English Translation:

A Prayer

He who sits somewhere up there in the heavens
He who heals all the sick
He who gives great joy to children
He who makes judgments
He is in the heavens and He is the only one
He, the great and awe-inspiring
He is the one who protects us from troubles

God, watch over us, please, like children
Watch please and don’t leave
Give us light and the joy of youth
Give us strength, more and more
Watch over us, please, like children
Watch please and don’t leave
Give us light and the joy of youth
Also allow us to love

What still remains for us in our days?
What remains all day long?
Sunshine, hope and so many sights
Nights and days of dreams
He is in the heavens and He is the only one
He, the great and awe-inspiring
He is the one who protects us from troubles.

God, watch over us, please, like children
Watch please and don’t leave
Give us light and the joy of youth
Give us strength, more and more
Watch over us, please, like children
Watch please and don’t leave
Give us light and the joy of youth
Also allow us to love
