A quotation from Goethe, Johann von

But heard are the voices,
Heard are the sages,
The Worlds and the Ages:
“Choose well: your choice is
Brief, and yet endless.”

[Doch rufen von drüben
Die Stimmen der Geister
Die Stimmen der Meister:
Bersäumt nich zu üben
Die Kräfte des Guten.]

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) German poet, statesman, scientist
“Symbolum” (1815) [tr. Carlyle (1843)]

A very cool song and video. Not understanding the language I was not expecting to enjoy it so much, but I watched and enjoyed the music and animation. Then I translated (I hope roughly correctly) and found a very deep song about relationships, commitment, time, beer…

I will share what I could re-create using the lyrics on the YouTube description. Something like this.
Thanks for this, @Hans Wolters

Racoon - Het Is Al Laat Toch (It Is Getting Late, Anyway)

What an idea, what a plan,
oh damn man Why am I so nervous
Go in, sit down anyway and have a drink then
Maybe she’ll like you
And you her, so each other,
and you can laugh a little there

There’s always a choice
She looks at you, the atmosphere suddenly becomes so serious
It’s getting late anyway
It’s getting late anyway
What are we still doing here It’s getting late anyway It’s getting late anyway Do you still want your beer
Come on let’s go to my house

I don’t get it, it was so beautiful, not normal anymore How time can break so quickly My whole life is up and running, looking for a dream story And I search for it and I feel bad
Did I lose something, or did I leave something somewhere? Tell me where We continue to grow, as far as you can call it that
We are growing further apart

But now the door has closed, and your presence disappears My world only gets smaller, soulful only by stubbornness
What we forget when cursing, on the grind of so many years Is that we whine, that we whine, but in the same language

We grow by, as far as you can call it We grow further apart It’s getting late It’s getting late What are we still doing here It’s getting late It’s it’s too late You stay here Then I’ll go home

But now the door has closed, and your presence disappears

My world only shrinks, soulful only through stubbornness What we forget in the cursing, in the grind of so many years Is that we whine, that we whine, but in the same language

It’s already late anyway It’s already late anyway What are we still doing here Come let’s go to my house It’s getting late anyway It’s getting late anyway What are we still doing here It’s getting late anyway It’s getting late anyway So drink your beer And then we’ll go to our house.
