Kiss, love, pray

For who knows what time
I'm coming back from your (place)
they silently tell me
I don't exist for you.
 
I call you mine
you live with another (man)
old age is taking me
the low tide is threatening.
 
(2x)
Life gave you to someone else
I still ask about you today
kiss, love, pray
beautiful words full of pain.

Key

For the times I've been lost,
challenging myself in the mirror,
for the things of the past
that cut me internally,
for all the memories,
between those which I forgot,
the nights in a park between friends and chatter,
for when I've been wrong,
a worthless talent,
on a school desk, me, perplexed and pissed,
because of she who loved me,
her planetary eyes,
in which you enter by accident and escape tiptoed,
for the phrases never spoken,
which run and then stop,
for he who speaks of heroes and then after a step surrenders,
my fucking cries, my most-tired eyes,
for he who asks for a smile and has a thousand regrets,
for my promises that are always the same,
I'll go to win and I'll return, Mommy tell me you can,
For my father who waits for me to be calmer,
despite your wrongdoings, you're among the greatest of examples.
 
For the moments of simplicity,
for who remains and who leaves,
for the times that I walk in this street and I don't know where it will bring me
and for he who waits for a different life,
For myself who had a star and then lost it
For he who boasts about being strong, but me, I carve another weakness for myself
Another weakness
Another weakness
 
For he who has seen and failed important projects,
who takes refuge in his grams, his biggest cuts,
for my many parts that make me unstable,
a habitable pain that fills the pages,
for the trojan children who have not understood me,
for he who dreams but only feels a burden,
for he who leaves alone and comes back changed,
for he who instead is shut and from pieces has given up,
for the boat that flies if it doesn't find its sea,
for the fire that burns all who remain,
for the rain that washes my anxieties in the night,
for he who has asked to exist but nobody responds,
For the times I have screamed, 'I feel different,'
and I can not understand where the sense is,
if you're born alone, you live alone, you die alone,
I'm pessimistic enough to feel lonely,
for he who doesn't fall in love because he hates well,
for he who instead loves everyone because emptiness makes him scared,
for the infamous panic for the suspended note,
for he who is last and who goes for the key that I've hung
 
For the moments of simplicity,
for who remains and who leaves,
for the times that I walk in this street and I don't know where it will bring me
and for he who waits for a different life,
For myself who had a star and then lost it
For he who boasts about being strong, but me, I carve another weakness for myself
 
For the moments of simplicity,

Skócia te jó

ha leszáll a fáradt éjjel
dallamok zúgják széjjel
büszkén száll a dal
a völgyekben.
a dombok is nyugodni térnek
ősi vér lükteti a szívet
a nagy lelkek is
itt nyugszanak a közelben
 
alapja a megbecsülés
Skócia, hegyeim földje
magas, büszke
a szorgalom dicsősége
a bátrak dicső földje
a fénylő folyók földje
szívem örök földje
Skócia te jó
 
magas ködös hegyeken
virágos szigeten
dobognak bátor szívek
a skót ég alatt
vad szelektől bújva
barátokkal összefogva
szeretet a szív otthona
mint a szűzies báj
 
alapja a megbecsülés
Skócia, hegyeim földje
magas, büszke
a szorgalom dicsősége
a bátrak dicső földje
a fénylő folyók földje
szívem örök földje
Skócia te jó
 
messze a napsugártól
a skótok nem vidámak
lágy esőt várnak
mi édes mint egy csók
messze hol az ég mindig ragyog
nincsenek rideg napok
összeszorul a szív ha haza gondol
 
alapja a megbecsülés
Skócia, hegyeim földje
magas, büszke
a szorgalom dicsősége
a bátrak dicső földje
a fénylő folyók földje
szívem örök földje
Skócia te jó

Save Our Souls

(K*Rings Brothers in town
Save our souls tonight)
 
The State's sucking us dry, we're already broke
Got no cash at hand and none in the bank
Got a thousand smartphones, but none of 'em work
(Yo, break it down!)
 
Save our souls
Sing S.O.S.!
 
Meanwhile people are so blind, caught in the net
Gettin' love once the party's over, but, I'm afraid, no sex
Save our souls, sing S.O.S.!
(Come on everybody)
 
Save our souls
Sing S.O.S.!
 
