Laufderzeit - Zeitnot

lyrics

Zeitnot* ( Time pressure)
1)Learn to rise and learn to fall
Accept fate’s turn – it’s your destiny
Clock ticking is heard everywhere
I will count minutes
Choose whether you want to beat or to cry
Hurry to live without fear.
Latecomer pays twice
For every lost moment.
How many breaths
till your last day?
You won’t know if you ask.
Your future is obscure.
How much does your time cost?
It is a godsend and a burden.
Every day may be the last
Who is ready to pay for it higher price?
Refrain:
Zeitnot
Zeitnot
Life is flying away
Life is irretrievably vanishing
Zeitnot!very soon
Zeitnot!life span expires
You haven’t done enough in your life
You were afraid of being brave
2) The battle with time is meaningless
You can’t win it
Pyramids look into eternity
But your life is fleeting.
It is your decision whether you want
to flare with all your might
or to smolder together with the others
enjoying the longevity.

*We use in Russian the German word ‘Zeitnot’ when we want to say that there is little time left.
