Testo e traduzione
Verse
Du hältst mein Ticket, ich halte deins.
You hold my ticket, I hold yours.
Der Hund liegt in seinem offenen Cellokasten.
The dog lies in his open cello case.
Mein Schal polstert seine müden alten Knochen.
My scarf cushions his tired old bones.
Unsere beiden Koffer stehen neben der Waage.
Our two suitcases stand beside the scale.
Chorus
Der Cellokasten fährt heute nicht nach Westen.
The cello case will not go west today.
Seine graue Schnauze ruht auf meinem Ärmel.
His grey muzzle rests on my sleeve.
Du streichst ihm einmal hinter beide Ohren.
You stroke him once behind both ears.
Dann faltest du mein Ticket in vier Teile.
Then you fold my ticket into four pieces.
Verse
Die Reise wäre zu viel für seine Kräfte.
The journey would be too much for his strength.
Wir hatten diesen Abschied anders geplant.
We had planned this farewell differently.
Deine neue Stelle wartet jenseits dieses Ozeans.
Your new job waits beyond this ocean.
Ich nehme meinen Koffer wieder von der Waage.
I take my suitcase off the scale again.
Chorus
Der Cellokasten fährt heute nicht nach Westen.
The cello case will not go west today.
Seine graue Schnauze ruht auf meinem Ärmel.
His grey muzzle rests on my sleeve.
Du streichst ihm einmal hinter beide Ohren.
You stroke him once behind both ears.
Dann faltest du mein Ticket in vier Teile.
Then you fold my ticket into four pieces.
Bridge
Du fragst nach unserer ersten gemeinsamen Nacht.
You ask about our first night together.
Damals schlief der Welpe zwischen unseren Schuhen.
The puppy slept between our shoes back then.
Ich sage, dass ich seinen Platz noch freihalte.
I say I still keep his place clear.
Du sagst, ich soll deinen ebenfalls behalten.
You say I should keep yours clear too.
Chorus
Der Cellokasten fährt heute nicht nach Westen.
The cello case will not go west today.
Seine graue Schnauze ruht auf meinem Ärmel.
His grey muzzle rests on my sleeve.
Du streichst ihm einmal hinter beide Ohren.
You stroke him once behind both ears.
Dann faltest du mein Ticket in vier Teile.
Then you fold my ticket into four pieces.