(So break it down, down, down
Save our souls tonight)

Forgive me
If I’m standing in front of you

Always save me
From crazy people who don’t believe in anything
And rule this earth

Foreigners will come from all over the world

Listen to my prayer
Make that we are all brothers
Without races, without barriers

Watch over my love and my life

I bought the caccavella

I bought the caccavella 1
I bought the caccavella
the caccavella.
For the love of my darling
for the love of my darling,
of my darling.
If the moon looks at me and dances
with that face of short pastry,
of shortcrust pastry.
I do not even care about that
I sing this little serenade
to my beloved one.
 
Tell me, tell me, who gave birth to you,
who committed this crime.
I'm cooked, I'm overcooked,
I give you the fried fish eye,
So even at night, in my bed,
I'm turning, jumping and shooting.
I commit myself, for you.
My word of honor.
My word of honor.
 
I went to the priest
I went to the priest.
I confessed him
that, because of my darling,
I take it out on the caccavella,
on the caccavella.
The good priest answered to me:
'You, brother, you are ruined,
you are in troubles.
In love, you need patience,
you must do penance.
Three days without '.
 
Tell me, tell me who gave birth to you,
For you I am always afflicted,
Your dress, which was tight,
is now wider than a coat...2
 
Give me, give me a little kiss,
as a biscuit,
I chew your lipstick color
My word of honor.
My word of honor.
 
For this love, I am doing all,
I'm a thief and a policeman
I'm a fool or a scoundrel,
I take the numbers for the Lotto.
 
I get the mange and I scratch myself,
I grow my goatee,
I walk around with a cat,
I dance the samba with my head below.
 
If you cheat on me,
if they call me turd
I am Cornelius 3 and I'm silent,
Carlo Mazza, 4 and I don't give a fuck.
 
We get married with a pact,
that if a little child is born
I grow him, and I give him milk.
My word of honor.
My word of honor.
My word of honor.

Don't Leave Me

Versions: #3
You try to fit the entire world
In the words, you say to me
I'm hearing you but it's so hard
To tell apart what is what
 
This footprint we do not know
But still, find them to follow
Push them to the edges my shadows
What do they hide in dark away from all the lights
We cannot meet but you are the one with my answer
And before all of it ends I wanna know everything
 
It starts to deepen more and more by itself in you as time flows
Between your past and future that has yet to pass is where I, I stand
 
Don't leave me I believe start running now
No ending you're the constant beat of my heart
No matter how much the storm and the rainfall
No matter how dark this darkness that call
I'll find a way to reach out for your hand
You won't be the only one here
 
See the hands on the clock that have not moved for so long
Bit by bit it takes a step as it is moving on
 
Calling me passing me
Different paths. All of it. Destiny
I take it all and start this one-way race
Even if we drift away that's okay
You don't gotta worry about a thing
Nah not a thing
It is time for me to send them across
Make sure to deliver all your thoughts
 
The things I would do differently
If I could just turn back time
Between the world of light and the world of the dark is where you, you cry
 
Don't leave me I believe start reaching now
No ending you're the one last hope of my heart
No matter how much the storm and the rainfall
No matter how dark this darkness that call
Don't close your eyes and feel it in your heart
You won't be the only one here
 
Suddenly all things turn back to yesterday
And now I know how to live through today
After I heard you say
 
Don't leave me I believe start running now
No ending you're the constant beat of my heart
No matter how much the storm and the rainfall
No matter how dark this darkness that call
I'll find a way to reach out for your hand
You won't be the only one here

You never forget anything, you live with it

Hélène Ségara
It's just a story, after all
Similar to thousands of other people's
But still, it's my story
And of course, it's different
You try, you think you can
Forget as time goes by
 
together
You never forget anything, you live with it
 
Laura Pausini
Perhaps you never have been
The present that I'd want
And I failed making yours
Those plans that were only mine
But I have learnt saying no
for the illusion that you are
 
together
to live the memory that I have about us
 
(chorus together)
We all live several lives
But only one great love story
When love fades away
No one ever wins
If we could start all over again
Sweep our mistakes away
You never forget anything, you live with it
 
Laura Pausini
For every single trip I'll make
For every single hug I'll give
I know I'll protect myself
I'll never forget
 
Hélène Ségara
I hoped to have another chance
But it never came
 
together
You never forget anything, you live with it

Whenever you told her 'I love you'
You meant it for life
 
together
You never forget anything!

