I do not speak German, but my son is taking it in school.
Honestly, though, I did not have a need to understand the lyrics to have an emotional reaction to the music. I listened twice then thought to call in my son, who is still too green to translate the whole thing. He agreed; very moving.
Thank you.
I have now found a version with someone's interpretation of the lyrics in English. While I am certain the translation is rough, the delivery of this music by this artist still impresses.
A quick further search and I am reveling in their metal sound. Not an average band at all.
Short exposure, here, but I like what I hear.
