Unter dem Eis [English translation]

I swim since I'm able to think

Underneath mirror-like ice

Swim with held breath

My hands are very white

And too numb as to reach highly

Slowly, I drift lost

Cannot break through the layer of ice

As tired as I am

Come above me

And thaw this ice

Alas, show me the sky

Take me away from here

Show me the clouds how they drift by

What I need

Is your mouth

Is your breath on the ice

Out of which you free me

For our anger lets ice thaw into water

Through the warmth of our skin

Sometimes, from above

Space-deep eyes look at me

And then, with my fists I strike against

The ice as long as I can

Somebody had to wait out there

Somebody who sees through the ice

Who's got the heart to go onto

The cold, even, snow-covered surface

Come above me and thaw this ice

Alas, show me the sky

Take me away from here

Show me the clouds how they drift by

What I need

Is your mouth

Is your breath on the ice

Out of which you free me

For our anger lets ice thaw into water

Through the warmth of our skin

Come and lay your hands

On the ice above me

Come and aspirate your breath

No fire burns that hot

Come and lay your lips

Onto my cold skin

The moon appears like the morn

Summer wind blows from the north

Alas, show me the sky

Take me away from here

Show me the clouds how they drift by

What I need

Is your mouth

Is your breath on the ice

Out of which you free me

For our anger lets ice thaw into water

Through the warmth of our skin
