Fragments of love

My feelings are always painful and miserable
Now you leave by the door and your footsteps go away
For this love that always cries when we meet
Only I shrug my shoulders and plug my ears to words
 
All came too late, I'm lonely today too
The fragments of a frozen love stick into my cold body
 
A word that it's always disheartening is 'goodbye'
When I start forgetting it, the passage of time carves it in my chest
I was always stumbling hiding my sadness
Only I search for the whereabouts of the love I lost
 
All came too late, I'm lonely today too
The love storm I hoped to end, sticks into my withered heart
 

Secret love of tears

Secret love, even if I'm loved, there are only sighs
Secret love, to touch my sadness
Secret love, even if I'm hurt, there's only tenderness
Secret love, damped in tears even with a kiss
 
On a corner of the room where you used to come and go
Leaning against the wall with no lights turned on
Secret love, without being able to tell my memories to nobody
Secret love, now I look like a husk
 
In front of the door that I opened with the key
With the chin in a hand and no lights turned on
Secret love, without being able to tell my memories to nobody
Secret love, bonds were broken making noise
 

Unconsciously

Unconsciously I liked you
Unconsciously I dreamed of you
Unconsciously I knew your name
Unconsciously I was walking by the city
 
Unconsciously I found your house
Unconsciously I opened the phone book
 
Unconsciously I started to walk with you
Unconsciously time passed
Unconsciously I started to live with you
Unconsciously we couldn't beak up
 

Cool man boogie

In Ginza, Harajuku, Roppongi
Baggy tops and hip bone skirts
(Cool man) I wanna be
(Cool man) I can't be
(Cool man) I gotta be
That's the cause of my problems, right?
 
Afro hair, lame shirts
London boots, three piece suits
Rings, pierces and pendants
Cheeky striped trousers
(Cool man) I wanna be
(Cool man) I can't be
(Cool man) I gotta be
That's the cause of my problems, right?
 
Coo, coo, coo, cool man
 
An empty appearance in the surface
Smoke, mirrors and deception, why?
(Cool man) I wanna be
(Cool man) I can't be
(Cool man) I gotta be
That's the cause of my problems, right?
 
Youngs of now, discotheques
Jitterbug, twist and boogie woogie
All year long from morning to night
Staring at the fashion book
(Cool man) I wanna be
(Cool man) I can't be
(Cool man) I gotta be
That's the cause of my problems, right?
 
Coo, coo, coo, cool man
I dream to be an adoring cool man
 

Success

In the room with the blinds fully open
The summer light surges
Like the coldness of an ice cube
Your words melt tenderly
'You kept me waiting. Will you laugh saying it's a detour?'
If we reached here it's a success, success
A woman waits with the face of yesterday
 
By the window with the blinds half closed
The light interweaves, like a striped pattern
Relaxing on a rocking chair
Only your voice chases me
'You kept me waiting. Only you gave me troubles'
If we reached here it's a success, success
A woman cries with the face of today
 
In the room with the blinds totally down
Light doesn't pass, it's a momentary sea
The afternoon of sighs passes painfully
And I entrust my body to your words
'You kept me waiting. The next harbor doesn't even exist'
If we reached here it's a success, success
A woman carries the face of tomorrow
 

Body and soul

A dog's howl was incessant for a while
When I woke up and looked at the clock
Wasn't the night yet, and without changing of color
The moonlight shines on my hands
 
My words are useless
But I want to believe in warmth
My tears betray me
But we can share tenderness
 
Body and soul, body and soul
Now they melt into one
Woman who sleeps in my arms
 
A siren echoes faintly from far
It's on charge to lower the curtain of the night
Have I recognized in my sleep
Someone clinging to my chest joining her cheeks
 
Time is easy to change
I want to believe in tranquility
To you who don't call it love
I want to be sincere
 
Body and soul, body and soul
Now are one life
Woman who dreams in my arms
 
Body and soul, body and soul
Now they melt into one
Woman who sleeps in my arms
 

When The Moon Is About To Go To Sleep

When the Moon is about to go to sleep
I go flirting
Before I can get to my darling
I must pass by a tavern
 
And the tavern is small, full of smoke
It keeps the memory of old times
Quiet murmur, choosing nostalgic words
An old man plays the cimbalom
 
He quietly plays and secretly cries
And he mentions all the old players
And remembers this old song
'Cand se duce luna la culcare'1
 
Ionel, Ionel, Ionule 2
Girls don't like it
When your drunken lips
Speak of ugly
Ionel, Ionel, Ionule
Girls don't like it
When your drunken strings
Play just about anything
 
