I'd like to present lyrics of one of the most beautiful songs by Kraftwerk.

Spiegelsaal
^^^^^^^^^^^

Der junge Mann betrat eines Tages in ein Spiegelsaal
Und entdeckte eine Spiegelung seines selbst

Sogar die groessten Stars
Entdecken sich selbst im Spiegelglas

Manchmal sah er sein wirkliches Gesicht
Und manchmal einen Fremde, den kannte er nicht

Sogar die groessten Stars
Finden ihr Gesicht im Spiegelglas

Manchmal verliebte er sich in seinem Spiegelbild
Und dann wiederum sah er ein Wahnbild

Sogar die groessten Stars
Moegen sich nicht im Spiegelglas

Er schuf die Person die er sein wollte
Und wechselte in einer neunen Persoenlichkeit

Sogar die groessten Stars
Veraendern sich selbst im Spiegelglas

Der Kunstler lebt
Mit dem Echo seines selbst

Sogar die groessten Stars
Leben ihr Leben im Spiegelglas

Sogar die groessten Stars
Machen sich zurecht im Spiegelglas

Sogar die groessten Stars
Leben ihr Leben im Spiegelglas

The Hall of Mirrors
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
The young man stepped into the hall of mirrors
Where he discovered a reflection of himself
Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars discover themselves in the looking glass

Sometimes he saw his real face
And sometimes a stranger at his place
Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars find their face in the looking glass

He fell in love with the image of himself
and suddenly the picture was distorted
Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars dislike themselves in the looking glass

He made up the person he wanted to be
And changed into a new personality
Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars change themselves in the looking glass

The artist is living in the mirror
With the echoes of himself
Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars fix their face in the looking glass

Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass
Even the greatest stars live their lives in the looking glass

Enjoy.
