It Was A Lovely Time (Anke Zohm / Langeoog 1977)/ German - English Translation

The wind blows quietly by your hair
You see the sun, the sky and the sea
Feel the soft white sand at your feet
Feel free like the seagull over you (yourself)

It was a lovely time
I will often still long for it
But nothing in the life lasts for an eternity
Only the sea knows about my tears

We have experienced beautiful together
Soon, many an evening already turned into a new morning
The days passed by much too fast for us
And a couple of words remained unfortunately unsaid

It was a lovely time…

And now I look into your eyes
I want you to be happy today
For there is nothing more beautiful than our friendship
Which helps us in some solitude

It was a lovely time…


German-English Translation as shared by Anke. Rising Sparrow Press decided not to alter presentation/editing to maintain feeling/intent of Anke,songwriter.


Rising Sparrow (and Janie) vote for this as the lullaby of this and next generations...Beautiful.

When The Day Is Over

WHEN THE DAY IS OVER
AND THE LIGHT IS LOW
SHADOWS OF THE EVENING
RISE UP TO THE SKY
PLEASE SEND ME AN ANGEL
WHO'S WATCHING ROUND MY BED
AND GIVE ME YOUR BLESSING
WHICH CARRIES ME THROUGH THE NIGHT


Listening, I am reminded of all the angels that have blessed my life. My Sparrow, Daisy, God's Lake on that Day-too many Angels to name...my deer and our shared sanctuary.
