The path is stubborn,
it knows the way, it has done --
this so many times.
Het pad is koppig,
Der Pfad ist störrisch,
het kent de weg, het heeft dit --
er kennt den Weg, er hat es --
al vaker gedaan.
schon öfter getan.

Dirty old dog
In the dense net of roots
lives the dog, the dirty dog
that everyone knows, but never
speaks to or looks at, a glimpse
of that dirty old dog is enough
Persephone takes him
above the ground, hidden
between her legs, he looks
at the Queen of the country
waving in a golden coach
He is a King himself
in his own world
content with his fate
content with his fame
as a dirty old dog
Life is fleeting
but human knowledge
feeds the earth, new roots
grow new rooms to
the old dog's home
the dirty old dog
dirty old dog
old dog

About green I know
little: the father is blue --
the mother yellow.
Ik weet niet zoveel
Über grün weiß ich
van groen: de moeder is geel --
nicht viel: die Mutter ist gelb --
de vader is blauw.
der Vater ist blau.
