BWV 248 II, 8 Chorale: Look, there lies in the dark stable.

8. Chorale
Look, there lies in the dark stable
one who has dominion over all!
Where once an ox sought food
now rests the Virgin's child.

BWV 248 Christmas Oratorio II, 9: Then go there, you shepherds, go.

Recitativ B
Then go there, you shepherds, go,
that you may see the wonder:
And if you find the son of the Highest
lying in a hard manger,
then sing to him in his cradle
in a sweet tone
and with the whole choir
this song for his rest!

BWV 248, II, 4 Recitative B: What God promised to Abraham.

What God promised to Abraham
He now allows to the band of shepherds
To be shown as fulfilled.
A shepherd had all beforehand
to learn from God.
And now also a shepherd must of the deed
that was promised in the past
first know of the fulfilment.

BWV 245, 20 Ária T: Figyeld csak, hogy az ő vérszínezte.

Figyeld csak, hogy az ő vérszínezte háta
mindenestül
az égbolthoz hasonló!
Ott, amint bűneink
özönének árja lezúdult,
ragyog a mindennél szebb szivárvány,
mint Isten kegyelmének jele.

BWV 245 20 Aria T: Consider how his back so stained with bleeding.

Consider how his back so stained with bleeding
In every portion
Doth heaven imitate,
On which, when once the waves and waters
From our own Flood of sin have settled,
The world's most lovely rainbow, arching,
As God's own sign of blessing stands!

Good Morning Child

Good morning to the child I love. Good morning!
The sun’s rays are stealing into the street
And before the day erupts in its glory
Let’s talk – man to man
 
You learn to walk
Step after step, fall and then
Cry a little, forget, getup, and hold on
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of steps
will be larger than
The number of failures
This way is best
 
You begin to speak
A full sentence quietly, smile
A few words in reverse order
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of sentences
will be larger than
The number of silences
Also to be silent is good
 
Now I am done
You lay your head down breathing slowly
Close your eyes in trust,
No longer see the dangers.
You need to guard your balance
Always guard your balance
That the number of hugs
will be larger than
The number of abandonments.
This is worthwhile and good.
Rest your head
Always this is best.

I think I'm gradually becoming an adult (28)

The older I get
The more I understand the world
But still, was not knowing the world better for me?
 
Looking out at the night view that’s
Completely different to the inside of my room with the lights turned off
The words I murmur quietly
 
I guess I’m slowly becoming an adult
I can’t remember
What it was that
I wanted I’m scared now
Where did the fragments of my dream go?
 
I’m breathing but
It feels like my heart isn’t working
Yeah, now, you see, to become an adult Is to become an adult
Who finds it too hard to hold on to a dream
 
Thought it would change once I turned twenty
Thought it would change once I graduated
Shit, if I turn thirty like this, this
Okay, so how did I change?
 
Sometimes, all of a sudden, without reason, tears fall
The life that I hoped for, the life I wanted, that kind of average life
Whatever happens, I don’t care anymore
 
Just one day without any concerns
Just one day without any worries
To live, to live, to live
 
I guess I’m slowly becoming an adult
I can’t remember
What it was that I wanted
I’m scared now
Where did the fragments of my dream go?
 
I’m breathing but
My heart feels like it’s not working
Yeah, now, you see, to become an adult
Is to become an adult who finds it too hard to hold on to a dream

aki bepólyálva
fekszik a jászolban.

The Working Song

Come, friends, and together we'll hum the Working Song
With loud and clear voices
Roll up your sleeves for a successful cleaning
And let's start with the kitchen
As we sing along!
 
Trill out loud, in the tub as you scrub many stains
Washing down a hairball is also good
And so we hum the Working Song
 
So we sing and never cease
Together we will beat it
With a hose, the toilet
we will scrub
 
It's so freeing to hum together
La-la-la-dum-dum-dum
And we've also emptied the vacuum
How fun it is to sing the Working Song
It's the Working Song
 
Oh, I was left all alone
When will my love
come back to me?
For now, I'll stay here
So why give up
on an experience or two?
Hey, the stovetop!
 
This is how you clean while humming a song that is dedicated to work
The filth is a long time fact
We'll finish up with love every little chore
Guys, take another breath
We'll sing along to work
 
With the laundry detergent, come and clean
another stinky shirt and sock
Sing along
And if you don't sing, then hum
We'll finish singing the Working Song!

You, true Son of God and Mary

You, true Son of God and Mary,
You, King of all the chosen,
how sweet to us is Your word of live,
by which the earliest patriarchs already
counted years as well as days,
that Gabriel joyfully
promised there in Bethlehem!
O sweet delight, o bread of heaven,
that neither grave, danger or death
can tear from our hearts.