The same story goes on for years
Moon's walk does not stop
I still go to those ends
I must visit the same tavern
 
And the tavern is small, full of smoke
It keeps the memory of old times
Quiet murmur, choosing nostalgic words
And our Mirča3 plays the cimbalom
 
He quietly plays and secretly cries
And he mentions all the good players
And remembers this old song
'Cand se duce luna la culcare'
 
Ionel, Ionel, Ionule
Girls don't like it
When your drunken lips
Speak of ugly
Ionel, Ionel, Ionule
Girls don't like it
When your drunken strings
Play just about anything

It's Not My Sunday Today

Today too is a Sunday
Church bells ring from the bell tower
And everything inside me is empty and the way it's not supposed to be
It is not my Sunday today
 
And everything inside me is empty and the way it's not supposed to be
It is not my Sunday today
 
What do I need the church bells
When I don't have you anymore?
I look into the distance and clear up the moonlight
Over your pillow's whiteness in vain
 
I look into the distance and clear up the moonlight
Over your pillow's whiteness in vain
 
My day is daily, my night nightly and I am alone with the song
And you can't hear me anymore
My day is longful, my night is painful and I curse life more and more
And I slowly become friends with glasses
 
Sometimes I play with the sky
I shred the blue cloud with my eye
And angels fall out from it to the ground
I ask them do they know you
 
And angels fall out from it to the ground
I ask them to look after you
 
When winter's blizzards are raging
They turn a wild stream into ice
When destiny points its finger, I will take up my cross
To find the disloyal eyes
 
When destiny points its finger, I will take up my cross
To find the disloyal eyes
 
My day is daily, my night nightly and I am alone with the song
And you can't hear me anymore
My day is longful, my night is painful and I curse life more and more
And I slowly become friends with glasses
 
Today is not my Sunday
 

Arise, Serb

Once again they're throwing us in the pits,
the knives are cutting once again,
women, old, and even kids they're murdering,
a lot of mothers cry sour tears!
 
Arise Serb! It is the last hour!
To find salvation for the Serbian people!
 
They're taking our sisters and raping them,
what good are they shouting,
they wound them in the worst possible way,
making them give birth to young Muslims.
 
Arise Serb! It is the last hour!
To find salvation for the Serbian people!
 
Hey Serb, wherever you are,
what have you in your heart and soul,
history is repeating itself,
again the Serb must pay for everything.
 
Arise Serb! It is the last hour!
To find salvation for the Serbian people!
 
Hey Croats and you Muslims,
your days are numbered!
Don't you touch the Serbs again,
you are guaranteed not to survive.
 
Arise Serb! It is the last hour!
To find salvation for the Serbian people!

• 1. This is probably the closest to the original meaning, but other interpretations include 'You're killing it!'
• 2. Top délire is better translated as 'off the chain', but i preferred to keep this part more 'equirhythmic', as it were. In full, this line could mean 'This mega-groove is off the chain!'

White dove

The mountain peak is all sunshine
The night is on the run, it's far away
As if the wind gave me wings
The rays of the sun lift me up
 
The scent of hay greets me at the meadow
I often go there
A white dove soars above the meadow
A shower of gold rains down around me
 
REFRAIN:
Una Paloma Blanca1
It flies-flies up to the sky
Una Paloma Blanca
It's happy because summer is here
So come with me, love is waiting for you
 
||: I've been the loser many times
A hundred cuffs have held me
But today I've finally found you
And now I haven't any problems
 
||: REFRAIN :||
 
||: So come with me, love is waiting for you :||
 

• 1. Spanish for 'A white dove.'

Today I truly learned

I'm not going to speak, I'm going to do
Because action worth more than a thousand words
I'm not going to think about living
Because only thinking didn't take me anywhere
 
I'm going to feel not to lie anymore
I'm going to act not to fake anymore
I'm going to be just to be
I'm not going to be just to have
 
Today I learned to fly
Without even moving myself
From my place
 
I'm going to feel not to lie anymore
I'm going to fake not to act anymore
I'm going to feel
 
Being just to be
Or not being to have
 

Gejalar-Nights

Without you, I cry at night, my love
I will follow your vacancy at night
In the fire of love my soul burns at night
I hug our loneliness at night
Who will understand me now?
Who will wipe my tears
This pain will be with me until my death
I know it will take my life
Don't go, stay, my eyes are looking for you
Don't go, I have word in my heart
You hurt my heart a lot
See how patient I am
Why are you leaving me?
You leave your love like this
Do not believe that I can laugh without you
Memories will kill me ...
 

