No longer will I carry you in my arms, little girl You grew up fast. And daddy’s back has bent. You learned to walk by yourself And yet for me you’ll always remain a baby Even though your have spread your wings, left the nest And your own nest have built somewhere out there. Now I am alone. Supported by memories... Sitting in the park for hours Watching someone else’s children. Time ticks slowly But it vanishes fast! And a seagull up above Soars overhead Oh, white-winged seagull Carry my prayer Faraway over the interval To the roof over my daughter. |
