[Verse 1] Was the summer of ’41, in the shadow of the fight, In Auschwitz the darkness had conquered the light. Ten men were chosen, condemned there to die, crying for mercy — they didn´t know why. [Verse 2] One stepped from the line and he lifted his hand. “I’ll take his place”, was his simple command. The captain accepted with scorn and with pride And I walked away, while he walked inside. [Prechorus] [Chorus] A man named Kolbe, - he died for me. He gave his life, so that I could go free. A man named Kolbe - an angel to me, A light in the darkness - ever will be. [Verse 3] Down in the bunker, his prayers still remain, Where hope seemed to vanish, his songs broke the chains. No cries, no despair — just faith through the pain, A sacrifice shining forever in flame. [Bridge] And still to this day, his courage is shown, A witness of love, in the darkest unknown. A brother, a father, who stood till the end, He gave us a story the world can defend. [Prechorus] [Final Chorus] A man named Kolbe, - he died for me. He gave his life, so that I could go free. A man named Kolbe - an angel to me, A light in the darkness - ever will be.