Awake, awake lost sheep

Awake lost sheep
set yourselves free from sin's sleep
and turn over a new leaf soon!
Awake before the trombone rings out
which you terribly calls from the grave
on Judgment Day before the Lord!

As long as there is a God in heaven

As long as there is a God in heaven
who soars above all the clouds,
such torment will endure:
cold and heat will torture them,
fear, hunger, horror, fire, and lightning
and yet not utterly destroy them.
For this pain would only end,
when God no longer is eternal.

I Must Have Loved You

You rise up in the nostalgic sky
digging out my heart and making me cold
I put together in my memory the pieces of you
in the end I need you
 
It was difficult to hold back because you made me do
something I hated to death
because you left from me
even though we were inextricably linked
you should be the one who's in pain
take with you even a little bit of sadness
because I'm faltering right now
because I can't be without you
 
I hate you and hate you, I miss you and miss you
I hate to forget, come back to me
 
If I count backwards the past days
will I be able to see you?
quite a lot
I must have loved you
I must have loved you
 
The world is dyed blue
when you stretch out your hands to me
I'm cold as if I'm naked
probably you are the one who blown this
 
Did you come because you missed me?
you'll hug me right?
a wind that resembles you
brushes past me
 
A night that can't cover you, it takes me
to the end of the deep midnight
under the sun that rises difficultly
your bare scent glimmers
I hold my breath and close the eyes
I cut off this endless repetition
no matter how much I try to hold back
I can't do anything else besides wandering to find you
 
I hate you and hate you, I miss you and miss you
I hate to forget, come back to me
 
If I count backwards the past days
will I be able to see you?
quite a lot
I must have loved you
I must have loved you
 
At the end of this wait, if you come
I'll gather my whole heart and give it to you
 
Even if it'll take time, if you promise me
I'll stay
in this place
I will wait for you
I will wait for you
 
If this pain is you
then I want this as well
thank you for making me
not being able to love again
 
Someday we will meet each other
and once we remember this
 
smile without saying anything
and give me a pat to the shoulder

Whose breath are you? *

She's a new thing / My heart is ready for falling in love with her /
She's simple yet beautiful
Does such a lady exist? Really?
The good thing is that I know she'll stay with me
to prove that in my life,
she'll be number one forever. Is it possible? Could this be real?
Carve your love on my heart. Does such a wonderful thing exist? Am I not dreaming?
Whose breath are you my love?
Put an end to the distance and come close
Your name is written on my heart
Whose breath are you my dear?
Everyone knows me as a logical guy, but I am crazy about you
I love you. I can't go on without you
----------------
----------------
Your eyes are exactly as everyone describes
These eyes are all mine, I love them
My heart doesn't beat without you
Does a love of life similar to you exist?
Your words sit directly on the bottom of my heart
How can I talk about your excellence?
I would give up everything to have you
This much of dependency is unbelievable
This much of emotional dependency....
Whose breath are you my love?
Put an end to the distance and come close
Your name is written on my heart
Whose breath are you my dear?
Everyone knows me as a logical guy, but I am crazy about you
I love you. I can't go on without you

The smell of rain

Oh that the smell of rain permeates through your air
Remember those springs that became autumn at your feet*
They became autumn at your feet, but I believed it was spring
Shadows of your love didn't remain in my mind
 
Except for your sadness I have no witness for the state of my heart
Oh the light of my eyes in this dark night
My eyes will always be on your path until you come
My garden, my spring, my paradise, where are you?
 
My dearest, where are you?
Where are you?
Without you my heart is broken
My head leaned on my sad knees, I sat in the corner
I extinguished the fire in my soul like the throat tired from the tune
Left to stare at the path that went to nowhere
Oh familiar flower
I am anxious, come
 
Oh, this sorrow of separation

Nostalgic Autumn

In this season without you,
loneliness gets longer
I touch up on my clothes
and walk down the street
But now it’s
the cold autumn
 
I'm afraid I will crush the leaves with my feet
just like my heart
I carefully walked
But why are tears flowing?
 
I think I’m feeling lonely in the fall
tututu
I keep thinking of you
tututu
Like the falling leaves
Tears fall as well
wooo
 
The words, I only have you
tututu
I wanted to tell you in person
But I’m still alone
Waiting for you
woo
 
After a long time,
the memories fade
I write a message, don’t be any more late,
please come back
Then I erase it then I write it
then I erase it again
 
I hope winter is pushed back,
I hope the fall gets extended
I hope the air won’t get too cold
because you used to say
you don’t like the cold
 
I think I’m feeling lonely in the fall
tututu
I keep thinking of you
tututu
Like the falling leaves
Tears fall as well
woo
 
The words, I only have you
tututu
I wanted to tell you in person
But I’m still alone
Waiting for you
woo
 
If only I could hear your voice
saying you’d come back some day
I could do things
that aren’t easy,
things that I can’t forget
 
I think I love you,
tututu
I keep thinking of you
tututu
You pass by me like the wind
Where did you go?
woo
 
Saying let’s fall in love
tututu
I wanted to say it while holding you
So I’m alone again today
Waiting for you
wooo
 
What can I fill up
my empty heart?
I think I’m feeling lonely in the fall
ho ho

Good Troubles

In my town there were two maidens
Two beautiful twin maidens.
They were always so alike,
So alike were the maidens.
 
