Ma Jolie

[Intro:]
What happened to us, we don't talk anymore
I want to know if you think of me or not
 
What happened to us, we don't talk anymore
I want to know if you think of me or not
 
[Verse 1:]
Ma Jolie ma Jolie, black magic was done on us
May the bad return twice to them who have done us wrong
It's better we don't see each other anymore cause I know I'm not good for you
When you're with him, you close your eyes and think of me, ma Jolie
 
We were soulmates from the very first day
You came wearing a black dress
But I wanted to see you in a white dress
Since the day you were gone, I've only had bad days
 
[Chorus:]
What happened to us, we don't talk anymore
I want to know if you think of me or not
 
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
But if you do ever think of me, then write me a song
 
[Verse 2:]
Don't misunderstand me and think that I want you back
I know you don't want me, what's happened has happened, fuck it, it's done! Aye
You've opened a fake account to watch my stories
I know you watch them ever since we split
You opened a fake account to watch my stories
This snap is for you, I know you can see it
 
I don't want you to come back to me, nor do I want to come back you
But if you call me to see me, only you know what I'll do to you
 
[Chorus:]
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
We don't talk anymore, we don't talk anymore
But if you do ever think of me, then write me a song
 
[Bridge:]
We drink our sorrows, we smoke our problems
We close our eyes, and the time rewinds
You're cooking me lunch
I'm holding you from behind, smelling your scent
Your scent reminds me of spring
Maybe we're not together anymore
But when we open our eyes, at least the memories remain
 
[Chorus:]
What happened to us, we don't talk anymore
I want to know if you think of me or not
 
What happened to us, we don't talk anymore
I want to know if you think of me or not
 
We don't talk anymore, (ma Jolie)
We don't talk anymore,
We don't talk anymore, (ma Jolie)
But if you ever think of me...

Do Something Crazy For Me

Yeah
Ye-ah
Yeah
 
Do something crazy for me
Run screaming out, drink and cry
Get sloshed and spray words onto the walls saying that you adore me
 
Do something crazy for me
Stay with me until dawn, lose track of time
Come out with me to paty up, night away
 
It's the only way I'll buy this story
That you've missed having me around
Put into practice the silly things of memory
Less thinking, more doing, bring it on
Come in, try to blend in with scum
Just like I've already done a thousand crazy things for you
 
Two of us
If it's to start over, then let it be to the end
Two of us
If it's not meant to be, I won't leave your side
Two of us
I can only accept it after you do something crazy for me
Something crazy for me
Something crazy for me
 
After
You prove me that you will do anything
After
You can say whatever you want about me
After
I can only accept it after you do something crazy for me
Something crazy for me

Gyógyító varázslat

Virág, sugározz és izz
Engedd ragyogni fényedet
Tekerd vissza az időt
Hozd vissza, mi egyszer az enyém volt
 
Gyógyítsd meg, amit megsebeztek
Változtasd meg a Sors tervét
Mentsd meg, ami elveszett
Hozd vissza, mi egyszer az enyém volt
 
Mi egyszer az enyém volt
 

Advance Australia Fair [Dharawal verse]

We Australian mob are going to have a good dance
We good young fellows
Good earth and speared a lot of wallabies

Earth having a lot of animals and waratahs
Go along the path Australians

Ba'ath Anthem

O Arab youth come on, o my convoy go forth!
Lift your voice and say: “Long live the Arabic Ba’ath!”
 
O Arab youth come on, O my convoy go forth!
Lift your voice and say: “Long live the Arabic Ba’ath!”
 
We are farmers and workers, and youngsters without softness
We are fighting soldiers, we are the voice of hardworking!
From the depths of the world we came, from the core of struggle
With sacrificing we never were greedy and with giving the most generous
 
O Arab youth come on, O my convoy go forth!
Lift your voice and say: “Long live the Arabic Ba’ath!”
 
The trench of the revolutionaries is one, otherwise we say the injustice has vanished
Patience o Ba’ath and keep resist! Verily you’re at the domain of struggle!
Unite the free people, unite the glorious (Arab) nation!
O Ba’ath keep going on strong and firm, to a new day of freedom and dignity
 
O Arab youth come on, O my convoy go forth!
Lift your voice and say: “Long live the Arabic Ba’ath!”
 

