Du bist ein Engel
Und Engel sterben nie
The moon is rising
And the fog is cold
I saw you crying
Deep in the night
Your tears were falling
With a glance
Like an angel
And you are living in the night
The silent darkness keeps you cold
From the paleness into the light
You are coming home again
All deine Schmerzen,
All deine Tränen dieser endlos kalten Zeit
Seien verbrannt in tiefster Unschuld
In meinem Leichenhaus der Einsamkeit
All deine Ängste, all deine Qualen
Lege sie dar auf meinem Altar
Schwarzer Engel der verbotenen Träume
Zieh sie hinunter in dein Grab
You cry, crying away your fading life
You are descending
On an old autumn lane death is prevailing
And you look so pale
Under a lantern
The sky is dark (sky is dark)
And dreams pass by (in eternity)
On the last dawning day
Of the fading angel
Ich erblicke den Engel in der Ferne
Er steigt hinauf ins gleisende Licht
Durch dichten Nebel und der eisigen Sphäre
Ist die Ewigkeit in Sicht
There's the silent dream of the fading angel dying in dignity