Come Back

I forgot everything
And I forgave you for everything long time ago
Come back, come back, call me by my name
And you'll live inside me again
And if not, if not
Then let's meet by mistake
I forgot everything
And I forgave you for everything long time ago
 
And I love you so much, so much
Love is only an echo of a distant thunder
Compared to this feeling
And I love you so much, so much
Love is only an echo of a distant thunder
Compared to this feeling
 
Inflamed longing
Has burnt the edge of my heart
And a tear like a cloud
Has washed away the shadow of pain
I love you so much, so much
That it seems I can ignite
An immensive fire of feeling inside you
But that gulf, that gulf
 
And I love you so much, so much
Love is only an echo of a distant thunder
Compared to this feeling
 
And I love you so much, so much
Love is only an echo of a distant thunder
Compared to this feeling
 
And I love you so much, so much
Love is only an echo of a distant thunder
Compared to this feeling
 

One Day I Was Sitting In The Fruit Garden

Oi, one day i was sitting in the fruit garden,
a lad passed by and looked at me:
'Good afternoon, you beautiful girl! {biss}
 
Oi, i never saw such a young girl like you,
White and rosy, with black eyes.'
He said these words and went on his way. {biss}
 
Oi, the poor me was staring at the valley,
oi, i was crying while staring at the valley,
and when i went to sleep i had a dream,
i was afraid that i would get married.
 

You were dancing, no, you were dancing

You were dancing, no, you were dancing,
I remember exactly, there were little vodka and big skies, yeah,
By God, it was summer. And there was blue flashlight until dawn.
You have forgotten, but it happened, and more you were singing.
The leaves were rustling. On what date? That's not the point.
That's not the point!
And the matter is, that I lie shamelessly and it's so badly, that
You can fall in love with lies and lies.
And life passes by.
 

A Hundred Years

Looking into the most gracious eyes,
I ask you if you love me,
And you say right away: 'forever',
But I don’t want that much, no...
 
A hundred years,
Scorching hot ones,
That’s the maximum plan
If you say 'yes'.
 
A hundred winters,
Snowy and sunny ones,
Let’s have finally added
To those summer days.
 
And we still have to mention
A hundred springs,
And then a hundred autumns
And a hundred autumnal rainfalls.
 
A hundred years –
So think it over before you agree,
Because as for me,
A hundred years will do.
A hundred years will do.
 
When I already know that you love me
And when I ask you if you won’t betray me,
You say right away: 'ah, never!'
But I don’t want that much, no...
 
A hundred years,
Scorching hot ones,
That’s the maximum plan
If you say 'yes'.
 
A hundred winters,
Snowy and sunny ones,
Let’s have finally added
To those summer days.

The Survivors

Another year that I didn't get sick
That I was loved
That I didn't get poorer
Another year that I have my home
And my people
That I dream...
That I make plans.
 
Another year that I went to the theater
And listened to records,
And watched movies that moved me.
Another year that I traveled
And worked
That I wrote and tore up
And didn't despair
 
Another year
That I found people
That inspired me.
And I kept them.
And they let me.
That I didn't lose my way.
And I accomplished -
At least one goal out of the many.
That I observed
And I reflected
And I wondered
And I understood
For however long I could,
Whatever it was I understood -
In whatever way I understood,
As much as I understood it.
 
That I opened my eyes.
Even if I lost pieces of me
At borders and seas...
And the losses helped me grow
Even if my hopes turned into
Part of the seas
- one with the seas.
 
Another year that I can
Count the blessings with certainty
Another year that the little things
Are the most important.
Another year that was full,
that in my own writing,
I record myself in the survivors list.
 

Now the earth awakens

The sea sleeps in blue
Life sprout on the earth
And the sky is,
And the sky is dreaming of tomorrow.
There you see, the reborn earth is,
welcoming the morning of awakening.
 
Swim and kick the waves.
Run and kick the earth.
 
Because I like the earth so much.
Because the dawn is so beautiful.
 
Basking in the morning light,
Two lives are met.
And the love is,
And the love is sprouting in my heart.
There you see, two reborn people are,
welcoming the morning of hope.
 
Sing and voice together.
Dance and cross your shoulders.
 
Because I like the earth so much.
Because the dawn is so beautiful.
 
Get angry and step on the ground.
Start laughing and clap your hands.
 
Because I like the earth so much.
Because the dawn is so beautiful.
 