Italian Christmas

Feel the warmth of the city
Feel the madness singing
See this sun over me
It brings back the cheerfulness I've lost with you
 
Free to live like this
Still walking south
I find how this sea can enchant
How I can sail my longing for you
 
An Italian Christmas where love lives
Underneath a starry sky my skin gets heated by the sunlight
An Italian Christmas for those who love love
For those who live dreaming of summer and winter in the sunlight
 
We'll keep dancing together
As long as our cheerfulness is intact
Look how this face changes
When I see your smile
When I sing for you
 
An Italian Christmas where love lives
Underneath a starry sky my skin gets heated by the sunlight
An Italian Christmas for those who love love
For those who live dreaming of summer and winter in the sunlight
 
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
Dancing, dancing...
 
An Italian Christmas where love lives
Underneath a starry sky my skin gets heated by the sunlight
An Italian Christmas for those who love love
For those who live dreaming of summer and winter in the sunlight

3 Songs: A Luigi Tenco Medley

And far, far away in time,
something in the eyes of another
will make you think again of my eyes—
of these eyes that loved you so very much.
 
And far, far away in the world—
in the smile on the lips of another—
you will see that shyness
of which you made such fun.
 
And far, far away in time,
by chance, the look on a face
will recall to you my face
and the sad expression that you so loved.
 
And far, far away in the world,
one beautiful evening, you will be with someone else.
And suddenly, who knows how or why?
You will find yourself speaking to her of me.
 
A love, from this day on, so far away.
 
___________________
 
The usual road, white like salt—
the wheat to grow, the fields to plow.
Watching every day to see if it rains or shines,
to know if tomorrow you will live or die,
and one day saying 'no more' and leaving.
 
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
 
Going far away to search for another world,
saying farewell to the courtyard, going away in a dream.
And then a thousand streets, grey like smoke,
in a world of lights—feeling yourself so insignificant.
Leaping a hundred years in just one day,
from oxcarts in the fields—to airplanes in the sky.
And understanding none of it and yearning to return to you.
 
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
 
Not knowing what to do in a world that knows all,
and having not even a single cent to return to you.
 
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye my love, goodbye.
 
___________________
 
When, in the evening, I return home,
I hardly have the will to speak.
Do not gaze at me with such tenderness
as if I were a child who returned disappointed.
Yes, I know, that this is most certainly not the life
that you envisioned one day for us.
 
You will see, you will see, you will see that it will change—
perhaps not tomorrow but one fine day it will change.
 
You will see, you will see that I am not yet finished.
I cannot tell you how or when, but all will change.
 
I would rather know that you cry—
that you reproach me for having disappointed you—
and not to see you always so sweet.
Accept all that comes from me,
it makes me think more about you,
and I cannot give you more than that of me.
 
You will see, you will see, you will see that it will change—
perhaps not tomorrow but one fine day it will change.
 
You will see, you will see, you will see that it will change—
perhaps not tomorrow but one fine day it will change.
 

Muhammad Ali

Hogy két lüktetést összehangoljunk
Az a pillanat és az örökkévaló kérdése.
Az egyedül maradástól való félelmet
Az idő és a reklám közt mérik.
Lehet hogy nem számolok már el százig.
Az ösztön igaz lehet a megszólalás előtt
És ahogy én szerencsére jól vagy rosszul vagyok
Ismersz engem.
 
Mindig az történik, hogy irányt tévesztek
Utcát váltok és talpon maradok
Minden amit éjjelente álmodunk
Azt a szemekben és abban mérik amit nem látsz.
 
Megesik hogy minden reggel felébredsz
És a te legnagyobb ellenséged rád mosolyog a tükörben.
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap
Hogy az életet egy ringbe ragják be.
 
Úgy Muhammad Ali állt talpon
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
Aki nyer az veszít egy pillanatot
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap
 
Mindig megtörténik, hogy minden vihar után
A levegő más milyen és talán te sem vagy a régi
És hogy amikor pont felejteni akarsz
Újra szerelemes leszel és nem gondolkozol már.
 
