About Ein Bißchen Frieden

"Ein bißchen Frieden" ("A Little Peace" in English) is a song in German, written by prolific German Eurovision-writing duo Ralph Siegel (music) and Bernd Meinunger (lyrics) for the Eurovision Song Contest 1982, held in Harrogate, England. It was performed by 17-year-old German high-school student Nicole, resulting in Germany's first win at the Eurovision Song Contest by a record margin of 61 points, setting a new record for the largest winning margin that lasted until the Eurovision Song Contest 1997.

Wie eine Blume am Winter beginnt
So wie ein Feuer im eisigen Wind
Wie eine Puppe die keiner mehr mag
Fühl ich mich am manchem Tag
Dann seh ich die Wolken die über uns sind
Und höre die Schreie der Vögel im Wind
Ich singe als Antwort im Dunkel mein Lied
Und hoffe dass nichts geschieht

Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Sonne
Für diese Erde auf der wir wohnen
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Freude
Ein bisschen Wärme das wünsch' ich mir
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Träumen
Und dass die Menschen nicht so oft weinen
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Liebe
Dass ich die Hoffnung nie mehr verlier' 

Ich weiß meine Lieder die ändern nich' viel
Ich bin nur ein Mädchen das sagt was es fühlt
Allein bin ich hilflos ein Vogel im Wind
Der spürt dass der Storm beginnt

Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Sonne
Für diese Erde auf der wir wohnen
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Freude
Ein bisschen Wärme das wünsch ich mir
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Träumen
Und dass die Menchen nicht so oft weinen
Ein bisschen Frieden ein bisschen Liebe
Dass ich die Hoffnung nie mehr verlier 

Sing mit mir ein kleines Lied
Dass die Welt im Frieden lebt
