Das Leben ist schön English translation
von Gregor Meyle

When the day has come
And I close my eyes
And my life now leaves me.

When the day has come
And I close my eyes
And my life now leaves me.
When the day has come
And I flow with the water,
I hope that you will not forget me.


I don't want any eulogies,
I don't want to see any tears,
No choir singing Hallelujah.
I want you to celebrate,
I want you to dance,
With a smile on your face
And a drink in your hand.
A hot air balloon,
With the words written on it in huge letters:
Life is beautiful, even when it passes
And if you're going to cry, then please cry for joy
Then I'll be up there
And sing along with you...

and I'll sing along with you.

Pick out the prettiest dresses
And come in the brightest colors,
Like a thousand lights in the nite.
Each and every one of you
I will always carry with me
Even when I leave you someday.

I'll sing along with you.

And I'll sing along with you.
