Myself First
Sometimes, it seems love isn't the answer
Even so, I get annoyed being alone
What would I do with the search for love
If I myself am not even happy?
It's better to be on my own
So that I can get to know myself better
Love first, for myself
It's better to be on my own
So that I don't blame my sadness on someone else
I just need
To put myself first
Sometimes, I know sadness will come knocking
But I need to stay strong
What would I do with giving love
If I wouldn't be able to take care of myself?
It's better to be on my own
So that I can get to know myself better
Love first, for myself
It's better to be on my own
So that I don't blame my sadness on someone else
I just need
(To put myself first)
How can I love
If I can't love myself?
Now, tomorrow, I'll just get tired...
It's better to be on my own
So that I can get to know myself better
Love first, for myself
It's better to be on my own
So that I don't blame my sadness on someone else
I just need
To put myself first
Myself first

Right Here
Versions: #2
Here sounds a curse in front of the cross
Here, thousands of faces get drowned in blood
Right here, ninety-nine out of a hundred
Sing in praise of flowers and love, a beautiful love
Here dance women in the mirrored space
With tons of heavy defect-concealing make-up on
Here, bared teeth grin for a smile
Right here, everyone's a hostage
To their own sect - a weird sect
Right here are sell-out and evil, doubt and fear
Here, many had luck to leave blood and ashes behind them
Here, everyone is entitled to a wooden suit in the ground
Here encounters one jester's face to a hundred of gloomy ones
It's only height that saves from a flock of wild birds
Right here comes in and out every breath from a tightly fixed noose.
Here, childhood quickly shifts to maturity
And green years are just a fleeting moment
Right here, every worker slaves for a minister
Who, in his turn, is a slave to somebody's else
Who is clawed by another.
Right here are sell-out and evil, doubt and fear
Here, many had luck to leave blood and ashes behind them
Here, everyone is entitled to a wooden suit in the ground
Here encounters one jester's face to a hundred gloomy ones
It's only height that saves from a flock of wild birds
Right here comes in and out every breath from a tightly fixed noose.

Svetlana and Maiakovski
[Verse 1]
And I'd really like to show you that no days look alike
Every night has its own stories of love and blood
Her little face in the mirror has some sadness to spare
She'll go and steal their book of spells, the rainbows and angels
It's raining tears, and tears, lost souls up in the sky
And this lady has torturous looks for the most vicious ones
Welcome to the flames of Pigalle, the dark nights
The Romantic City's hidden face
She's dancing like Salome in the Bible, making everyone dizzy
I look into her drunk eyes, Paris is a celebration
Svetlanna gets in touch with her friends, lies about her life on the internet
The princess of túndra is just whore in Paris
She hides to cry, while drying her tears she understood
That she was drying up her dreams, that here, it's like the cold war without a truce
In the early morning, back to the attic room
With a smell that haunts the deads, and the pimp knocking's coldness
[Chorus]
And when you sleep
Can you feel the north wind ?
I know it's cold outside
But answer me, are you dead ?
Are you dead ?
Were you scared to death because of them
The sun is rising, you are done
And you bite, and you bite others
[Verse 2]
She shaves her head for her feminist side
Guys don't see nothing on the Kama river
She was irresistible
Depression scratched her body that she exhibits on the sidewalk
Her eyes soaked in alcohol tell us her nightmares
But anyway, who gives a damn if the Earth isn't going in circles ?
Are we even lending a hand ? Anyway
Who gives a damn about helping their neighbor
Svetlanna's solitary and it's best like this
It's all fire inside her head when she paces
She thinks of yesterday, of her parents she arguably won't ever see again
Of the children of the village that would run after her
At half past midnight she's working, despite the wind and snow
The polluted sky keeps its stars, for it she owns no priviledge
She re-invents herself being a rockstar, or a collection's lost love
Until some bastard of a client, will act discourteous again
Obliged to fake, that she likes the stranger laying down in her bed
Her mind recites, some Maiakovski poems
You see, in fact there are different ways to escape
Him, fucking, and her, thinking
Her frozen body and her icy breath
[Chorus]
And when you sleep
Can you feel the north wind ?
I know it's cold outside
But answer me, are you dead ?
Are you dead ?
Were you scared to death because of them
The sun is rising, you are done
And you bite, and you bite others

