Der Mond Steht Auf

This is my translation to German of the song The Moon Rises, by Ponyphonic. I had to make some minor changes to the lyrics in order to keep the structure of the piece (syllable counts per line, most of the rhymes) intact; the three-column layout is there for easy comparison.

In the left column are the original lyrics and in the center is my German version. The right column is the literal word-for-word back translation to English, included so that one can see exactly where the differences are, and so that ~Aikolee can learn some German.

As always, if you find that I've made some grammatical error, please let me know. I am very much still learning German, and fixing my mistakes can only help me get better.