'In July 2008 A.D., Mankind was facing the verge of extinction.
With super-magnetic weapons that far exceed nuclear weapons,
Half of the world has destroyed within an instant.
The earth was hit by earth crustal movements.
The earth's axis was twisted.
All five continents were torn apart and sank into the sea.'
(Based on the book, 'The incredible tide' by Alexander Key.)
 

In praise of having a bad opinion about yourself

The buzzard doesn’t have any thing to feel guilty about.
Scruples are unknown to a black panther.
Piranhas don’t doubt the rightness of their doings.
A rattlesnake accepts himself without any doubts.
A self-criticizing jackal doesn’t exist.
Locust, alligator, trichina and gadfly
live the way they live and are happy about it.
 
The heart of an orca weights above two hundred pounds,
but as to the feeling it weightless is.
 
Nothing more animal
than a clean conscience
on the third planet of Sol.
 

Bolóndozás főcímdal

Három kis árva:
Egy, ket, há
Otthon vagy család nélkül
Míg a ló azt nem mondta:
'Éljetek velem!'
És most van egy új családunk
Nevetünk és tanulunk
És sokat szeretünk
Minden nap egy új álom
Elveszettek voltunk, most megtaláltak
És bolóndozunk!
 

Ne hagyd abbba a táncot, míg le nem hull a függöny

Az élet egy végeérhetetlen műsor, barátom
Egy csűr-csavaros, kacifántos műsor
A közönség mindenki, akit ismersz, barátom
Hagy nekik egy mosolyt, amikor elmész!
 
Elhiheted, te vagy a sztár, hát ne feledd
Milyen szórakoztató vagy!
Menj oda fel és adj bele mindent
És ne hagyd abba a táncot, ne hagyd abba a táncot míg le nem hull a függöny!
 
Egy rohadt kis fogaskerék vagy, testvérem
Olyan erők forgatnak, amiket nem értesz!
Az élet egy keserű, csúnya hasbavágás, uram
Miért nem adod el a szomorúságot, mint terméket?
 
Fesd ki az arcod és fésüld ki a sörényed és találj egy helyet, ahol felvághatod a fájdalmad
Adagokba, amiket megvehetünk a plázában!
És ne hagyd abba a táncot...
Nem, nem hagyhatod abba a táncot, amíg le nem hull a függöny
Egy nagy frászt!
 
A mai nap a nap, amikor megvan a szikrád
És megtalálod a módját, hogy nyomot hagyj
És hogy a piciny neved felkerüljön arra a falra
 
Hát ne hagyd abba a táncot, szívem ne hagyd abba a pörgést!
Ne hagyd abba az éneklést pajti

Because It's Spring

What to say or what to do ?
I'm just fluttering
From the day I saw you, day by day
It's just my heart beating
 
Ooh- spread to you
Ooh- my day
Ooh- filled with little waits
 
Till the night I fluttered because it was you
Heartbeat~
I get upset for no reason because of my embarrassing heart
 
A day that feels good because it's you
My face turns red
I secretly spoke out of my shameful heart
The cherry blossoms blowing in the wind are pretty
It's spring
 
Ooh- spread to you
Ooh- my day
Ooh- filled with little waits
 
The night I fluttered because it was you
Heartbeat~
I get upset for no reason because of my embarrassing heart
 
A day that feels good because it's you
My face turns red
The words that came out secretly because of my embarrassing heart
The cherry blossoms blowing in the wind are pretty
 
In my boring time that repeats every day
You were with me
This special night when I met you
Me me me
 
Till the night I fluttered because it was you
Heartbeat
I get upset for no reason because of my embarrassing heart
 
A day that feels good because it's you
My face turns red
I secretly spoke out of my shameful heart
The cherry blossoms blowing in the wind are pretty
It's spring
 

The headhunter of Sleepy Hollow

Come on closer!
I'll tell you now
What the monsters do
On dark nights
 
After midnight all the restless spirits
Fueled by evil anger, turn on the living
Some of them have enormous horns
Others make you bleed with terrible claws
 
Shaggy horrors
Their fur is sagging
Some monsters' skin is even lacking
 
The time to show bravery, my friend
Is when you see a Halloween night event
 
Today, down in the valley pal, they're having a ball
Creatures of the night party, songs fly afar
It's freezing cold and horses neigh
The headhunter of Sleepy Hollow is on his way
 
It's him
How grim
Your head is in for a trim
 
In his armpit, his ugly head
He carries nothing on his neck
A meek vampire, a thin Moon
Oh, my lamp runs away so soon
 
Scared are the living
Scared are the dead
 
Now come and bow
That's all he wants
 
The edge of his drawn sword
Is covered in blood
 
His will is resolute
He's hellbent
 
He'll give anything
To get your head
 
In his belt, there's a sharp sword
In the dark, he rides his horse
Darkness... and darkness...
Tonight they both wait in the heart of the valley
 
