I sit in the salt water, call in a vision of my daughter
– Ech sëtzen am Salzwaasser, ruffen eng Visioun vu Menger Duechter
Light a candle, place my grief upon the altar
– Luucht Eng Käerz un, setzt meng Trauer op Den Altor
Bird in my hands, a flower, a song
– Vugel a mengen Hänn, Eng Blumm, E Lidd
I used to think I knew what sadness was
– Ech hu geduecht datt ech wousst wat Trauregkeet ass
I was wrong
– Ech war falsch
A piece of flesh, a million pounds
– E Stéck Fleesch, Eng Millioun Pond
Am I a woman now?
– Sinn ech Elo Eng Fra?
A crescent moon, an apple sliced
– En Hallefmound, En Apel a Scheiwen geschnidden
Thick in the sky
– Déck am Himmel
The air smells of fruit and smoke
– D ‘ Loft richt No Uebst an Damp
The season is ripe
– Saison déi Zäit
I stay in the house, move the furniture about
– Ech bleiwen Am Haus, réckelen D ‘ Miwwelen ronderëm
Try and control what I can
– Probéiert ze kontrolléieren wat ech kann
And feel the world slip through my hand
– A fillt wéi D ‘ Welt duerch meng Hand rutscht
You can have it all
– Dir kënnt alles hunn
You can have it all
– Dir kënnt alles hunn
Dug a hole in the garden and buried a scream
– E Lach am Gaart gegruewen an e Gejäiz begruewen
And from it grew a bright red tree
– An doraus ass en helle roude Bam gewuess
Shining with jagged leaves
– Glänzend mat gezackte Blieder
And when the wind blows, you can hear it
– A wann De Wand bléist, kënnt dir et héieren
Dug a hole in the garden and buried a scream
– E Lach am Gaart gegruewen an e Gejäiz begruewen
And from it grew a bright red tree
– An doraus ass en helle roude Bam gewuess
Shining with jagged leaves
– Glänzend mat gezackte Blieder
And when the wind blows, you can hear it
– A wann De Wand bléist, kënnt dir et héieren
You can have it all
– Dir kënnt alles hunn
You can have it all
– Dir kënnt alles hunn
(You can have it all)
– (Dir kënnt alles hunn)
A piece of flesh, a million pounds
– E Stéck Fleesch, Eng Millioun Pond
Am I a woman now?
– Sinn ech Elo Eng Fra?
(You can have it all)
– (Dir kënnt alles hunn)
Tree grows tall, can’t cut me down
– Bam wiisst héich, kann mech net ofschneiden
Am I a woman now?
– Sinn ech Elo Eng Fra?
