I am happy that there are clouds in the sky
And that it rains, hails, freezes and snows
I'm also looking forward to the green season
When wild roses and elders bloom
That blackbirds whistle and that bees hum
That mosquitoes bite and that buzzers buzz
That red balloons rise into the blue
That sparrows talk and that fish are silent
I am happy that the moon is in the sky
And that the sun rises every day
That autumn follows summer and spring follows winter
I like it, there's a purpose behind it
Even if the wise-cracked don't see him
You can't understand everything with your head
I'm happy, that's the meaning of life
Above all, I am happy that I am
In me everything is tidy and cheerful
The floorboard flashes, the fire is stoked
On such a day one climbs the ladder
Which leads from earth to heaven
Then man can do what is prescribed for him
Because he loves himself, loves his neighbor
I am happy that I am attached to the beautiful
And never quite get used to the miracle
That everything stays amazing and new
I'm happy that I'm happy
