- Chorus:
- Bei mir bist du Schon, please
let me explain,
- "Bei mir bist du Schon,"
means you are grand!
- Bei mir bist du Schon, again
I'll explain,
- It means you're the fairest
in the land!
- I could say, "Bella!
Bella!" even say "Wunderbar!"
- Each language only helps
me tell you how grand you are.
- I've tried to explain, bei
mir bist du Schon,
- So, kiss me, and say you
understand.
