Reise nach Jerusalem – Kudüs'e seyahat

Journey to Jerusalem – Journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
  
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Hi, hi, come on, let's all go to Jerusalem together
  
Schon als ich ein Kind war, spielten wir dieses Spiel Already when I was a child, we played this game
Reise nach Jerusalem, einer nur kommt ans Ziel Musical chairs, only one reaches the goal
Denn wenn der Rhythmus plötzlich schweigt Then when the rhythm suddenly stops
Heisst das, es ist vorbei, kein Platz mehr frei That means it is over, there is no more free space
  
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Hi, hi, come on, let's all go to Jerusalem together
  
Wir haben einen Traum, der nie die Kraft verliert We've got a dream that never loses its power
Leben ist eine Reise, die nach morgen führt Life is a journey that leads to tomorrow
Frieden ist mehr als nur ein Spiel bei dem nur einer gewinnt Peace is more than just a game where only one can win
Weil wir Menschen sind Because we're human
  
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Hi, hi, come on, let's all go to Jerusalem together
  
We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land
Barış olsun diye yürüyelim el ele I wish there were peace and everybody would go hand in hand
We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land
Dost kalırsak eğer yarışamaya değer There would be friendship and no quarrels
And if we stay friends, a dream will live forever And if we stay friends, a dream will live forever
Ve bir zaman, hedefe vardığımız an And all this will happen in the future
Irgendwann kommen wir an Some day we'll arrive
  
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Hi, hi, come on, let's all go to Jerusalem together
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Hi, hi, come on, let's all go to Jerusalem together
  
Selâm, selâm, hand in hand on the journey to Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hand in hand on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, lasst uns gehn auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Hi, hi, let's go on the journey to Jerusalem
