Ein graues Haar English translation
von Pur

I was just playing Indian
The aunt in kindergarten
I loved her so much

Then rode my moped around
First kiss, first crisis
How quickly time flies

And now I stand in front of the mirror, quarter to eight
The party will be great, my birthday
All those who like me thought of me
But what do I have to see?
Well, what? Well, what?

A gray hair
Another year goes by
Happy birthday, thank you, of course
Still a reason to celebrate


I see a gray hair
Another year goes by
Happy birthday, thank you, of course
Still a reason to celebrate
I see a gray hair

I still see myself searching
For my place in the world
Occasionally I ordered one too many drinks

I saw many come
I saw many go
Saw many fall, I mostly stayed standing

Many thousands of moments compressed into time
I wish for more of them, even more
I better understand what makes me happy
What really doesn't matter to me
Well, what? Well, what?

A gray hair
Another year goes by
Happy birthday, thank you, of course
Still a reason to celebrate
Especially with gray hair


Another year goes by
Happy birthday, thank you, of course
Still a reason to celebrate
Especially with gray hair

We celebrate every new wrinkle that was necessary
Every hair lost too early
We celebrate every good resolution, a lovely custom
And every good approach, whether bald or with a belly

Even the most beautiful body is gnawed
By the wisdom tooth of time
Truly, youth is fleeting, age grows
And celebrating that is the nicest pastime, yes

Another year goes by
Happy birthday, thank you, of course
Still a reason to celebrate
Especially with gray hair