May
The feat is not where everyone expected it.
Faith is not where words are sweeter.
Gold orders and medals are seduced us,
Earthly rights have tired us.
Wanna become what I haven't been.
I don't wanna be who I've become.
But the boundless, hospitable sky
Is already barking at us with its grin.
The one who moves will master every road.
But what about those who are stuck in the belt.
Look how the one who serving looks at you haughty,
Flaunt its benefactor.
Don't be afraid to stay completely alone,
It's more terrible to stay among strangers.
Each of us risks being cruel,
Each of us is a psycho
Everything was divided into 'became' and 'was',
Everything was divided into 'was' and 'is.'
It seems to be half in the grave,
And we still expect the miracles.
Tibor from QS-FB

Black Rain Of Hiroshima
One more second and it's all over.
There's nothing more to believe for us.
Look, how much pain carries with it
The 'Little Boy' filled with uranium.
One more moment and already don't care
Who we were and who would we become.
The black rain will wash away like a spot,
All traces of our tears and sorrows.
Look, how greedily the fire swallows
Bodies of quite young creatures.
Everywhere is hearing a childish groan
From ruined and charred buildings.
Everywhere is hearing a childish cry,
Getting quieter and quieter.
Flying in the sky a steel executioner
Won't give them the opportunity to survive.
We need to save ourselves as soon as possible.
Leaving those who is beyond help.
Look, mothers' eyes are full of blood,
From powerlessness to do something.
A fire of candles is not fade,
Memories are unbearable.
Squeeze stronger the memory in your palm
And remember the pain of Hiroshima.

Thank God
On nights like this
Everything seems to be the same
The mind goes traveling
And I follow it even though I don't want
On nights like this
Thank God you're next to me
So you wake up in my dreams
And I can forget at once
All I can't (do)
Thank God you're here
On nights like this
So I can look at you and hold on
Thank God you're here
On nights like this
So I can see you and hold on
On nights like this
I make thoughts that I don't have to
But the heart topples them
When I see you
On nights like this
Thank God you're next to me
So you wake up in my dreams
And I can forget at once
All I can't (do)
Thank God you're here
On nights like this
So I can look at you and hold on
Thank God you're here
On nights like this
So I can see you and hold on

Valaam
Bandages and cotton wool
Are cover up the light
In window of hospital room
Where many have lost all hopes
You're so alone
Chained to your dirty beds
We were cruel
And just have had enough of you
We're so tired
Of all your caprices and needs
You gave us such a hard time
Your path was alien to us
There's no place for your misfortune
On our streets
And the years will sweep away every trace
Towards your exploits
In longing and wandering
You believed in tomorrow
But our endeavors
Turn you into the shadows for long ago
It wasn't easy for you
To search for the meaning of life and the essence
An abandoned island
Is your last shelter now
2018.04.23.
The Years
The last lights of the city, are still lit right now
All the sounds of the street, are suddenly getting quiet
My hopes are being lost, with a dim sound
My soul and this street, empty and hardened
Only night is ahead of me, with darkness in my soul
You left without me, and became a stranger to me
In my dreams you're not far away, I'm asleep in your arms
I wake up to the same rain, and a wet street
CHORUS:
The years pass and go by
But my hopes still remain
My tears have so long been a stranger to me
Whether they build for me or betray me
But for me they will always be
CHORUS:
The years pass and go by
But my hopes still remain with me
My tears have so long been a stranger to me
Whether they build for me or betray me
But for me they will always be
expensive, clean, the years
The dark city embrasses me, the night in darkness
Dawn is approaching, but I am alone
The road is very long, and I am alone
Without you the whole city has become small
CHORUS:
The years pass and go by
But my hopes still remain
My tears have so long been a stranger to me
Whether they build for me or betray me
But for me they will always be
CHORUS:
The years pass and go by
But my hopes still remain with me
My tears have so long been a stranger to me
Whether they build for me or betray me
But for me they will always be
expensive, clean, the years