I know I'll protect myself
I'll never forget

You never forget anything!

In avenue de Neuilly

In
There’s a butcher’s shop,
And when I go to the city
I always pass it by.
 
The big open window
Shines of such a red blood,
On white marble plates
Smokes freshly butchered meat.
 
Today, was hanging on that glass door
A heart, of a calf I think,
Wrapped up in embossed paper
It seemed to me it was shaking in the cold.
 
Then my quick thoughts dashed
To the old marketplace on ,
Where rows of bright windows
Are beheld by women and children.
 
There is hanged in the window of the bookshop
A small book in a thin cover.
It is a torn-out heart
Dangling there to its hook.

The Poet's Song

I haven't trudged through mud
I myself have been the mud trudged through
All that I want is to, by the well
Just wash myself, for so long --
Wash myself until I die
Clean water, clean water and sand
The well winch will bend
Like God's warm elbow
 
So I want to throw up blood
And vomit out that snake that's inside me
So that I'd be allowed to go to the meadows
And tend sheep with my sister
To craft reed flutes with my brother
And climb up church towers to ring the bell
And to persuade God
To take me as an angel
 
I haven't had to clean out muck
I myself have been the muck that's been cleaned out
All that I want is for my mother
To sit beside me by the well
Mother, let your hands be a towel
A white towel, white towel, cool linen
I, your son, have fought, mother
My heart is as heavy as lead
 
So I want to throw up blood
And vomit out that snake that's inside me
So that I'd be allowed to go to the meadows
And tend sheep with my sister
To craft reed flutes with my brother
And climb up church towers to ring the bell
And to persuade God
To take me as an angel

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.

Violence, the kind that kills with words

It's in the eyes of a lost dog without a collar1,
in the heart of a man humiliated by a woman.
It's in the city, plastered on the walls,
idiotic slogans whispered by people.
 
And in the poor child as he watches his father going away,
in the searing memory of the love he's being deprived of.
It's in the voice, it's in the gestures.
You only have to whisper about it, and it will do the rest!
 
Violence, the kind that kills with words
Violence, the kind that shoots you down with a camera
Violence, the kind that won't say its name,
that will never be sorry
that murders in silence...

 
It's printed on an immigrant passport
It's displayed on photo prints2,
it's in the fear, it's in the cry,
in the eye of the victor and in his contempt.
 
It's in the hand of the one who expects it less.
Yesterday or tomorrow, it's still there.
The distant friendship, the hurtful pity,
there it holds true to all its promises.
 
(chorus)
 
It dwells in mud,
gossips and lie.
It's inside every one of us,
like a disease eating at us:
Violence!
 
(chorus)
 
  • 1. refers to a famous novel of the 50's (Lost Dogs Without Collars), about juvenile delinquents being helped by a dedicated case worker
  • 2. lit. 'silver paper', meant as a metonymy for photographs
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.

brave shine

At the bottom of this restless dream
I've been lying for eternity and
A wish in my left hand
Has faded
 
I still linger in this desolate world
Of endless rains and dying hopes
In my right hand there's a memory
As empty as my soul
 
But when my strength is failing
You put your faith in me
Again I'll stand up for the things that you and I hold dear
Once again our hearts entwine, as I put my life on the line
 
Brave shine
When I reach my hand you're my savior light
On the night that left me scarred you saved my life
At the tip of the blade you hold aloft I
See the oath you swore to me
To never let me go till the end of time
Your brave shine
 
In this nebula it's you and me,
Embraced by the blue undying gleam
Of the silent stars that we have lit up
 
And again our blazing hearts collide,
As I watch this uneasy night slip by
A forgotten child was lead astray
In search for distant light
 
When fear is taking over
And I'm feeling defeated
Your voice will give me strength, restore my faith in everything
So just take me by the hand, we will fight until the end
 
Break down
When the sky collapses, we will stand as one
On this endless night you are my breaking dawn
There's a promise we've made to each other
Of beautiful undying dream
Let's keep it deep within forevermore
 
All the little things we cherish,
They will never fade away
Now I know what means the most,
So I'll seize a brand new day
And light up another dawn
 
