Anuschka English translation
von Udo Jürgens

I saw her at the dance in the village
And almost sank to my knees
She was as beautiful as milk and blood
What I also promised her, during the dance and after
in the moonlight
She said: Love is no good today

Anuschka, tell me, how can you be like that?
Who's telling you that?
You just lack a little courage!
Anuschka, the whole world needs love
And I've discovered
It's always good for me!

Hey!
I admit, the tactic wasn't new
I drove her into the hay
She rested in my arms
In the middle of it, in the first shy kiss
It was like a cold shower
She said: Love is no good today


Anuschka, tell me, how can you be like that?
Who's telling you that?
You just lack a little courage!
Anuschka, the whole world needs love
And I've discovered
It's always good for me!
Hey!

Doswidanja, let's leave it, Anuschka
But I couldn't forget her.

Hey!
Then I tried alcohol.
She was so sophisticated.
And only drank a thimble.
When I finally got drunk,
I saw two Anuschkas.
They said: Love's no good today.

Anuschka, tell me, how can you be like that?
Who's telling you that?
You just need a little courage!
Anuschka, the whole world needs love
And I've discovered
It's always good for me!

Hey!
Then, weeks later, I arrived in town.
She immediately waved to me.
And called out to me in high spirits: Come into the house, a dream will come true today!


Well, which one was clear to me?
All good things come to those who wait!

Inside stood a bear of a man. He offered me vodka. And said: My friend, I'm sorry, but Anuschka will be my bride today. At first I looked stupid. But then I absolutely understood. Love is no good today. Hey!