Where are you
The faces are blurred and obliterated,
Only the names left in memory.
Honors spilling over the ground.
The heavens are breathe
With light souls of the fallen.
The voices lose in silence.
(Chorus:)
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Where are you? Where are you?
Candles and black tears
For those who was just starting his life.
A war choked with scarlet blood.
To a warm and peaceful heaven,
By firm and confident order,
Are setting off the battalions of heroes.
(Chorus:)
Where are you? Where are you? Where are you?
Where are you? Where are you?

Probably
Probably tomorrow will be spring.
I know, the calendar will not deceive.
How much it will bring,
The one who understands it?
Not everyone can honestly love.
This gift endued not many.
A moment can stop all,
Leaving a faint trace on a way.
It's so hard to stay alive,
Trying to be standing in this crowding.
Probably become someone else,
There's no chance in this life way.

My Land
Time is circling over the land.
Pressing and strangling with a tight noose.
To saddens and cares,
But will not coming back.
And on us, from the four sides,
Grining jaws the enemy waves.
Waiting when we'll relax,
To will handle us.
And around there are dark deeds,
Greed of hands, evil thoughts,
Envy of eyes, love of money,
Nasty phrases, foul language.
All the land is pain bound,
Robbed from the inside,
Managed by promises,
And envenomed by its own poison.
But the land, breathing with a fight,
Will endure everything, stand things.
Bends its back, never breaks,
Nobody will get it.

Although the Prophet isn't with us anymore
As it was said by Muhammad (Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa-Sallam):
'All my followers will enter the Jannah,
Except those who refuse entering the Jannah.'
'Who will be the ones which will refuse it?',
- The Sahabah asked.
'Whoever follows my Sunnah will enter Paradise,
And whoever doesn't follow my Sunnah is the one who refuses (to enter the Jannah).',
He replied.
Chorus (2x):
Although the Peygamber isn't with us anymore,
His Sunnah will be with us forever.
All your deeds we will practice,
Your Sunnah, we will revive.
O Muhammad, your Ummah is breaking apart,
As much as you are not with us.
They are fighting against your words,
Making up something which isn't Islamic.
Chorus (2x).
Those which know your Sunnah,
Those which know the Haqq.
Your As-Sahabah were truthful,
But since a long time they've been under the earth...
Chorus (2x).
Now we are striving to live,
Your Sunnah, to practice,
For we know that only through you,
We can achieve the Jannah.
Chorus (2x).
As said by Muhammad (Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa-Sallam):
'The Ummah of Jews will split into 71 sects,
The Ummah of Christians will split into 72 sects,
And my Ummah will split into 73 sects,
72 of which will be in jahannam, and one in Jannah.'
The Sahabah asked:
'Who are they, ya Rasul Allah?'
He said: 'Ahli Sunnah wa-l-Jama'ah!
Those which will follow, and live my Sunnah,
in the Jama'ah.'

March Of The Free
Be equal! Attention!
One after another the ranks of the submissive,
Obediently swallowing the orders of high-livers.
Affront. Offensively.
But you need to be silent and to be quiet.
Then there is an opportunity to climb a little higher.
Kneel. Distastefully.
But we're pressed by a political height,
And straight our back is not so easy.
The last not in sight.
Here in the spotlight only those who ahead of us,
And everyone else let take care of themselves.
(Chorus:)
March of the free. Fire in souls, leprosy on faces.
March of the free. Cretin on the right, freak on the left.
March of the free. Who fell out a line was trampled and cast-off.
March of the free. Will is clamped, character is worn.
A stroke of a lash.
Bloody scars on the bare back.
Double punishment for dashing rebels.
The threat by death.
For those who don't honor the just laws,
Opened doors of the prison yards.
Tied with rope.
Not a step to the left or a step to the right.
Of those who fell down make crossings.
Reward with silver.
The caring for the poor, they are like a burden.
They don't need much, won't handle with load.
(Chorus:)
March of the free. Fire in souls, leprosy on faces.
March of the free. Souls burn in impulses of ecstasy.
March of the free. There are traces of horseshoes on the backs of the fallen.
March of the free. The will is clamped in tight fetters.

