Rosenstolz - Bastard


Jede Nacht ein langes Warten
jeder Tag geht nie vorbei
bist der Räuber meines Glaubens
und geliebter Samurai

Every night a long wait
Each day is never over
(You)are robbers of my faith
and beloved Samurai


Jedesmal wenn ich Dich sehe
geht die Stunde viel zu schnell und
jedesmal wenn ich dann gehe
ist mein Leben wenig hell
Du bist ein Bastard
ein Miststück

Everytime that I see you
The moment is much too fast
Everytime that I then go
My life is a little pale
You are a bastard
A bastard


bist der Unhold in Person
und ich liege Dir zu Füssen
bist des Wahnsinns liebster Sohn
du bist der Räuber meiner Mauern
warst der Sieger ich Dein Ziel
ich beginn schon zu bedauern
weil es mir so sehr gefiel

(You) are the monster in person
and I lie at your feet
(You) are the madness’ dearest son
You are the robber of my shelter/shell
(You)were the winner I(was)your goal
I am already starting to regret
because I liked it so much


Du bist der Kämpfer meiner Hoffnung
doch auf Dich ist kein Verlass
bist der Wächter meiner Panik
die ich niemals richtig fass
ich versuch von Dir zu lassen
jedesmal ein wenig mehr und
ich begrabe meine Träume
denn ich liebte Dich so sehr
Bist der Bastard in Person
ein Unhold und des Wahnsinns Sohn
bist der Sieger ich Dein Ziel
nur bedauern weils gefiel

You are the warrior of my hope
but you are not reliable
(You) are the guardian of my panic/terror
that I never quite seize/realize
I try to leave you
each time a little more and
I bury my dreams
because I love you so much
(You) are the bastard in person
a monster and son of madness
(You) are the winner I (am)your goal
(I)only regret because I liked (it)

Rosenstolz - Bastard

bist der Räuber meines Glaubens
(You) Are robbers of my faith
-> you can see that there is a missing "Du" here, when you have a close look at the verb!

warst der Sieger ich Dein Ziel
(You) were the winner I (was) your goal

die ich niemals richtig fass
that I never quite believe in
-> maybe it's better to use seize/realize here?

Thanks Steena


Even though I occasionally add words() that I feel are missing, or just to make it clearer, in this case the omissions were so extensive that I assumed the writer was going for something more informal. Maybe just to make the lyrics flow in this case. In the future I'll add where I think it's needed and if I'm wrong someone will probably let me know. Thanks again for your help.


Bye, Macbard

My apologies Steena.

I was going through the song list to see which ones had been done and saw that you had already done this song. I thought that I had checked before doing the song I try not to do ones that have been done already. Sorry!