Oh, the one who talks to it's head is reckless
Tonight you could become headless
Galloping through a dark forest
It's the headless headhunter
 
Run if you can! Your life is at stake
He knows by heart what role to take
Today earth and sky fears his name
He's the monster king of Halloween
 
If you wouldn't believe my horrible tale
I saw this monster myself a year ago
I didn't dally long but got on my horse quick
And galloped toward the bridge on the creek
 
Because once you're over the wooden arch
The ghost will stop it's march
 
So, any who still sets out at night
The bridge is where you should ride
The headhunter roams again down there
The monster king, take care, take care!
 
Run if you can! Your life is at stake
He knows by heart what role to take
Today earth and sky fears his name
He's the monster king of Halloween
 

Sleep

God sleeps
And his children start a fire
Which they cannot extinguish
And he will never be able to awaken
 
Every tragedy divides
Before our very eyes
Those things which ought to be loved
 
And through this endless night
In despair
He can see the dawn
Which will awake him the next morning
 

Sparkling Skin

Autumn is coming very soon
I've gotta prepare my winter clothes
But
it's not the same as last year...
 
I don't mean anything particularly luxurious
I just wanna stand out a little
'cause I need to get ahead
around here
 
Christmas
Christmas
Christmas
What will I do?
Preparing too early is just fine
 
It's nice to go all out!
It's nice to go all out!
My sort of reasoning is
simple enough
 
It's nice to go all out!
It's nice to go all out!
'Cause
my skin is sparkling
 
He's coming very soon
I've gotta hand him a letter
But
are the characters and sentences weird?
 
'I don't particularly have to do it today...'
I feel a little timid
Oh dear,
my mind is made up
 
I'll give him it
I'll give him it
I'll give him it
My heart is pounding
Somehow, he's got a great facial expression...
 
It's nice to say it outright!
It's nice to say it outright!
This sort of youthful honesty
is charming
 
It's nice to say it outright!
It's nice to say it outright!
'Cause
my smile is sparkling
 
It's nice to say it outright!
It's nice to say it outright!
This sort of youthful honesty
is charming
 
It's nice to say it outright!
It's nice to say it outright!
'Cause
my smile is sparkling
 

Sweet Love

Sweet love - to love, like I love you
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
 
Since you have been around
I only think of you
You take up all my time
You're all that I expect1
I so need to love you
to understand you, to be loved
to take you in my arms
And surely you know why
 
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
 
We must walk hand in hand
to better get one another2
to avoid forgetting
all that comes from the past
And once again
It might be the last time
It is easy for you
and it is, for me, too3
 
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
 
Love doesn't often come
knocking at the right time4
When it does come to you
' gotta know how to receive it5
We have that special chance
since we are together
No need to ponder what to do
just let Time do its thing6
 
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
Sweet love - to love, like I love you
 

• 1. you to be
• 2. comprehend what the other means
• 3. lit. 'It is easy for me
• 4. implied 'knocking on one's door'
• 5. here, the omission of the 'you' works both to mirror the original ('faut', short for 'il faut') and to round the syllables to 8, instead of an uneven 9
• 6. lit. one must give time for Time to act

The Waterfall

A drop of water stands alone
come join the others in this call
together we will turn the stone
together as a waterfall
 
Surely now our road is long
remember hardships of the past
but moving makes the water strong
no rock was ever made to last
 
As water turns these walls to sand
though we are weak we understand
it's time to heed the water's call
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the waterfall!
 
For Europe has seen two world wars
a third would surely end us all
Be strong, believe, don't change your course
(love force is like a waterfall) (no rock could stand the waterfall)
 
While hungry children cry in vain
a banquet's set with arsenals
the tablecloth with blood is stained
we'll wash it in the waterfall
 
As water turns stonewalls* to sand *[these walls]
though we are weak we understand
it's time to heed the water's call
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the waterfall!
 
Monopoly the ice-cold game
where every figure stands alone
the winner always wants the same
but power turns them into stone
 
Come show your strength come show your grace
come dancing at our festive ball
we're still part of the human race
no rock could stand the waterfall
 
As water turns stonewalls* to sand *[these walls]
though we are weak we understand
it's time to heed the water's call
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the water -
no rock could stand the waterfall!
 

Don't Tell

If your heart is close to breaking
Don't tell
Because the love of your breast is cooling
Don't tell,
And if your hopes are shattering,
Don't tell