The Priest And The Tramp
Destiny at the crossroads of two ways
Brought together the priest and the tramp
The ecclesiastic by looking out from under hoary eyebrows
Had slightly embarrassed by the situation
'How dare you block my way?' -
He haughtily said to the wanderer.
'You hasn't brought an ounce of use to the world,
And I serve God my whole life!'
'Temper your ardor, churchman.
There is no special need to teach me.
You'd better stop yelling and screaming,
And generously give me a coin.'
'I gave alms to many in this life,
But I'm not going to put in your palm, wayfarer.
Your appearance tells me you're a libertine
And gave your soul to the Devil.
You've never honored God's rules.
Your glance inspires a fear to people.
You ravaged and robbed a lot of people.
All this I've read in your eyes.'
'There is no need to anger on the cross,
All your dogmas turned to ashes.
And trust me, you aren't such a saint already,
My faithful brother in Christ'
'How dare you call me a brother?
Your sins will be surprised even the Gomorrah!
I bringing the peace and you sowing
The dawning of anger, fear and pestilence.'
'Even though I robbed a lot,
Even though I took the alms to stay well-fed,
But I only deprive them of wealth,
And you sell them faith for money!'

Advice to the one who follows
Each one day is a small step
On the way to the intended aim
And I'm feel sorry about every day
That was spent in vain in bed
Entertainment is the right thing
And no need to shun them
But entertainment is the charms of the life
And it has to be earned
In the harsh world of musty words
Among bastards and scums
Among cretins and assholes
It's so great to have friends
Everything around makes us fight
Forcing us to struggle desperately
But in the fight the main thing is do not crap
Even the idiot can swing the hands
It's no possibilities to make a nice for oneself
The means do not allow to buy a lot
But do not deny yourself the incredible
And spend all that can be given back
Everyone has something to be proud of
Everyone can be swindled
And if you happened to be born yesterday
Today be ready to die
You can be whatever you'll want
Similar to others or just different
You can live the way you want
But don't disturb the others
You shouldn't fall into thinking
And clog your head with nonsense
I'm not trying to teach
This is just the advice to the one who follows
2018.04.13.
I don't want
Versions: #2
I don't wanna be alive
Just in order to survive
Sinking ever lower
And turn into smoke
I don't wanna sing anymore
For the ones who not hear
Those who not wait and not look for
And are only used to regret
I don't wanna be different
I wanna be just like before
To obey the hope
And be loved by the fate
I don't wanna wait any longer
I am tired of the anticipations
All earthly suffering
I am prepared to accept
I don't wanna go anymore
With the flow or against
Bothered everyone
Living freely
I don't wanna talk
Someone who's not gonna hear anyway
Someone whose sky is under the roof
I can't talk some sense into him
I don't wanna know in advance
About what's gonna happening tomorrow
About what's lie and what's truth
I do no longer care
I don't wanna explain
What's song about
And repeat two hundreds times
Who should will understand

Ne hagyj el
Nélküled magam vagyok a világban
A szívem csak téged kíván
Hang nélkül szenved a lelkem
Nézz csak rá
Nézz csak rá
Nézz csak rá
Arra kérlek ne hagyj el
Ne hagyj el, hagyj el, hagyj el
Maradj a karjaimban
A karjaimban maradj, maradj
Minden szerelmemet neked adom
Ha itt maradsz velem

