Heubode English translation
von Trauffer

Where are Franziska?
Where are Sandra?
Where is Christian?
Where is Peter?
And where is Hansel?
Where are they all?
They've gone away.
Where are they here, where are they there?
And everyone else?

Not even
a few minutes ago
They were still here.
But suddenly everyone left.
Tell me where they all went.

There's a rumbling,
There's a banging,
There's a sawing and carving going on
Up there.
They're lifting,
And fetching,
First some, and then the others,
And another one.

Then the sun comes,
And Thomas too,
And they all walk past me. I wonder what they are doing
And why I am not there.
