What A Wonderful World

George David Weiss, Robert Thiele

Lyrics Translation

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

I see skies of blue
And clouds of white
The bright blessed day
The dark sacred night
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying
I love you

I hear babies cry
I watch them grow
They'll learn much more
Than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Ooh, yes

[Deutscher Songtext zu „What a Wonderful World“]

[Strophe 1]
Ich sehe grüne Bäume, rote Rosen auch
Ich sehe sie blühen für dich und mich
Und ich denke mir
Welch wunderbare Welt

[Strophe 2]
Ich sehe blaue Himmel und weiße Wolken
Die hell gesegneten Tage, die dunklen heiligen Nächte
Und ich denke mir
Welch wunderbare Welt

[Bridge]
Die Farben des Regenbogens
So hübsch am Himmel
Sind auch auf den Gesichtern
Der vorbeigehenden Menschen
Ich sehe Freunde, die sich die Hände schütteln und sagen: „Wie geht es dir?“
Sie sagen eigentlich: „Ich liebe dich“

[Strophe 3]
Ich höre Babys weinen, ich sehe sie wachsen
Sie werden viel mehr lernen
Als ich je wissen werde
Und ich denke mir
Welch wunderbare Welt
Ja, ich denke mir
Welch wunderbare Welt