Friends from Another Place
Don't you disrespect me, little man!
No one can erase me, or break me
My world has rules
And friends from another place
(Friends from another place)
That's just an echo, gentlemen
A little something we have here in Louisiana
Just a cheap trick, I wouldn't worry
Let your bodies rest, let your heads detach
If you'll relax I could do for you, anything I desire
The future is clear to me, I'll change it if you want
If I'll look into your souls
[You do have a soul, don't you, Lawrence?]
Dreams will come true
I got voodoo
I got hoodoo
I got many things to tell
And friends in another place
(Friends in another place)
The card, the card, the card will tell
The past, the present, and of course the future
Pick three - from my hand
Come and let's take a peek at the future
Now, he traveled just to see me
You can tell he's sensitive and royal
[I'm a royal myself on my mother's side]
He lives with style, but his pocket lacks
We need to find him a woman whose father's a millionaire
[Your mom and dad aren't supporting you, playboy?]
[Eh... too bad, but true]
[Now you wanna get hitched, but hitching ties you down.
You wanna be free, hop from place to place.
But you know, freedom costs.]
Greens, greens are missing
It's all in the cards, a sweet and green future
I don't have too much time for the little man
You've been controlled you whole life
Those who control you are your mother, your sister and your brother as well
And if you'll get married then - your wife will control you right away
In the card you can clearly see a future
Where you are the man you always dreamed of being
[Let's shake hands. Come on boys.
Won't you shake - a poor sinner's hand? Yes...!]
Now's the moment!
(Now's the moment)
Now's THE moment!
Super transformation
(Super transformation)

Transmogrification-duper

Your body's changing, every part of you is being replaced
Are you happy?
But if you're not, don't blame me
{Blame} my friends from another place
Anything you wanted!
To lose it all!

Today Is A Special Day
(Chorus:)
Today is a special day. M-m-m-m.
Today is a special day. M-m-m-m.
Today is a special day
Today you became more beautiful
Rised up to your full height
Shook off the dust of bad luck
Took up your place in life
Today you became perfect
Today after washing the face
You wiped the previous tears marks
And the entire mode of life
You take seriously
Today you understood
The world around you is real
Today you got a trash and a stuff
Out of your head
Cleared your mind from drunk
And dizzy weed
Today you said No
To all needless habits
Today you are in your own power
No one will help you
Today is your chance and the time
To make a statement
Today you realized
That was born for wins
(Chorus:) (2x)
Today is not the time for the weak
Selection is spares no one
The screaming voice inside
Tells you
Today you have to forget
About fatigue and laziness
Today the power in your hands
You with a firm faith in yourself
The whole world is stagnant and waiting for
Changes from you
Remember
Today is a special day
(Chorus:)

Queen of loneliness
Blow of the wind, my heart is crying
Can't be calm, how much I tried
Just conceal and secrete it
Instruction to me has to be followed
Stop hiding the secret
The truth is
This is me, this is me
Can't be hidden anymore
This is me, this is me
Turning my back on the world
If I hear what they're saying
Brought by the storm
This heart is fond of cold
Problems are melting
While I'm moving far
Fear that stopped me
Is not a stopper anymore
I can do what I want
My limits will test it
There's no forbidden, there's no wrong
Because
This is me, this is me
The sky and wind is now mine
This is me, this is me
I will not cry anymore
Observe my home
Brought by the storm
The power can't control its flow
Honesty of my spirit makes an ice masterpiece
Shout of the mind is like air in making decision
I won't return back
Leave all now
This is me, this is me
I will wake up the world
This is me, this is me
Now honest to the heart
Observe, the sun is only mine
Brought by the storm
This heart is fond of cold

Nobody's Freedom
A heavy burden is stifling
Puking from the food
We are not sprouted seed
Don't have to water us
A tall is pressing a low
A feeble endures everything silently
The blood of our brothers and close friends
Always will save us from death
(Chorus)
Hey! Hey! A calmness of brook
Is disturbed by the same brook
Hey! Hey! Nobody's freedom
Nobody's was and nobody's will
Who still believes in freedom miracles
With the advent of High-Tech age
Each of us has a mysterious forest inside
Full of fads and fun
At the crossroads of ways in passing dialogues and topics
One road will attract three figures
Out of a million kids, we smile to everyone
But as everyone, love only our own
(Chorus)
Hey! Hey! A strength of shoulder
Is crashing against a hundred of shoulders
Hey! Hey! Nobody's freedom
Nobody's was and nobody's will
Hey! Hey! To a rook's prey
Is gathering a flock of rooks
Hey! Hey! Nobody's freedom
Nobody's was and nobody's will

