[Verse 1]
All things will pass, wise man used to say:
Every bonfire will someday burn away
First there are ashes
Then there is no trace
But when the fire is kindled and aflame
Every man keeps it in his own way
Some make it smolder
And some make it blaze
[Verse 2]
When nights are long, a small fire is just good
Efforts are spared, so is the firewood
You should be wise
To limit your supplies
But once in a while there will come some fool
This silly fool will not observe the rules
And his bonfire
Will rise up to the skies
[Chorus]
Some words still can't be said aloud
Some things still wait to be allowed
The sun can still be seen above the hill
The fire still can thrill
And God preserves me still
[Verse 2]
Wise man retained, his fire for himself
Had not enough for charity and help
So he was safe
And feared no storm
You've turned the winter night to a summer day
And in a hour you fire died away
But while it burned
All people were warm
[Chorus]
Some words still can't be said aloud
Some things still wait to be allowed
The sun can still be seen above the hill
The fire still can thrill
And God preserves me still
