Here is Christina again with another beautiful German song:
"Für Dich" by the Söhne Mannheims, the "Sons of the city Mannheim."
As the name of the band indicates, it was founded in Mannheim by Xavier Naidoo and others in 1995.
The beginning of the song is in German, the end in English:
Für dich
Es ist so, wie du sagtest.
Du merkst es, wenn du erwachsen bist. Und so ist es jetzt. Ich dank euch für was ihr getan habt. Wie viele Eltern machen schlapp? Ihr habt euch durchgesetzt. Jetzt versteh ich euer Verhalten. Inmitten dieser Gewalten
Blieb ich so gut wie unverletzt.
Wie konntet ihr das durchstehen
Ohne Amoklauf und Durchdrehen?
Ich hab euch unterschätzt. Refrain: Eltern wie Engel, Engel wie Eltern,
Wer sonst hier hält für dich diese
Welt an?
Für dich, für dich...
Ihr habt nie aufgegeben.
Im Glauben an ein Leben Habt ihr es geschafft. Von brennenden Schiffen zu springen, um euer Leben zu ringen, Wie habt ihr das gemacht? Auch wenn ich mich oft weigerte, Meinen Respekt nie zeigte, Ich zeige ihn euch jetzt. Refrain: Eltern wie Engel, Engel wie Eltern,
Wer sonst hier hält für dich diese
Welt an?
Für dich, für dich... You can see the changes in my eyes, It’s no surprise.
Maybe I’m just getting older or
I’m getting wiser,
But thank you, Momma,
for everything you’ve done for me.
It’s like an angel came to earth
just to set me free.
And I hope one day I can share the energy, Give it to my own son like my father heavenly. And Lord I hope you are hearing me, I’m sacrificing myself eternally. And dear Poppa,
thank you for your philosophy,
I’m indebted to you perpetually. Yeah, I stand here now
and I hope that I make you all proud.

For you
It is just like you said.
You notice when you’re grown up. And that’s how it is now. I thank you for what you’ve done. How many parents just quit?
You prevailed.
Now I understand your behavior.
In the middle of these forces
I remained virtually unharmed.
How could you stick it out Without going on a rampage and losing it? I underestimated you.
Chorus:
Parents like angels, angels like parents, Who else keeps the world in check for you? For you, for you…
You never gave up.
With your belief in a life You succeeded. To jump from burning ships To fight for your life How did you do it?
Even if I often refused,
Never showed my respect I’m showing it to you now.
Chorus:
Parents like angels, angels like parents, Who else keeps the world in check for you? For you, for you… You can see the changes in my eyes, It’s no surprise. Maybe I’m just getting older or
I’m getting wiser,
But thank you, Momma,
for everything you’ve done for me.
It’s like an angel came to earth
just to set me free.
And I hope one day I can share the energy, Give it to my own son like my father heavenly. And Lord I hope you are hearing me, I’m sacrificing myself eternally. And dear Poppa,
thank you for your philosophy,
I’m indebted to you perpetually. Yeah, I stand here now
and I hope that I make you all proud.