Mindig megtörténik hogy
Bátor vagyok időben megjelenni
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap
 
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
Aki nyer az veszít egy pillanatot
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap
Hogy az életet egy ringbe ragják be.
Úgy Muhammad Ali állt talpon
 
Mindig
Mindig
Győzünk, vesztünk örökké
Mindig
Mindig
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
Aki nyer az veszít egy pillanatot
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap
Hogy az életet egy ringbe ragják be.
Úgy Muhammad Ali állt talpon
Mindannyian Muhammad Alik vagyunk.
És ahogy én szerencsére jól
Vagy rosszul vagyok mindennap.
 

Dances With Wolves

You never belonged in this landscape
Where only concrete trees grow
Wind in your hair and wilderness in your eyes
A restlessness in your steps
 
I'd keep you if I could
But something inside you would die
Like a hawk without wind would be nothing
Something you must set free
The thing you love
You can't keep it anyways
 
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
 
Our children have your tangled hair
And the same wilderness in their eyes
I know you choose your path, my cub
And I can't watch over your sleep anymore
 
I'd keep you if I could
But something inside you would die
Like a hawk without wind would be nothing
Something you must set free
The thing you love
You can't keep it anyways
 
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
 
You left many times
You always returned
Now our furs have turned grey
I know that this time you're leaving for good
See the wilderness once again
 
You'd no longer hear if I shouted after you
You went to dance with the wolves
And from afar I hear you howling at the moon
Is it just the wind?
You went to dance with the wolves
You went to dance with the wolves
 

Alisa

You've gone, and my life is empty
I'm starting with from scratch
It's just the first sadness
That got into my heart
Like a kitten I'm going to curl up in a ball
Like I'm afraid of going away from childhood
Even a teddy bear on your bed
Will give me a sad smile
 
There is a long trip to Looking-Glass World
Lost all her dreams
Alice has just grown up
She doesn't need you anymore
 
I gave her colourful dreams
A half of the sun and the moon
It's too bad that you and I
Got lost somewhere on the road
Everything is just for you in this world
Talk to me for five minutes
I'll look into your eyes
And won't find any answers
 
You've gone from the sun and warmth
You've gone, but you used to be mine
I want to win you back
But the lips whisper 'Too late, too late'
Black and white life has come
Where is colours and pencils?
There are thorns in my soul
Though it used to be roses
 

It doesn’t matter from where you’re writing now

lyrics Sergei Ivkin - at vk.com/vershitell
music Alexei Belyaev – at bards.ru
perf. Elena Bushueva - at
translation by Dmytro Zelenskyy -- August 30, 2016
 
It doesn’t matter from where you’re writing now, dear -
which shore or life stage,
doesn’t matter which language your children will have to learn there –
is it English, Hebrew, or French,
whatever the country you’re in, on which side –
of planet, or river Styx -
doesn’t matter, because all we have - is to say
farewell,
memorizing some pic[ture]s.
 
And even if it smells and sounds like immigrants’ woes –
like Bruegel, like Brodsky,
That’s how it’s repeating itself, dear, once… –
once you feel yourself as an orphan.
We grow through each other besides any
actual contacts.
We all are connected to something Above,
we are Whole in the Common -
you know this now.
 

The Guelder-Rose Blooms

I for the longest have loved you
Why don't you notice
And give me flowers?
I['ll] follow you and steal glances
Only I won't tell anyone of my love for you.
 
The guelder-rose blooms in a field near a steam,
The oleander blooms and I
Go crazy without your love
And without you,
And you pass by, as always,
And never look at me!
You are my unhappiness, my love,
My sorrow1...
 
The sun is out and the moon has set...
You are alone and I am alone.
Hear me, sweet dear,
My good dear guy,
Have pity, don't stop dreaming2,
Just give me flowers
And whisper that you love me.

Crazy Heart

A crazy heart that still follows you
and day and night thinks only of you.
And I can never make her understand
that you love someone else and not me.
 