Brave shine
When I reach my hand you're my savior light
On the night that left me scarred you saved my life
Now my tears have dried and I see clearly,
See the oath I swore to you
To always pull you through till the end of time
My brave shine

Your Girl-friends

[Verse 1]
She doesn't have sentiments, Oy oy, oy oy.
And so many compliments*, Oy oy oy oy oy
When she calls me, I come, no longer (I) throw away the tie.
And she's beautiful and also baker*, and a bit ghetto*,
and she has character, (it's) son of a...*
 
She doesn't drink, and doesn't smoke, she doesn't want trouble.
She waits for the sun to rise, so she could sunbathe.
Not on her lonesome, cause it ain't fun.
 
[Chorus]
So tell me
Where are all your girlfriends, I wanna see hands (up).
Tell me what will be the end with you, I no longer get down on my knees.
Hopa, (she) does to me hopa,*
Tell me what will be with her, what will be with you girls.
What's this, tell me what's this?
(She) does me 'chiqi chiqi dam dam' like this all day.
 
[Verse 2]
If I don't answer her, Oy oy, Oy oy.
It comes (to her) in waves, raises up, Oy oy oy oy oy.
Game of thrones, game of tongues,
A kiss and cutie, go sleep.
Don't get mad go take a smoke say Amen,
She doesn't want to get married.
 
What will you do when the day comes,
When you'll be on your way to the wedding canopy?
if she'll run away that depends on her mood,
and the nature of that time.
She'll hit the jackpot.
 
[Chorus]
So tell me
Where are all your girlfriends, I wanna see hands (up).
Tell me what will be the end with you, I no longer get down on my knees.
Hopa, (she) does to me hopa,*
Tell me what will be with her, what will be with you girls.
What's this, tell me what's this?
(She) does me 'chiqi chiqi dam dam' like this all day.

Mennyország

Az igazság vadul szalad,
mint egy könnycsepp az arcon lefelé
Megpróbálva megmenteni a méltóságom, és apu szívét a töréstől,
Hazudok
 
Ez a hang bennem
felemészt
Megpróbálva helyettesíteni a szerelmet, amit tettetek
Azzal, amire mindkettőnknek szüksége van
 
Az igazság vadul szalad,
Mint a gyerekek a betonon
Megpróbálom megnyugtatni, az elmém a saját kalitkájában van
És érzéketlen azzal, amit látok
 
Ébren, tágra nyílt szemekkel
Ordítok magamra
Próbálva megtartani a hitet és elképzelni az arcát,
ahogy rám néz
 
Egy részem elvesztése nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Egy részem megváltoztatása nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Az összes időm elvesztegetett,
úgy érzem, a szívem hibázott
Szóval ha el kell vesztenem egy részem,
Talán nem is akarom a Mennyországot
 
Az igazság vadul szalad,
Ahogy az eső a tengerbe
Próbálom kiegyenesíteni a sorokat, amiket felvázoltam
Hogy találjak egy kis szabadulást
Ez a hang belül
Felemészt
 
Próbálom elfogadni a képet, amit festettem
Hogy szabaddá színezzen*
 
Egy részem elvesztése nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Egy részem megváltoztatása nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Az összes időm elvesztegetett,
úgy érzem, a szívem hibázott
Szóval ha el kell vesztenem egy részem,
Talán nem is akarom a Mennyországot
 
Szóval elszámolok tizenötig
Elszámolok tizenötig,
elszámolok tizenötig
Szóval elszámolok tizenötig
Elszámolok tizenötig,
elszámolok tizenötig
 
Egy részem elvesztése nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Egy részem megváltoztatása nélkül hogyan jutok a Mennyországba?
Az összes időm elvesztegetett,
úgy érzem, a szívem hibázott
Szóval ha el kell vesztenem egy részem,
Talán nem is akarom a Mennyországot
 
Ha valami pontatlanságot észleltek, üzenetben vagy kommentben jelezzétek! :)

The Garaventa

1
In the harbor of Genoa, a ship is docked from time immemorial, an old warship used as an underage rieducational institute. Its name is ‟Garaventa”.
 
