My friend,

Die Kornblume

Please don’t ever

Die, Die Kornblume
Or not before my time

Somehow by seed

By air

By boat

By chance

By the wing of a beautiful Schmetterling

Die Kornblume she did come

And then she left

And went away

And left me feeling numb

Dear Die Kornblume

I plead you now

Never, ever die

Die Kornblume

Please don’t leave me

Or not before my time

For the colours here won't be the same
If Die Kornblume does not shine

Die Kornblume please out live my life
If you'd be so kind
