OriginalTraduzione inglese da Subject: Hanns Eisler‎
TRAURIGKEITSADNESS
  
Wer traurig sein will,Whoever wants to be sad
wird vielleicht mich lesen,will perhaps read me,
und er wird denken zwischen den Zeilen:and he will think between the lines:
  
Ja, traurig ist auchYes, this one too
dieser Mensch gewesen,has been sad,
aber kann seine Traurigkeit die meine heilen?but can his sadness heal mine?
  
Ich will dich nicht über die Gründe fragenI won't ask you about the reasons
der Traurigkeit, du Mensch, du Mensch,for your sadness, you people, you people,
du Mensch der besseren Zeiten,you people who live in better times,
du Mensch der besseren Zeiten.you people who live in better times.
  
Die meine wird dir die Geschichte sagen,My story will tell you,
die Jahresdaten meiner Traurigkeiten.the years and dates of my sadness.