The Garaventa lies still in the harbor,
and so it’s been for many years, motionless through time,
fastened to the earth by strong hawsers
and to the mud of the sea bottom by strong chains.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
A seagull is flying, playing with the wind,
white clouds are chasing after one another in the sky.
Days pass, and months, and seasons,
the cargo hold is full of curses.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
The screw is still, it’s a withered clover
caught in the grips of a hundred braids of seashells,
the deck is washed by tear drops,
the darkness is broken by a single lament.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
Look: in the dark of the hatchway,
a thousand hopes lie buried,
they are waiting for a ribbon of light from the deck,
and in the meantime they are rotting miserably.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.

 
The Garaventa lies still in the harbor,
and so it’s been for many years, motionless through time,
fastened to the earth by strong hawsers
and to the mud of the sea bottom by strong chains.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.

Delusion

There is a feeling deep inside me
That I cannot name
I run randomly in the streets
Along with the horizon
And time throws large shades
There is no beginning and no goal
No thought is wasted
I already think way too much
 
And you dance upon my heart
Without ever showing me your face
I cannot live without you
However I do not recognise you
 
I love you
 
And even though I sometimes say
That I have found you
It was mostly only a delusion
That disappeared in sinister night
And I feel in my soul
That I have never really been loved
I keep walking in the streets
Because I know there is you

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)
Hypno-reformation
(Hypno-reformation)
Transmogrification-duper
 
Can you feel it
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!

The spring kissed

The spring kissed
smoothly, the grove,
and the new green sprouted,
as a green haze.
 
Clouds were passing by,
over the juvenile field...
I saw the leaves trembling,
the fresh April's rains.
 
Under that florid almond tree,
all filled with flowers,
-I remembered- I have cursed,
my loveless youth.
 
Today, in the middle age,
I've stopped to meditate:
''Never-lived youth,
who will dream of you again?''
 
Just learning.

Whatever

These days, whatever you say, it’s boring
Even when we’re together, honestly, I yawn
You ain’t funny to me no more
Even when you talk and spit
I don’t really feel anything
 
You keep trying to get my attention
But I can’t focus, for real
I’m just looking at people passing by
Whatever you say, it doesn’t come into my ear
Maybe I was blind at first
 
(Adults say) that women have hearts like reeds
(In my eyes) everything about you is just whatever
(From one to ten) I don’t like anything about you
(From your head to your toe), you’re just whatever
 
I have no feelings for you
You’re really just whatever
You have no charm, no attraction
You’re so boring
You’re really just whatever
Whatever you do, my eyes won’t go to you
 
You’re just whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
Really whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
More and more whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
Really whatever whatever
Whatever you do, you’re whatever
 
I’m different from others
But I was blind about you for all this time
So maybe you thought I was easy
My heart isn’t moving at all
I have no feelings even till the sun comes up
Whether it’s day or night, you’ve never made me tremble
 
(Adults say) that women have hearts like reeds
(In my eyes) everything about you is just whatever
(From one to ten) I don’t like anything about you
(From your head to your toe), you’re just whatever
 
I have no feelings for you
You’re really just whatever
You have no charm, no attraction
You’re so boring
You’re really just whatever
Whatever you do, my eyes won’t go to you
 
You’re just whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
Really whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
More and more whatever whatever (eh eh eh)
Really whatever whatever
Whatever you do, you’re whatever

Try to hollow out my life

Rushing into the stylish skyscraper
His patron-ish look is my target
Sadistic
How vulgar!
Devouring the costly landscape
I want everything, night view ornaments and all
Romantic
I expect nothing in return
 
Even Sherlock Holmes was intimidated by me
Try to hollow out my life
 
It's always alright, that's alright
I know what you need
How wonderful!
It's top secret
Maybe it's alright, that's alright
Let me see a stolen love
I don't care what becomes of me
I'll take a rain check on making a compromise
 
My aim is to stab the heartless guy who labeled me a withered bitch
Drastic
No hesitation at all
 
Even Friedrich Nietzsche seduced me
Try to hollow out my life
 
It's always alright, that's alright
Take me down right now
What wonders await me?
Maybe it's alright, that's alright
Something is wrong with my love
But it's you who wanted to see me, right?
 