A crazy heart, crazy to latch on,
that still believes you think of me.
She is not convinced that you left—
that you left me and will not return.
 
Tell her the truth—(tell her the truth).
And perhaps she will understand—(perhaps understand)
because you never before told the truth.
 
A crazy heart that loves you
and forgives you for everything you do.
But sooner or later you know that she will heal,
and you will lose her—thus you will lose her.

Nonsense

I forgot, I'm not waiting for it anymore
Keep your love with you and let the sorrow inside me end
It's a big nonsense for us to be together
Were we tricked by the sun so we burned each other?
Oh no, the bride, no
A smoke took the mountains
 
A love that can neither be read nor written
We have fallen into love without realising
We could become neither a tale nor heroes
There were unspoken and unheard words
The truth is a lie
We could become neither a tale nor heroes
 
I forgot all loves I knew and I have had seen
They were at my side
I never suffered for it
I let my heart fly and take the clouds with it
Sound of rain and the fresh solid
Do they heal the wounds?
 
A love that can neither be read nor written
We have fallen into love without realising
We could become neither a tale nor heroes
There were unspoken and unheard words
The truth is a lie
We could become neither a tale nor heroes

The Juicy Little Apple

You've uncoiled the clew
To the last little1thread2
And you've beat a path
To my garden little1gate
 
Once it would get dark
You used to ask me out,
But now those trysts
Have passed into legend.
 
The juicy little1apple
Is spinning in the saucer.3
Who failed to keep his love,
- Oh, later he'll realize his mistake!
 
Oy, my little1clew, my clew,
Silky little1threads,
So where's my dovelet now,4
At which garden little1gate?
 
I would cross any
Field, meadow or forest,
Just to catch a glimpse
Of his new passion.
 
But my clew doesn't want
To uncoil its little1threads.
There's no point in
Spying on you, my dovelet:4
 
At nights a star
Falls on my palm.
Soon with someone else
The girl will get engaged.
 
The juicy little1apple
Is spinning in the saucer.3
Who failed to keep his love,
- Oh, later he'll realize his mistake!
 

• It's a term of endearment. Like little river = rivulet, little dove = dovelet
• 2. This is a reference to old Russian fairy tales in which a protagonist would follow a rolling magic ball of yarn to find something or someone. For example in this one:
  
• my dovelet = my darling, my sweatheart

A Little Bit from Me

Yeah!
Natalia!
 
Oooh...
 
The both of us exhausted at dusk,
Time doesn't breathe.
Without prejudices, without thinking why,
We join our lives.
 
We've decided to blend into one single being
By tasting every part of our skins,
Kiss by kiss and without giving up.
 
And your mouth always reaches heaven, it reaches heaven...
And your body dies of desire... Of desire!
You know that I've lost all sense of decorum
Just so I can love you,
And your mouth always reaches heaven, it reaches heaven...
 
[Chorus:]
Oh ooh!
This game is uniting the both of us!
I know that you want the same that I want:
A little bit from me,
A little bit from you
Without any other conditions.
 
Oh ooh!
I know that you have the same intention
And this game is turning us into addicts:
A little bit from you,
A little bit from me
Without any complications.
 
There are silences that know how to lie
Under the full moon.
Without permission, nothing needs to be forbidden:
We break all the barriers.
 
This has been something only between the both of us:
Everything was written deep in our hearts!
I look at you, you look at me,
I give you my life...
Your life is my own ¡ah!
 
And your mouth always reaches heaven, it reaches heaven...
And your body dies of desire... Of desire!
You know that I've lost all sense of decorum
Just so I can love you,
And your mouth always reaches heaven, it reaches heaven...
 
[Chorus:]
Oh ooh!
This game is uniting the both of us!
I know that you want the same that I want:
A little bit from me,
A little bit from you
Without any other conditions.
 
Oh ooh!
I know that you have the same intention
And this game is turning us into addicts:
A little bit from you,
A little bit from me
Without any complications.
 
[Bridge:]
If we're both feeling equally,
We shouldn't ever renounce to loving:
We only need to take the risk...
 
