I have a friend who poster this on her webpage & I was just wondering what it meant. I know it's in German & I think it's lyrics to some song, but I was wondering if anyone could translae it for me into English. I would use one of those online translators, but they don't always work that well:

Ich kriege nie genug vom Leben

"Ich kenne keine Grenzen Ich will die ganze Welt Und wenn ich weiter ziehen will Gibt es nichts was mich aufhält – oh, nein"

The only one who came quite close to it was Judith.... all other translations are rubbish...

Directly translated it means:

I never get enough of the life

"I don t know any borders, I want the whole world and when I want to move on, there s nothing which holds me back.... oh no!"

More elegant and respecting the sense of what the author tries to express:

I can t get enough

"I don t recognize (feel would be okay here as well) any frontiers/borders,
I want/reach out for the (whole...in Engl, it s better to leave that out) world
and when I decide to move on, there s just nothing which is holding me back- oh no/oh gosh!"

Verdict:
On the one hand she stresses- and apparently likes- being as free as a bird can be and on the other one, she qualifies that statement by saying oh gosh, there s really nothing which could hold me back.

it is actually part of a songtext by a girl named Christina Stürmer.

she is austrian and has become quite famous in german spaking countries, during the last year or so.

Ich kriege nie genug vom leben is the title of one of her songs, and the rest is one of its verses.

Ich kriege nie genug vom Leben
I never get too much of life ( lyric: i never get tired of living)

Ich kenne keine Grenzen
I know no boundaries ( lyric: i dont know how to stop)

Ich will die ganze Welt
i want the whole world. ( lyric: i want it all)

Und wenn ich weiter ziehen will
and when i want to move on (lyric: and when it's time to leave)

Gibt es nichts was mich aufhält
there is nothing that stops me. (lyric: nothing is going to stop me)

oh, nein
oh,no.... errr probably more like a sophisticated kind of lalalaaa...

I cannot get enough of life (i.e. I really love life)

"I do not recognize any borders or frontiers - I want to own the entire world - And when I want to move on there is nothing that will stop me - Oh no!"

I never get enough of life.

I know no borders. I want the whole world. And when I want to travel further, there's nothing that's holding me back - oh no.