A little warmer
Evening is putting out candles and spreading a shawl on shoulders
Morning is melting a steel by mother-of-pearl and turbid light
Snowstorm is blowing from the south,
the night, my friend, is sowing dreams
Stars with angry look are shining into nests, in the nests we are
(Chorus: )
The sun will flash with ultraviolet light
And will a little warmer in my heart
The soul will light up like the star
The world has never been more beautiful
Clouds lumped together, scalding air, bogged down step
The sun is knocking at a window, the magician drawing rings in the sky

The sun will flash with ultraviolet light
And will a little warmer in my heart
The soul will light up like the star
The world has never been more beautiful

Way-hay-ya-hay
The pipe is so very sacred,
We offer our prayers with it, hay-hay-hay
The circle is sacred as well,
We pray within it, hay-hay-yo
The pipe is so very sacred,
We offer our prayers with it, hay-hay-hay
The circle is sacred as well,
We pray within it, hay-hay-yo
(It goes on repeating)

When the sun shines I cry
Lambe:
In order to forgive,
you must ask yourself,
am I able to forget,
able to carry on.
When pride holds you,
in your own claws,
you should know,
not one of us is perfect.
Ljuka:
There are moments in life,
you'd put an end to it all.
But the world isn't black & white,
in it, forgive only the brave.
When pride holds you,
in your own claws,
you should know,
not one of us is perfect.
Refrain:
When the sun shines, I cry
to send it away with tears,
but when it rains, I rejoice
awaiting for it to shine again.
Lambe & Ljupka:
There are moments in life,
you'd put an end to it all.
But the world isn't black & white,
in it, forgive only the brave.
When pride holds you,
in your own claws,
you should know,
not one of us is perfect.
Refrain 2x
Not one of us is perfect!
Not one of us is perfect!
Refrain 2x
I wait for it to shine again!

Laughing at ourselves
Something's amiss yet again and yet again we're in a bind,
and more bills, and nothing left to pay them.
Stuck in my throat, a lump of this food
a generous credit allowed to buy.
We are loudly told how wonderful our life is
and the only thing we need is a bit more activity,
in this country where prices rise every day
and only wages prove to be remarkably stable.
(chorus)
As our scary life
flows away like water,
we just laugh at ourselves.
By and large we're okay.
A young idiot races through the city as if on a highway,
showing off his car's practical top speed.
The kid who happened to cross the street lies
on the operation table. No way you could revive him.
Of course the case is bound to go to court.
A medal won't fill the prosecutor's plate though
A plump enveloppe under the right table
and the defendant merrily drives away.
(chorus)
As our scary life
flows away like water,
we just laugh at ourselves.
By and large we're okay
This translation does not claim to be of any particular value.
Glad if you liked it, sorry if you didn't.
You can reuse it as you please.
Glad if it's for knowledge or understanding, sorry if it's just for money or fame.

After Everything I Miss You
So, tell me how much time passed
You're torturing my soul
Look, it's not pleasant, my pretty
No, I'm not a joker or a player
Just writing how slowly my time passes
When you're not with me
Tell me why to ruin everything
How we still didn't learn not to fall
I always take to my heart
Your heart forgets everything
How everything became normal for you
How your conscience is silent when it's bad for me
Sometimes I'm getting a little crazy
After everything I miss you...
You took everything
Even took a flight without asking
What will become of my pain
That didn't stop growing in my heart
I also want to run away from everything
To put my head on some lone island
So teach me a bit about how to cope
Tell me why to ruin everything
How we still didn't learn not to fall
I always take to my heart
Your heart forgets everything
How everything became normal for you
How your conscience is silent when it's bad for me
Sometimes I'm getting a little crazy
After everything I miss you...
And why, why did you leave
All the good, you forgot
It could've been good for us
Could've been good for us...
Tell me why to ruin everything

