Genauso wie die Sonne, verbreitet auch das Leben
sein Licht in alle Richtungen.
Doch um ein Feuer zu machen, buendeln sich die Sonnenstrahlen
Und dann kommt der Moment, in dem sich unser inneres Feuer
Gesamt und ganz zusammen tut,
so dass das Leben einen Ruck bekommt.
Ihr Wille ist aus Kristall gemacht
Und die Liebe pur
Ihre Schritte sind entschieden
Und ihr Geist frei
Sie fliegen und brennen
mit dem Feuer des Lebens
Don’t waste too much time
Let your will be crystalline
Now fly with the fire of life
Enthusiasm is the sacred
Fire and your spirit
Now let your journey begin
Like the sun, life spreads its light in all different directions
But to make a fire, all the sunrays need to focus in one spot
Then comes the moment, when you focus all the inner fire
So that life will have a meaning
Find your special fire
Some people seem to be mad and behave like mad people
But they’re just free spirits
They have discovered the fire
Don’t expect the crucial answers
And do not ask the crucial questions
To those who think they know it all
With laws and temples and regulations
Fly through the fields of mystery
And your intuition
Practice, keep walking step by step
Journey is the goal
Your flame shall be burning night and day
Love and enjoy the ride
Don’t waste too much time
Let your will be crystalline
Now fly with the fire of life
Enthusiasm is the sacred
Fire and your spirit
Now let your journey begin
