Ihren Klang.
Ich verstehe die Sprachen.
Ich verstehe die Sprachen nicht.
Ich hore nur Irhen Klang.
(Your sound I understand the languages.
I don't understand the languages.
I hear only your sound.)
The sun is shining slowly
The birds are flying so low.
Honey you're my one and only,
So pay my what you owe me.
Lights are going down, slowly,
In the woods the animals are moving.
In my dreams you're talking to me.
Your voice is moving through me.
You talk as if you knew me.
So pay me what you owe me.
Beispiel Nummer zweiundzwanzig.
(Example #22.)
The sun is shining slowly
The birds are flying so low.
Honey you're my one and only
So pay me what you owe me.
