Ein Leises Lied
Nicole Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hundert Jahre alte Eichen
Mußten einer Straße weichen.
Wo einst eine Lerche sang
Hektik und Motorenklang.
Menschen voller Streß und Sorgen
Angst vor jedem neuen Morgen
Und die Kälte macht sich breit
In der neuen Wirklichkeit.

Ein leises Lied
In einer lauten Zeit.
Ein leises Lied für Dich
Für alle will ich singen.
Ein leises Lied
Es macht die Herzen weit
Doch ich hab' Angst
Es könnt unerhört verklingen.
Komm
Sing' mit mir
Vielleicht brauchst do auch heut'
Ein leises Lied in einer lauten Zeit.
Großstadtlärm und Neonlichter
Fallen grell auf die Gesichter
Kaum ein Blick zum Sternenzelt
Hier in der Computerwelt.
Ein leises Lied ...
Komm
Sing' mit mir

Vielleicht brauchst do auch heut'
Ein leises Lied in einer lauten Zeit.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Ein leises Lied" by Nicole describe the contrast between the fast-paced, noisy world of modern society and the need for moments of tranquility and reflection. The opening lines lament the loss of ancient oaks trees that were cut down to make way for a road, replacing the peaceful sounds of a singing lark with the noise of engines and the rush of daily life. People are portrayed as overwhelmed by stress and fear of an uncertain future, while a sense of coldness pervades the new reality.

However, the chorus brings a message of hope and unity, as the singer invites everyone to join her in singing a quiet song that can make the hearts of those who listen to it expand. Despite her fears that such a song might go unheard, she encourages others to find comfort and solace in a world that can be overwhelming and impersonal. The final lines emphasize the need for connection, as the singer invites the listener to join in her song, reminding them that they too might need a moment of quiet beauty to navigate the challenges of a busy and noisy world.
