Marlene Dietrich did not record any version of the song "Lili Marleen" until the 1960s, coincident with her part in the film Judgment at Nuremberg, but long before that she translated the original German lyrics of the long-lived song into English herself, and performed that version in concert. Below is a scan of her original translation, as she herself typed it out at the end of World War II while on tour in North Africa entertaining Allied troops.
