Wie schön, daß du geboren bist English translation
von Rolf Zuckowski

It can rain today
Be stormy or snowing
Because you shine
Like the sunshine
Today is your birthday
So we celebrate
All your friends
Are happy with you

How beautiful that you were born
Otherwise we would have really missed you
How beautiful that we're together
We congratulate you, birthday child

Our good wishes
Have their reason
Please stay
Happy and healthy for even longer
Seeing you so happy
Is what pleases us


There are already enough tears
In this world

How beautiful that you were born
Otherwise we would have really missed you
How beautiful that we're together
We congratulate you, birthday child

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
It doesn't matter at all
Your birthday comes around
Only once a year
So let's celebrate
Until we drop
Today there will be dancing
Singing and laughing

How beautiful that you were born
We would have really missed you otherwise
How beautiful that we're together
We congratulate you, birthday child
