Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Der Kleine Trommler by Andrea Berg from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Durch die stille Nacht, parapapam
Through the silent night, Parapapam
Da ging ein kleiner Junge, rapapapam
There was a little boy, Rapapapam
Hielt seine Spielzeugtrommel in der Hand
Holded his toy drum in his hand
Rollt zu den Stahle wo die Krippe stand
Roll to the stone where the crib was
Rapapapam, rapapapam
Rapapapam, rapapapam
Und die Trommel klang, parapapam
And the drum sounded, Parapapam
Durch das Land
Through the country
Liebes Christuskind, parapapam
Dear Christ Child, Parapapam
Bin nur ein armer Junge, rapapapam
I'm just a poor boy, rapapapam
Wo lauter Könige mit Gabeln stehen
Where louder kings stand with forks
Lässt man vielleicht nicht gar nicht zu dir gehn
You may not let you go to you
Hab kein Gold, hab kein Bild
I don't have gold, don't have a picture
Kann nur Trommeln für dich, rapapapam
Can only drums for you, rapapapam
Wenn's dir gefällt
If you like it
Und vom Himmel hoch, parapapam
And up from the sky, parapapam
Da kam ein Stern herab, rapapapam
Then a star came down, Rapapapam
Der fühlte ihn die stillen Straßen entlang
He felt him along the quiet streets
Und seine kleine Trommel klang und sang
And his little drum sounded and sang
Rapapapam, rapapapam
Rapapapam, rapapapam
Das zum heil der Welt, parapapam
The to the salvation of the world, Parapapam
