again soon

The blissful moments of days gone by

Ar still contained within my small suitcase

I still have a suitcase in Berlin

It will stay there and there is sense in that

In this way the journey will be rewarding

For when I long to

I'll travel there again!

Luna Park and whirling pool (?)

Little bear at the zoo

Wannsee swimming pool with a water wheel

Clear and happy days!

Werder (?), when the trees are thriving

The park of Sanssouci

Children, wasn't Berlin beautiful!

I'll never forget it.

I still have a suitcase in Berlin

That's why I have to get there again soon

The blissful moments of days gone by

Ar still contained within my small suitcase

I still have a suitcase in Berlin

It will stay there and there is sense in that

In this way the journey will be rewarding

For when I long to

I'll travel there again!

... for I still have a suitcase in Berlin!