I had only one purpose
The end justifies the means
I totally dazzled your eyes
I keep a snake with sharp fangs in the back of my mind
In a flash, I can kill you in your sleep
 
Turn the emerald green ocean into crimson with my blood
Try to hollow out my life
 
It's always alright, that's alright
Thank you for amusing me
I'm just killing time
Maybe it's alright, that's alright
Now you don't bring me love
I'll never ever see you again
Put it on my tab
Keep the change

Memory

No matter how hard I try to forget you
I can’t erase the memories we shared
I try to watch TV to take my mind off you
But why am I crying over this breakup scene?
I put on the perfume you liked
Wore the dress you said was pretty
And went to the cafe we used to go to a lot
But now you’re not here
I don’t think I’m ready for this thing
I’m not ready, after you left, I’m just a blank sheet of paper
Whatever I do, boy I feel so empty
Me without you, I can’t even imagine
 
I remember the old days, when I watch TV
I remember the old days, when I listen to music
I remember again, when I have a drink
How are you doing these days?
I remember the old days, it’s driving me crazy
I keep remembering because I miss you
Tears fall and memories wash over me
imma sing a song
like this NaNaNaNaNa
 
Making you into a memory (I hate it)
Forgetting you, why is it so hard? (why why why)
Even now, I’m still reminiscing
But love is leaving me, more and more
I don’t even put on make-up anymore
There’s no use
You used to call me pretty
But you’re not here anymore
It’s different from before
Repetition of emptiness
My days that were busy because of you
My days that gave me butterflies
Now have no excitement, zero
It changed, became burnt ashes
 
I remember the old days, when I watch TV
I remember the old days, when I listen to music
I remember again, when I have a drink
How are you doing these days?
I remember the old days, it’s driving me crazy
I keep remembering because I miss you
Tears fall and memories wash over me
imma sing a song
like this NaNaNaNaNa
 
Memories with you
Now become old recollections
But only for me
Do you miss me and think of me too?
 
I remember the old days, when I watch TV
I remember the old days, when I listen to music
I remember again, when I have a drink
How are you doing these days?
I remember the old days, it’s driving me crazy
I keep remembering because I miss you
Tears fall and memories wash over me
imma sing a song
like this NaNaNaNaNa

Mediterranean

I'm human and I know nothing
And maybe I'd be able to tell you more
If I were light shining
In your eyes
If I were a deer or an ash tree,
For you, I'd come down among the people
For you, I want his body
That bothers me less and less
 
(Chorus)
It's good I didn't arise
From some kiss, earlier
Or after your breath
That I'm here, next to you
It's good I got caught up
In this short visit on earth
In the same world with you
Where ever you are, I know you are
 
Because if I were a deer ar an ash tree in the mountain
For you, I'd come down among the people
For you, I want this body
That bothers me less and less
 
(Chorus)
 
Because if I were a deer ar an ash tree in the mountain
Maybe I'd be able to tell you more
This way, I long for this body
In your hands

Air carnation

Like the air carnation,
that's how she was,
just like the flower.
pinned in my heart.
Oh, how much I cried
because she left me!
Like the air carnation,
just like the flower,
that's how she was.
 
In this region,
just like an ombu 1.
alone and without flower,
that's how I was.
And captured by grief,
through the years I lived,
just like an ombú
in this region.
 
And all my branches
were getting dry,
when one afternoon
she looked for my shade.
A bird sung
in my branches,
and the tree, without flowers,
got its bloom.
 
But a happy traveller,
-damn traveller-
crossed the country side,
and, in his arms, she left me,
and I remained
flowerless, once again.
The one that cross was the wind,
the wind of the Pampa 2.
that took her away.
 
(It repeats from the beginning)
 
Like the air carnation,
that's how she was,
just like the flower.

