Journey Home
The wind sings gently a quiet song
Whey-hey-hey-hay-jo
The longing carries (us) into the distance
The way is still so long
When homesickness triumphs over wanderlust
The harbor lies unreachable
So far that no little bird flies here
Then we'll journey home
The years go by like birds
Whey-hey-hey-hay-jo
We've already been to every place
The way is still so long
When homesickness triumphs over wanderlust
The harbor lies unreachable
So far that no little bird flies here
Then we'll journey home
The wind raises its voice
Whey-hey-hey-hay-jo
What was the scent of home like?
The way is still so long
The roaring wind sings me a song
Whey-hey-hey-hay-jo
My heart pulls me homeward
The way is still so long
When homesickness triumphs over wanderlust
The harbor lies unreachable
So far that no little bird flies here
Then we'll journey home
The winds sing loudly as a choir
Whey-hey-hey-hay-jo
familiar melodies in my ear
The way is not long anymore
When homesickness triumphs over wanderlust
The harbor lies unreachable
So far that no little bird flies here
Then we'll journey home
When homesickness triumphs over wanderlust
The harbor lies unreachable
So far that no little bird flies here
Then we'll journey home
Then we'll journey home

Firmament
It's been so very long
I don't know anymore when it began
Like a comet in its course
You appeared
(You) Have seen me, have touched me
(You) Have sensed my loneliness
(You) Were my light and my guide
In the darkness
There, where the moon touches the night
There will I wait for you
Far away, over my star
I am with you all the time
For my heart calls your name forever
Up to the wide firmament
Far upwards to the firmament
But our goals in the distance
Were not the same stars
How united we are
Was determined from the start
That even if this course ends someday
Then will the wind turn for us
Because the ravages of time
Have separated us
There, where the moon touches the night
There will I wait for you
Far away, over my star
I am with you all the time
For my heart calls your name forever
Up to the wide firmament
Far upwards to the firmament
Each and every star laughs only for me
I think everytime just of you
You haven't been here for a long time now
I thank you, I thank you
(I) Have searched for you, have found you
(I) Have bound my heart to you
For what do space and time matter
if the essential remains?
There, where the moon touches the night
There will I wait for you
Far away, over my star
I am with you all the time
For my heart calls your name forever
Up to the wide firmament
Far upwards to the firmament