Oh, oh, oh...
 
(Whoa!)
 
And, even if you prefer it so,
You shall never forget my love
Because I've reached very deep.
And you know that, deep inside,
Inside your heart,
I know that you cannot forget me.
 
I'm a scar that you won't ever make disappear
Even with the passing of time.
Understand that you shall never find
Someone like me.
 
[Chorus:]
Oh ooh!
This game is uniting the both of us!
I know that you want the same that I want:
A little bit from me,
A little bit from you
Without any other conditions.
 
Oh ooh!
I know that you have the same intention
And this game is turning us into addicts:
A little bit from you,
A little bit from me
Without any complications.
 
(Shake it!)
 
(Hey-ey-ey-eh-eh!)
Your heart is the one in power
And it wants my samba...
(Hey-ey-ey-eh-eh!)
From Cuba to Spain
I'm giving my soul to you...
(Hey-ey-ey-eh-eh!)
(Natalia!)
You know that you're my addiction!
 
A little bit from you,
A little bit from me
Without any complications...
 
(There's no need for so much fuss, baby...)
 

Blue Moon

But you, pale moon, why
are you so sad—what is it?
Why don't you shine for me?
 
From up there, you can see in my heart
the disappointment of love—
that is my great torment.
 
You know what kisses she could give me,
and you too cannot forget.
Perhaps you feel the melancholy—
perhaps you know that she never returns?
 
But you, pale moon, why
are you so sad—what is it?
Do you want to suffer with me?
 
You know what kisses she could give me,
and you too cannot forget.
Perhaps you feel the melancholy—
perhaps you know that she never returns?
 
But you, pale moon, why
are you so sad—what is it?
Do you want to suffer with me?

When I make a comeback

loose translation by Dmytro Zelenskyy
March 30th, 2018
 
When I make a comeback [-don’t start laughing]
- yes, no kidding, when I do come back,
at the end of cold season I run
through the dirty snow desert
never touching the ground,
as barely visible trek
leads me to the night lodging and warmth…
[and - imagine it further -]
on yours birds voice decoy
I will flinch with a joy
and in search turn around… oh, boy!
when I make a comeback
 
Oh! When I do come back…
... hey, listen, hey, listen, - don’t laugh... then…
… when I do come back...
From rail station directly,
just easily passing
all customs,
from rail station I’ll run into town -
dark, poor and fake -
that has nothing, but curse me and
barking for my decimation…
… when I make a comeback,
oh, when I do come back…
When I make a comeback,
I then go
to exceptional house
with blue dome such a perfect - the skies
can’t compete it on beauty,
olibanum aroma -
the smell of a shelter and bread -
will hit me with a splash
and through nose pours to wash up my heart
when I be here back…
oh, when I do come back…
When I make a comeback,
in despite of the Feb
nightingales will start whistle
the old melody -
ancient, forgotten and fade,
there I fell, knocked, defeated
by very own victory and overwhelmed,
and my head ‘ll come to the rest
at your knees
like at natal levee… oh, Marie
when I do come back here…
… but when I’ll come back here?
 

Much Further Than the Earth

He comes from much further than the earth.
His life is a mystery, but he knows how to please me.
Never, even in a smile,
did he want to tell me what I want to hear.
 
He's the one who comes in all my dreams
to hover over my lips as the night comes to an end.
Despite his strange ways,
he is as beautiful as an angel when he gazes at me.
 
Tell me if I must feel love
for a great love who comes from far away?
From so far away that I no longer know anything.
 
But, much further than the earth,
I would like him to take me away like a dead leaf.
One day, when he will have understood me,
I would like him to tell me words that intoxicate me—
words that intoxicate me—
words that intoxicate me ...
 

Dance

I close my eyes and I dream—how are you?
Come on, stay with me again—here with me.
But, in love, you cannot turn back time—no you cannot.
 
Oh, tears and smiles on us
leave an extra mark on the face.
The seasons change but my heart—does not.
 
Keep dancing with anger and hope
and do not lose any of your power.
Come on, boy, dance and light up the room.
Love is a feeling that is born in a moment.
 
