Your gateway to endless inspiration
This time I'm doing "Dear theodosia" or in German "Oh Theodosia" once again, no Cast recording available yet, so I used a totally "legal" recording from YouTube

When you laugh
Du haust mich um vom ersten Tag
You punch me over from first day
You amaze me since the first day
Und ich hielte mich für so smart

And I thought I was so smart
Du fängst dich, wie dein Land, gerade an zu regen
You start you, like your country, currently on to stir
You, like your country, are starting to stir
Fangt ihr zu laufen an,
Start you to run on
When you'll start running around
passen wir auf und dann,

We'll watch out and then
Wird was wir heute in eure Wiegen legen
Will what we today in your cribs lay
What we lay into your cribs today will be
Das was euch weiter trägt, auf eurem weiten Weg
That what you continuously carry on your long way
That which will carry you further on your long way
Oh du haust uns alle um
Oh you hit us all over
Oh you will blow us all away
Schon bald, schon bald.
Already soon, already soon.
Soon already, soon already.
Oh du haust uns alle um
Oh you hit us all over
Oh you will blow us all away
Schon bald, schon bald
Already soon, already soon
Soon already, soon already