The Crescent and the Cross
Our life is a stream of risk and fear
Which is not to bridge above
Some believe the word of Allah
Other teachings of Christ
Clouds are breathe of morning light
Turning off the lights of the streetlights
The rays shine on the roofs
Mosques and monasteries
(Chorus:)
Your anger isn't needed by anyone here
Wipe from the face all grimaces
Religion shouldn't be outside
Religion is keep inside
Flashes upward with a fiery cargo
Three-color banner and pole
Where a strong and amicable union
The Crescent and the Cross are fold together
We all argue who's the lord
To come to a decision in vowel
Only God is one in our world
We just believe in it differently
Shadows are hidden by sunlight
The wind licking the heat of the batteries
In this case, are pouring, reigning
Life of mosques and monasteries
(Chorus:)
Your anger isn't needed by anyone here
Wipe from the face all grimaces
Religion shouldn't be outside
Religion is keep inside
Flashes upward with a fiery cargo
Three-color banner and pole
Where a strong and amicable union
The Crescent and the Cross are fold together

How I Wish You Were Here
Versions: #2
How I wish you were here
But the city is so sad
And you're on the other side
All these houses are so ugly
Oh, how I wish you were here
Oh, how I wish you were here
How I wish you were here
But the city is so big
And you're on the other side
All these houses are so ugly
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish you were here
From Zum Reporter Klara smiles at me
I pull out my little friend, yank on it savagely
And again it's nice for five minutes
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish you were here
Oh, how I wish you were here
But the city is so big
And you're on the other side
All these houses are so ugly
Oh, how I wish you were here
Oh, how I wish you were here
Oh, how I wish you were here

MONA ROSA
MONA ROSA
Mona Rosa, black roses, white roses
The roses of Geyve and the white bed
The bird with a broken wing wants mercy
Oh, they will ensanguined with blood because of you
Mona Rosa, black roses, white roses
Dirty jackals howl at the moon,
Rabbits look at the mountain timidly.*
Mona Rosa, there is something wrong with me today
The rain falls to the ground in huge drops
Dirty jackals howl at the moon.
Don't open your window, draw the curtains,
Mona Rosa, I shouldn't see you.
One look will suffice for me to be dead.
Understand Mona Rosa, I am a lunatic.
Don't open your window, draw the curtains.
Olive trees, willow shade,
Come to light with me.
An engagement ring, a door sound
Remind me of you all the time.
Olive trees, willow shade.
Lilies bloom in the most deserted areas
And there is pride in every wildflower.
The wind waiting behind a candle
Keeps rocking my lightless soul.
Lilies bloom in the most deserted areas.
Your hands, your hands, and your fingers
Are like crushing a garnet.
A woman is understood from her hands,
Like touring at the bottom of the sea.
Your hands, your hands, and your fingers.
How fast the time flies Mona!
It's twelve, the lights are gone
Sleep and may cranes appear in your dream
Don't look weirdly at the sky this much.
How fast the time flies Mona!
Pipits come in the evenings,
They perch on the fig trees of my garden.
Some are white, some are yellow.
Oh, should they shoot me instead of a bird!
Pipits come in the evenings.
And I, Mona Rosa, find you
In the glances of pipits.
Fill this empty sail with life
Your innocent glances at the water edge.
And I, Mona Rosa, find you.
Don't look at my face injuredly, Rosa.
You haven't listened to ballads from me.
My love is not suited to every instrument.
A bullet sings the most beautiful song.
Don't look at my face injuredly, Rosa.
Now believe me, immigrant girl,
Listen to and accept my confession.
A cold, an odd, a blue ache**
Pervaded all sides of me.
Now believe me, immigrant girl.
Spica grows after the rains,
Fruits ripen with patience.
One day, look into my eyes deeply
You'll understand why the dead lives.
Spica grows after the rains.
Gold bracelets, that scented skin
Should answer to that bloody bird feather.***
Such a feather that perishes if you smile,
Such a feather that is closed for day and night.
Gold bracelets, that scented skin.
Mona Rosa, black roses, white roses
The roses of Geyve and the white bed
The bird with a broken wing wants mercy
Oh, they will ensanguined with blood because of you
Mona Rosa, black roses, white roses