A new love is born—how are you?
And you still feel so very young.
You get drunk with happiness and this life of mine.
 
Keep dancing with anger and hope.
Love is a feeling that blows like the wind.
 
~~~~
 
Now I smile at you, my love.
I caress your face as we part.
If you are afraid, I do not know—but my heart is not.
 
Keep dancing with anger and hope
and do not lose any of your power.
Come on, boy, dance and light up the room.
Love is a feeling that is born in a moment.
 
Keep dancing with anger and hope
and do not lose any of your power.
 

To Leave or Die

Versions: #2
My life took on water from every side—
in a word, everything capsized.
The sky is upside down
but the world continues turning.
 
Ask what? Call whom?
My only desire is to shatter everything–
to bite the sheets on my bed—
the rage in my belly—I am going to forget you.
 
Finished with being here in your life
like a plant, like a photograph.
I fancy going out into the rain—
floating on my back in a warm river.
 
Let's end this joke of tenderness
that so many women mistake for love.
My brain is about to explode
and I'm going to extricate myself a day at a time.
 
And to leave or die or sleep for a long time—
and then awaken one day
in another time
rid of your love.
 
And to leave or die or sleep for a long time—
and never to awaken—
to stop time
as if I had dreamed it all.
 
Finish drowning yourself in emptiness
and trying to dance on moving sands.
The fear of time, the fear of lines on your skin
lessens with aging—let it be right now.
 
I will learn to run again,
to see the brilliant sun in my eyes.
I want to catch hold of wild laughter—
to live while throwing oil on the fire.
 
And to leave or die or sleep for a long time—
and then awaken one day
in another time
rid of your love.
 
And to leave or die or sleep for a long time—
and never to awaken—
to stop time
as if I had dreamed it all.
 

Alone with Myself

It is just eight o'clock and the house awakens.
A radio plays a song at a neighbor's house.
I butter toast standing in the kitchen
because you're always hungry in the morning.
Then each of us hurries and, on your fresh cheek,
I caress you and say: 'Until tonight.'
And you hurry away while, from my window,
I give you a good-bye wave.
 
You left and I stay here.
I stay alone, alone with myself.
All my life, I pass it here.
I stay alone, all alone at home.
 
I have what I want—the best and the worst—
the golden life and the desire to leave.
They say I'm lucky but I cry in silence
on my big bed and over my future.
Behind my grin, they do not see the evidence
of those desires that tear apart the heart—
for the gentleman across the street, for the young man passing by—
for a moment of love, for a quarter of an hour.
 
You left and I stay here.
I stay alone, alone with myself.
All my life, I pass it here.
I stay alone, all alone at home.
 
That's my vie en rose, always to do the same thing
while following the path that has been laid out for me.
Like all women, I have the same schedule,
and 'The Today Show' on TV.
Nobody imagines that I might have real thoughts—
that sometimes I might want to travel.
The adventure is over, despite myself—I'm sure
that nothing will ever happen to me.
 
You left and I stay here.
Me here alone, alone with myself.
All my life, I pass it here.
Is it really happiness, all this?
 

Érintetlen

Emlékszem, mikor azt mondtad
'Együtt a legvégéig'
Együtt mondanánk
 
Kergetjük az örökkévalóságot
Mégis egyedül állok itt
Ezen a törött úton
A darabokra tört szívemet keresve
Szétszóródtak a darabok
 
Minden megígért megtört ígéret
Versengésre ösztökél, hogy keresztül jussak a fájdalmon
És harcolni fogok a sötétséggel
Minden fénnyel, ami bennem van
 
Minden oldalt ezelőttről
Most kitörlök az emlékezetemről
Újra fogom írni a gyengeségeimet erővé
 
Bár az emlékeimet kísértik
A reményem rettenthetetlen marad
Erősebb, mint valaha
Minden kimondott hazugságodon keresztül
Érintetlen maradok
Erősebb, mint valaha (erősebb, mint valaha)
 
Ott hagytál elveszve a tengeren
A hullámok átcsapnak a fejem felett
