Translation of Der Teufel Und Der Junge Mann from German to English
Ha ha ha ha

Listen to the story
Of the devil and the young man
Once upon a time there was a young man
Who unfortunately lived quite wildly
The devil came to take him
There were many reasons for this
The young man knew well
The devil enjoys betting
So he said, I know a riddle
What is it?
You can't hear it
You can't see it, it often hurts
And yet it's beautiful, it's not wine
But it goes into the blood and it does
It feels so good
It's not gold but it makes you rich
A heart of iron becomes soft from it
It's not fire but it burns
Tell me what it's called
The devil began to guess
(I think it could be a UFO, Ah)
(A night ghost, Uh)
(A Zipfelbub'?, Oh)
But he always heard a no
And finally he said in anger
I've had enough of this guessing game
If you tell me the solution now
I'll set you free
You can't hear it
You can't see it, it often hurts
And yet it's beautiful, it's not wine
But it goes into the blood and it does
It feels so good
It's not gold but it makes you rich
A heart of iron becomes soft from it
It's not fire but it burns
Tell me what it's called
It's old and always new
It captures you and sets you free
It's something the devil doesn't know
Something called love
You can't hear it
You can't see it, it often hurts
And yet it's beautiful, it's not wine
But it goes into the blood and it does
It feels so good
It's not gold but it makes you rich
A heart of iron becomes soft from it
It's not fire but it burns
That which is called love
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