Navigator

Do what you want, but don't deny me
Make an acceptable excuse
You can think what you want, but don't fool yourself
I wasn't born to see the world falls apart
 
I don't need to hear your thoughts
Everything around says that it's the end
Say what you want, but don't wait for me
Cause this time I won't try to convince you of anything
 
I want, uh uh uh
To swim through the waves of happiness
I have, uh uh uh
The strong log like a navigator
I want, uh uh uh
To taste the honey of freedom
I have, uh uh uh
My bare feet like a fisherman
 
You're gonna meet me at the corner
And gonna ask me how I'm doing
I'm just gonna tell you anything
I don't need you to look after me anymore
 
You're gonna watch me walking down the street
I don't have time to waste
Now, my eyes are swimming in other waters
I don't need you to cry for me anymore
 
I want, uh uh uh
To swim through the waves of happiness
I have, uh uh uh
The strong log like a navigator
I want, uh uh uh
To taste the honey of freedom
I have, uh uh uh
My bare feet like a fisherman

You threw me out

You threw me out
You threw me out here
Into this small city
 
With bare feet I stagger around here
You threw me here into the midst of the dead
I have no relatives, I am a stranger
 
With bare feet I stagger around here
I am missing you
 
You are far away, but sorrows are close by

Burning the Ships

I woke up, happily to her
And I gave myself to her darkness
In the clock, time passes
No one is coming to wake me
 
How early it is to die like this
There are so many things left for me to do
Don't suffer, no. That it wasn't worth it.
 
Without understand, the radio even plays
With a voice of a disconnected reality
The cold skin, there won't be any more pain.
I'm killing because of love.
 
My eyelids are getting heavier and heavier
And the curing sentence of the city
Will fill my room
Don't think, no. That it wasn't worth it.
 
A cricket robbed me of my voice
And today it sings to you from the garden
I burned the ships, and I didn't leave
A door to leave.
 
The empty bottle on the light table.
A letter to my lover.
Asking for forgiveness. Don't suffer, no.
Sorry, don't think, no.
Sorry, don't continue, no.
That it wasn't worth it.

A heavy rain's about to fall

Where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Where have you been, my little child?
I climbed to the mountaintop, and further
I went on the main road, and crawled
Into the deep forests, where I hid
Went to the ocean coast that died on me
Went into the grave that's always waiting for me
 
Very soon, very soon, very soon, very soon
A heavy rain's about to fall
 
And what did you see there, my blue-eyed son?
Yes what did you see there my little child?
I saw a fox, and a wolf waiting for him
I saw a golden path, that no man can walk upon
A black wing, flowing with the waters
A man with a hammer, wounding his hands
A saw a dream, walking on crutches
A man without tongue, talking all the time
And a sleeping boy with a rifle and sword
 
Very soon, very soon, yes very soon, very soon
A heavy rain's about to fall
 
What will you do now, my blue-eyed son ?
Yes what will you do now, my little child?
Now I will go down, for the rain is in the storm
Now I will go, deep into the forest
Where there are people without hands
And the shit is rising there, inundating the waters
And dead pigeons, covered with olive leaves
And a hangman's face staring out of every house
There everything is ugly, and a soul without value
The color is black, and the Zero is King
I want to tell, and breathe
And think, and bring it all here
So that everyone can see it
Stand all by myself against the sea that drowned me
And remember the song that I knew and once sang
 
Very soon, very soon, yes very soon, very soon
A heavy rain's about to fall
 
The heaven for height, and the earth for depth, and the heart of kings is unsearchable. (Prov 25:3 KJV)

Ne hagyj el

Mert úgy néz ki, hogy
Többféle jelentés van elrejtve abban amit mondasz, mi az a micsoda?
 
Ha megtalálod a kirakós lábnyomát, kövesd
Az árnyékomat elnyelte a föld,
A fény mögötti kolostorba vonult
 
Csak te, akit nem érek el, tudja a válaszaimat
Szóval mielőtt valami megzavar, mindent tudni szeretnék
 
Most itt vagyok, a múltad és a jövőd közti résben
Ami elmélyül az idő folyásával
 
Ne hagyj el,
Most hiszek és elkezdtem futni előre
Te vagy a szívverésem, nincs vége
 
Nem számít mennyire szakad az eső
Nem számít mennyire fog kifakítani a sötétség
 
Megyek és megmentelek téged
Mert nem vagy egyedül

The crossing

It's this girl
who emerges from slumbering lakes
where green is translucent.
Water turns into swamp and leaves turn grey.
 
And yet everything there
is as we pictured it.
 
We, the offended, we, the frightened,
feeling with our senses the one we feared so much.
 
Freezing and at rest
we let ourselves slide
into the beign who can only embrace us
in order to better smother us.
 
Tears on our cheeks,
the privilege of those who haven't sunk yet.