Az árulástól felborulok
Nem hittem, hogy túlélhetem
A tökéletes viharral harcoltam
Most újjászülettem
A szél és eső végtelennek tűnt
De a bátorságom könyörtelen
 
Minden megígért megtört ígéret
Versengésre ösztökél, hogy keresztül jussak a fájdalmon
És harcolni fogok a sötétséggel
Minden fénnyel, ami bennem van
 
Minden oldalt ezelőttről
Most kitörlök az emlékezetemről
Újra fogom írni a gyengeségeimet erővé
 
Bár az emlékeimet kísértik
A reményem rettenthetetlen marad
Erősebb, mint valaha
Minden kimondott hazugságodon keresztül
Érintetlen maradok
Erősebb, mint valaha (erősebb, mint valaha)
 
Bár az emlékeimet kísértik
A reményem rettenthetetlen marad
Erősebb, mint valaha
Minden kimondott hazugságodon keresztül
Érintetlen maradok
Erősebb, mint valaha (erősebb, mint valaha)
Ó, erősebb vagyok, mint valaha
 

The Twist Lesson

From everywhere, you hear nothing but this:
a new tune that comes from down there.
A new tune that makes you feel rad,
and, like me, it will grab you.
 
It's a dance with a catchy rhythm
and it swings when danced by two.
No need for sweet gazes in the eyes.
It's enough just to be happy.
 
Twist and twist—you will all do it!
Twist and twist—and you will see everyone!
Twist and twist—the entire world twists!
 
One foot in front and both hands closed,
lean slightly over to one side,
and don't forget also to twist.
A bit more work and you have it.
 
That's it—yes like that!
 
And if tonight you go out and flirt
in the hope of hooking up,
then just do the twist like this.
I know that you will score!
 
Twist and twist—you will all do it!
Twist and twist—and you will see everyone!
Twist and twist—the entire world twists!
 
Run a little and jump from time to time.
Then lower yourself very slowly—
all the while swinging.
That's it—now you have it!
 
There it is—that's it—yes that!
There it is—good—change nothing!
There it is—twist!
 

Airplane Windows

Right in the center
you arrived like an anticyclone
right in the center
you shot and i lost my mind
 
you knit a spiderweb
burning my bowels
arriving to that corner
 
I see my eyelashes jumping/falling
all those rheums
from plane window dreams
 
I'm running without looking at an existential gap
I feel salt embed in my wounds
I fall from my head
I know i'll get wet and i don't know how to sim
lost in this sea
 
Tears
from acid rain
cellophan paper smiles
 
my skin is burning
in fireproof flames
and no one will ever see it
 
I don't know if i want to escape
or rather get caught
by this darkness
 
To melt in a frozen hug
in an invisible cage
from this apparent reality
 
I'm running without looking at an existential gap
I feel salt embed in my wounds
I fall from my head
I know i'll get wet and i don't know how to sim
lost in this sea
 
I'm running without looking at an existential gap
I feel salt embed in my wounds
I fall from my head
I know i'll get wet and i don't know how to sim
lost in this sea
 
lost in this sea
 

So True

It's true that I have an accent that rolls on songs that croon.
It's true, so true.

But I prefer Josephine to Cleopatra, Ménilmontant to the cellars of
the Vatican.

and that suits me very well indeed.

I have lovers by the thousands.

It's true, so true.

and that suits me very well indeed.
 
It has been said for nearly twenty years that I will not live past
the spring.
They can say whatever they want—I would not be Dalida
if I was not that way.

Like a Symphony

Dreams, dreams, my love, my dream.
In the entire night shines your light
 
My love, when you dream of me, a song rises.
From heaven, the hearts of angels descend—the world changes.
Life becomes a symphony, all illuminated—
soft and clear, sweet and pure—
and you seem very close, very close to me.
 
Whispering in the unreal night, your voice calls out to me.
From heaven, the hearts of angels descend—the world changes.
My life becomes a symphony, all illuminated—
magnificent, pathetic—
it takes on every visage of love.
 
My life will be this symphony, always faithful—
eternal, eternal—that makes a dream become reality.
 
It is you, it is you, it is you.
