Der Ring, den du trägst English translation
von Nino de Angelo

And as I left,
she promised, I'll wait for you,
wherever you are,
I belong to you.

I wrote to her often,
but soon no letter came back.
But I never believed
that I would lose her.

You were my friend.
You got to know her through me.
You know how much I cared for her.

Today I'm coming home,
and I meet you in front of her door,
and at first glance
I see
you're wearing her ring.
What is there to explain?

The ring you're wearing,
I once wore it too.


The ring that you wear,
it has revealed the truth to me.

Aahh, I come home and my seat is taken.
I recognized it immediately.

By the ring that you wear.
You don't have to say anything more about that.

The ring that you wear,
it has revealed the truth to me.

Ahh, everyone can see she belongs to you now.
Because the ring you wear
is from her.

If you see her,
then tell her I'm back.
Tell her I'll call
sometime.

But don't tell her
how tired and desperate I was.
And that I cannot yet understand what happened.
I'll never understand it.

The ring you're wearing,
I once wore it too.
