Music and lyrics of Erblast were very similar to another famous project of Henke - Goethes Erben, but Erblast was for the artist an opportunity for trying singing e.g. English language.

Erblast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
die lieben sich
eins allein
verlaß mich nicht
Gelebte Zeit in Zweisamkeit
allein gelebt bleibt Einsamkeit
Gelebte Zeit in Zweisamkeit
verlaß mich nicht
ich brauche dich
ich brauche dich
allein zurück
verfolg ich dich
Zweiglücksamkeit
ich wart auf dich
Gelebte Zeit in Zweisamkeit
allein gelebt bleibt Einsamkeit
Gelebte Zeit in Zweisamkeit
allein gelebt bleibt Einsamkeit
Zweiglückzweigemeinsamkeit
Zweiglückzweigemeinsamkeit
die brauche ich
The lyrics of the song "Zweiglücksamkeit" by Erblast focus on the idea of two people being in love and needing each other. The first two lines of the song, "Zwei sind eins, die lieben sich" (Two are one, who love each other) affirm the importance of unity in a romantic relationship. The following lyrics, "Eins allein, verlaß mich nicht" (One alone, don't leave me) express the fear of being alone and the necessity of having a partner to share life with.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that shared experiences and time together are the key to happiness, whereas being alone leads to loneliness. The line "Zweiglücksamkeit, ich wart auf dich" (Dual happiness, I wait for you) further reinforces the idea of the couple as a unit.
The title of the song, "Zweiglücksamkeit", is a play on words, combining the German words "Zweig" (meaning "branch") and "Glück" (meaning "happiness"). The term "Zweiglücksamkeit" does not exist in standard German, but the compound term suggests a happiness that comes from a shared life path with another person.
