Ein Bote Aus Besseren Welten
Udo Jürgens
A Messenger From Better Worlds
You know this longing
For peace far and wide
Landscape beyond the tears
And love without suffering
These are just illusions
Too good to be true
I hear cannons from afar
Already the blood-red glow of the flames
But my dream always catches up with me
I would love to be
A messenger from better worlds
Who only tells you about the good and the beautiful
I would love to be
A messenger from better worlds
But for our sake, I'll also tell you what I don't like
I see life's hardships
Don't want to run away from them
Only in this way can gardens
Once blooming without tank tracks
The dark smoke will clear
I would love to be
A messenger from better worlds
Who only tells you about the good and the beautiful
I would love to be
A messenger from better worlds
But for our sake, I'll also tell you what I don't like
I call everything by its name
What injustice, misery, cowardice and hatred
I change what I can
And take the rest calmly
I would love to be
A messenger from better worlds
I would love to bring at least hope into your world
Certainly, many a song has brightened up many a night
