The Joyful Singers: Texte

Another Life

© Text: Hans Henschel, Musik: Jürgen Beyer, 2012.
    Deutsche Übertragung

chorus 1: Another Life, another life -
a caterpillar's sleeping still.
Another Life, another life -
it doesn't care about the Maker's will.

Another Life, another life -
a caterpillar's sleeping still.
It doesn't know about tomorrow,
about another skin to fill.
verse 1: Should I restrain my hope and longing
within my days and designation?
And keep my mind on what I be
and on my present situation?
repeat chorus 1
verse 2: Should I queue up at my desires
and seize the opportunities?
Should I break out of limitations
regardless of the dues and fees?
chorus 2: Another Life, another life -
a caterpillar's sleeping still.
It doesn't know about tomorrow,
about another skin to fill.

Another Life, another life -
just resurrected, tumbling high,
in unawareness of the past
is taking wings a butterfly.
bridge: If truth I seek and everyday I strive
will you reward me with another life?
If I keep track and live beyond the spot
will you retract from me the life I've got?
coda: Another life, another life - hmm,
Another life, another life - hmm.
Another life, another life - hmm,
His might turns death to living - a miracle to catch my eye.
