Текст и перевод песни Hannes Wader - He sä mi so vel

He sä mi so vel

He sä mi so vel
Un ik sä em keen Wort
Un all wat ik sä, weer:
"Jehann, ik mutt fort!"

He sä mi vun Lev
Un vun Himmel un Eer
He sä mi vun Allens –
Ik weet ni mal mehr!

He sä mi so vel
Un ik sä em keen Wort
Un all wat ik sä, weer:
"Jehann, ik mutt fort!"

He heel mi de Hann′
Un he be mi so dull
Ik schull em doch gut wen
Un ob ik ni wull?

Ik weer je ni bös
Awer sä doch keen Wort
Un all wat ik sä, weer:
"Jehann, ik mutt fort!"

Nu sitt ik un denk
Un denk jümmer deran
Mi dücht, ik muss seggt hebbn:
"Wa geern, mi Jehann!"

He sä mi so vel
Un ik sä em keen Wort
Un all wat ik sä, weer:
"Jehann, ik mutt fort!"

Un doch, kumt dat wedder
So segg ik keen Wort
Un hollt he mi, segg ik:
"Jehann, ik mutt fort!"

He says to me pretty good

He says to me very good things
And I say not a word
And everything I say is:
"I must be going, good sir!"

He talks to me of love
And heaven and earth
He talks to me of all kinds of things
I don't even know what they are!

He says to me very good things
And I say not a word
And everything I say is:
"I must be going, good sir!"

He held my hand
And he kissed me so hard
He said I should be good to him
And would I not?

I was never unkind
But I said not a word
And everything I said was:
"I must be going, good sir!"

Now I sit and think
And I always think about it
I think I must have said:
"I'd love to, good sir!"

He says to me very good things
And I say not a word
And everything I say is:
"I must be going, good sir!"

And yet, if he comes again
I will say not a word
And if he holds me, I will say:
"I must be going, good sir!"
