Paroles et traduction Peter Reber - Stürmischi Zyte

Stürmischi Zyte

I weis ned wien es aafaht
Ned wies z'ändi geit
Jede erläbts u mues derdür
Wöu eim käne die Burdi treit

Mängs esch doch für d'Chatz gsi
Bisch gschtange wie vorere Wand
Hesch tröimt, vonere Tube uf em Dach
Anstatt em Spatz i dr Hand

Stürmischi Zyte uf em länge Wäg vo geschter bis nach hüt
Stürmischi Zyte wo Chraft hei bruucht und glich luegsch öppe zrügg
Stürmischi Zyte u jede trifft se aa uf sire Walz
Stürmischi Zyte u gäb se ned, fählti i dere Suppe ds Salz

Hesch bättet u hesch gfluechet
U glich hets alls nüt gnützt
Hesch dr Muet verlore
U de weder d'Ärmel hingere glitzt

U wes di tüecht het jetzt sigs de gnue
U Geduld scho lang verbruucht
Ja de ischs erscht richtig cho
U het die zäme gschtuucht

Stürmischi Zyte uf em länge Wäg vo geschter bis nach hüt
Stürmischi Zyte wo Chraft hei bruucht und glich luegsch öppe zrügg
Stürmischi Zyte u jede trifft se aa uf sire Walz
Stürmischi Zyte u gäb se ned fählti i dere Suppe ds Salz

Zwe Schritt wod hesch vorwärts gmacht
Besch eine fürsi cho
Langsam hets der dämmeret
Es sigi halt im Läbe eso

Hesch versuechts mit Aastand znäh
U hätsch die fascht driigschickt
Hesch di plötzlich weder gwehrt
Und am Universurm ume gflickt

Stürmischi Zyte uf em länge Wäg vo geschter bis nach hüt
Stürmischi Zyte wo Chraft hei bruucht und glich luegsch öppe zrügg
Stürmischi Zyte u jede trifft se aa uf sire Walz
Stürmischi Zyte u gäb se ned fählti i dere Suppe ds Salz

U we de mal dä Sturm sich leit
U du ziesch di Bilanz
De wünsch i der du luegisch zrügg
U sigsch sogar e chli stolz

Du heigsch versuecht so guet de chönntsch
De Chopf nach ufe zha
S'Gsicht im Wind u d'Ouge off
Dere Wält es Schnippli zschlah

Stürmischi Zyte uf em länge Wäg wo jede vo üs geit
Stürmischi Zyte u gäbs se ned fählti d'Hefe i däm Teig
Stürmischi Zyte u jede trifft se aa uf sire Walz
Stürmischi Zyte u gäb se ned fählti i dere Suppe ds Salz

Stürmischi Zyte uf em länge Wäg vo geschter bis nach hüt
Stürmischi Zyte wo Chraft hei bruucht und glich luegsch öppe zrügg
Stürmischi Zyte u jede trifft se aa uf sire Walz
Stürmischi Zyte u gäb se ned fählti i dere Suppe ds Salz

Stormy Times

I don't know how it started
Not how it's going to end
Everyone experiences it and has to go through it
Because no one is spared the burden

Sometimes it was just for the cat
You stood there like a wall
You dreamed of a pigeon on the roof
Instead of the sparrow in your hand

Stormy times on the long path from yesterday to today
Stormy times that need strength and yet you always look back
Stormy times and everyone meets them on their pilgrimage
Stormy times and don't let them go, they add salt to the soup

You prayed and you cursed
And yet nothing helped
You lost your courage
And then your sleeves rolled up again

And if you think it's enough now
And patience has long been exhausted
Yes, then it's only just begun
And it has shaken you together

Stormy times on the long path from yesterday to today
Stormy times that need strength and yet you always look back
Stormy times and everyone meets them on their pilgrimage
Stormy times and don't let them go, they add salt to the soup

Two steps forward
You came one step too far
Slowly it dawned on you
It's just like that in life

You tried to approach with decency
And you almost sent them packing
Suddenly you defended yourself again
And patched up the universe

Stormy times on the long path from yesterday to today
Stormy times that need strength and yet you always look back
Stormy times and everyone meets them on their pilgrimage
Stormy times and don't let them go, they add salt to the soup

And when the storm subsides
And you draw up your balance sheet
Then I hope you look back
And see even a little bit of pride

You tried your best
Your head up high
Your face in the wind and your eyes open
To give this world a flick

Stormy times on the long path that each of us walks
Stormy times and if there were none, the yeast would be missing in this dough
Stormy times and everyone meets them on their pilgrimage
Stormy times and don't let them go, they add salt to the soup

Stormy times on the long path from yesterday to today
Stormy times that need strength and yet you always look back
Stormy times and everyone meets them on their pilgrimage
Stormy times and don't let them go, they add salt to the soup
