"You recently announced that you
approaching sixty,
suddenly you are aware that
that no one here fails to recognize this.
In good shape and strong-willed,
confident to the core,
someone who runs around the house every day,
always with a new idea burning under his fingernails.
You're not thinking about rest yet,
your little house still needs a lot of work
until it's finally finished,
you'll definitely be retired.
Just make sure you stay healthy,
and that you are never tormented by pain in your daily life,
so that you can fulfill your wishes
and dance around your little house for a long time to come.
There's enough wind blowing around your nose
to make you feel a little dizzy
when you walk through the forest
and sort out your thoughts there.
May happiness always be yours,
you are our treasure of gold,
a person who can be relied upon,
who always stands behind his family."
by Ute Nathow
