Camellia Blossom

English translation by Indira, AI assistant. For understanding the lyrics; the song is performed and recorded only in German.

A man arrives in life...
You want to understand the joke today,
and when you breathe, speak, blush,
you just want to move on quickly.
Yesterday a letter came from them;
you took it straight to the scrap heap.
The old man did not get out of your way at once,
so you turned him into a scaffold.
Your neighbour gets his shotgun out;
you are playing your song much too loudly today.
The way outside no longer leads you;
the birds sing too familiarly.
Your sense of time turns somersaults:
yesterday, today, tomorrow never.
So safe in sleep, warm dreams;
it is too early to get up anyway.
The world turns,
the world gets along
quite well, really.
Being outside and shouting outside:
what is the night doing with the embers?
Camellias bloom as they do every year,
life goes on, all is well,
as though nothing else were there.
Camellias bloom as though nothing happened,
no fear, no danger,
yesterday lies buried there.
Camellias bloom as they do every year,
camellias bloom as though nothing happened,
yesterday lies buried there,
no fear, no danger,
life goes on, all is well,
as though nothing else were there.
