1.
My name is Hermann Braun. This is the German Eastern Front in 1943.
Front-line artillery fire.
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.
America's bomb was our wedding salute.
After a short eighteen-hour meeting, I went to the battlefield.
My wife, Maria Braun, was left alone to care for her mother, her grandpa.
Some people on the battlefield surrender
. Some people on the battlefield hope to go home
. Some people on the battlefield commit suicide
. Some people on the battlefield are mentally ill

.
My name is Hermann Braun. This is the Berlin court in 1946.
The war is over.
I escaped from a court-martial and fled back to my hometown.
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.
I would love to see her right away and tell her how much I miss her on the battlefield.
Until I saw her hugging a black officer.
The anger went to my head, and I wanted to kill the dog man and woman right away.

3.
My name is Hermann Braun. This is the Krukhov Prison in 1946.
I didn't kill people.
I went to jail in place of Maria Braun for manslaughter.
She loves me, at least more than that black Bill.
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.
Some people in prison suspect that their wives are cheating
Some people in prison expect letters from family members
Some people in prison have been lying in bed
and some people are insane

4.
My name is Herman Braun, this is Canada in 1951 farm.
I made a dirty deal.
A rich businessman named Oswald told me to leave Maria.
If I go away in his lifetime we can get his legacy.
Does she still love me?
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.
I send her a rose every month.

5.
My name is Hermann Braun, this is Germany in 1954.
Finally home.
Three years on the battlefield,
five years in prison
, three years in a foreign country
, and this time nothing will separate us.
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.

6.
Until that cigarette lit the gas.
Me and Maria Braun are united in the fire of war.


————————————————————
Men’s self-esteem
Women’s paranoia
is the sinew of men and women
is the life of Maria Braun and Herman Braun Pull the ends.

Of course, there is no winner or loser in the result of the pull.
There is no such thing as winning or losing in life.

Seeing him get up from the tall building,
seeing his banquet guests come to an
end, in the old days before the court, Yan
Shang had a few winters and summers

, did Maria Braun and Herman Braun have any love?
I don't think so.
A bombing when they get married,
a murder when they meet again, a murder when they are separated
from prison, a deal for life and death
, an explosion when they say goodbye...

All the love at first sight in the world is nothing but consensual paranoia.
What is all the long-term coexistence in the world?

Maria said: Great love requires great feeling, and of course this is also a great fact.
So her paper marriage contract became a huge rock for her to carry her whole life.
"I'm doing all this for you,
for...we..."
If, at all.

There is nothing wrong with the world, of course, but our weakness.
In the war, personnel and affairs are scattered
. After the war, the economy is depressed . Where do we have the time and the mood to know the people we love: the sleepy grandpa, the
old -time companion, the mother who taught me English, the black man who took me into business, especially the one I've been waiting for you all my life. You turned out to be so unbearable . You are worse than them . I'm really sorry.
