Morgenstern (English)
Rammstein · Other Songs - Rammstein
if she looks into the sky,
then the light is afraid,
shines from down in her face
So she must hide herself on the day,
does not want to frighten the light nevertheless,
lives in the shade to the light passes,
sees a star being resplendent and implores
draw me beauty on the cheeks
Morning star oh, seems!,
on the face mine,
throw a warm light,
on my noface,
say to me that I'm not alone
Ugly, you are ugly,
you, you are ugly
I went alone to the night,
the late birds any longer did not sing,
saw sun children in the milling crowd,
and so I shouted to the starry sky
Morning star oh, shine!,
on the dearest my,
throw a warm light,
on her noface,
say to her she is not alone
Morning star oh, shine!,
on the soul my,
throw a warm light,
on his heart breaks,
say her, that I cry
Because you, you are ugly,
you are simply ugly
Humans are nevertheless an eye animal,
beautiful things I wish for
but you, you are not beautiful, no
Morning star oh, shine!,
on the dearest my,
throw a warm light,
on her [ugly face],
say to her she is not alone
And the star wants to shine,
on the dearest my,
the chest me warms goes,
where the life strikes,
seeingwith the heart,
she is beautiful
