Conrad73: Marlene Dietrich, Ich Hab` Noch Einen Koffer In Berlin.

so you didn't do like Marlene,you carried all your Luggage home,I suppose?

“Ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin”
(“I Still Have a Suitcase in Berlin”)

Lyrics: Aldo von Pinelli
Music: Ralph Maria Siegel

Literal prose English translation by Hyde Flippo

1
It’s wonderful in Paris on the Rue Madeleine
It's nice to walk through the city in Rome in May
Or a quiet summer night with wine in Vienna.
But I'm still attached, even if you laugh, to Berlin today:

Refrain:
I still have a suitcase in Berlin..........
That's why I have to go there sometime soon.
The joys of days gone by
Are all still in my little suitcase.

I still have a suitcase in Berlin
It stays there, too, and that makes sense.
In this way it's worth a trip,
Because whenever I'm homesick, then I go back.

2
Lunapark and the wave pool, a little bear at the Zoo,
Swimming at Wannsee (lake) with the water wheel, bright and happy days.
Werder, when the trees are in bloom, Sanssouci park.
Man, Berlin was really nice. I'll never forget it:

Refrain: I have...


I wasn't impressed with the airport operations there either. I can't remember if they used an aerobridge on arriving Berlin, but on departing for Kiev in 2005, they bussed us to the plane waiting on the Apron.

We had to use a portable steep stairs to board the plane carrying our luggage. Not impressive. Maybe I arrived late for departure? dunno

Too many countries to see that one life will not be enough.

I would love to see Peru but maybe I will not be able to do it $$ because of an important family move at the beginning of next year to an Asian country. Not decided yet but very probably.

However, this year I will go to see some of the Maya world south of Mexico and a couple of countries in Central America.

Bush tucker land, Broom in oz,


Ise of Capri,


Ice burger land where the penguins and polar bears live,

Canada. I the Rocky Mountains,

Drive over sanfransisco bridge and cycle down the hills,

Have tea in the Japan and sushi,

Haggis in the shetlandislands,

Guiness on the aaran islands,


Have coffee in Mayfair London,

Back to Athens to see the gods,lol,

Madrid market on Saturday afternoon,

Swim in the coral reef in,


Caribean for a cocktail,

Africa for the safari,

that's it just for now,

rolling on the floor laughing

I would love to go to Jordan to see Petra. Also, Ephesus but, sadly, its in Turkey and it'll be a long time before I spend my hard-earned money going there!

I also wish I could visit the Terracotta Warriors in China, Australia and NZ but I can't face a flight that long.

I'll just have to stick to Italy, Cyprus, Egypt and Canada. smitten