And I've loved them both, O God,
That one was mine and the other was mine,
That's how good troubles came my way
They were two and neither of them knew
One about the other, one about the other.
 
I took one to the mountains
To see the sun rising
And [I took] the other to the forest
To watch the sun vanishing.
 
And I've loved them both, O God,
That one was mine and the other was mine,
That's how good troubles came my way
They were two and neither of them knew
One about the other, one about the other.
 
How the days go by so fast
And how the night only goes shorter,
And the angels already signal me -
What shall I do, which one should I choose?
 
I've loved them both, O God,
That one was mine and the other was mine,
That's how good troubles came my way
They were two and neither of them knew
One about the other, one about the other.

Idiot

{First Verse}
 
Drunkard drinking his cup in a bar, troubled consoling his troubles
Life has passed, he missed the bus and didn't pay the shop's debts
Returing in the dark, secretly to home because in the neighbor, he is wanted and debted
And the neighbor's daughter is beautiful in his eyes however she went with the million's owner
 
Four beers and house essentials, the salary went between bus fees and soap
Forgetting the female and forgetting to have a children, not even ' where're you hubby ? ' in the phone
Not a suit nor a flowers bouquet, even in his coldness, he can't find a warm cuddle
Late at night and he missed the bus, four beers and the drugs are olives
 
And he wants to sing and sing and sing
When life will smile at me ?
When life will be sweet with me ?
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot
 
{Second Verse}
 
The Breakfast, a black coffee and a cigarette and it's crowded whether you are student or an employee
And the neighbor's daughter passed by him, he wanted to speak out but couldn't find the words
Neither finding his cents nor his dinars, lucky the one who speaks and his pockets are filled
And he can't find a heart, he found____ and_____ and the Moujira¹ rode in a BM²
 
Not a building permit, oh mother nor building his house, seeing his hair becoming white with days
Running after the life's bread and couldn't find his worth, people became cheap and the prices has risen
Sitting in the bar, thinking about his fate and the neighbor's daughter who didn't give him a like
And he liked the intoxication and he missed his bus, four beers and the drugs are illusions
 
And he wants to sing and sing and sing
When life will smile at me ?
When life will be sweet with me ?
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot
 
{Third Verse}
 
Not a good news nor a morale's boost and the salary goes before it comes
Not a message nor voicemail, not ' Where're you hubby ?' nor ' Where're you sweetheart ? '
And days goes by, he becomes suffocated and the bread he chases becomes expensive
And the neighbor's daughter is absent and her absence was for too long, she came back with a man and two childrens
 
A ghazelle lost in the jungle and a hyena looking for a soft meat
And hearts become like clay, sometimes it hardens and sometimes it melts
And human becomes cheap and the dinar went down, follow like a cow and laugh like ' The Laughing Cow* '
And as usual, he missed his bus, the bar closed its doors and they told him : Goodnight
 
And he wants to sing and sing and sing
When life will smile at me ?
when life will be sweet with me ?
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot
And living like an idiot
They want you to live like an idiot

told you so

look here, look here, look here
i've been thinking of you
look here, look here, look here
we ran into each other
 
i don't think it's just a coincidence
but maybe that's just me
 
it seems like you're listening to me
even if it feels strange, i keep looking at you
it felt like a coincidence for a moment
i look and look and look at you
 
when i was breathless with pain
and when my heart was full
just like today
you were always by my side
 
to you who always felt it too
to you, to you, to you
 
look here, look here, look here
i've been thinking of you
look here, look here, look here
we ran into each other
 
i don't think
it's just a coincidence
my heart and yours
 
the familiar feeling passes
as if i'm someone else
my face that you see
isn't at ease
 
that strange feeling in my heart
to you, to you, to you
 
look here, look here, look here
i've been thinking of you
look here, look here, look here
we ran into each other
 
i don't think
it's just a coincidence
my heart and yours
are the same
 
it's not summer
but why do i feel warm when i see you?
there's so many people
but why do i only see you?
 
all of my days
are following you
my heart and my eyes
see you everyday
 
look here, look here, look here
look here, look here, look here
look here, look here, look here
look here, look here, look here
 
i don't think
it's just a coincidence
my heart and yours

Rivals of destiny

A new adventure, a new day
New tasks, one after the other
The duty doesn't let us rest
There's still a lot to do for us
 
No, no way is too far away for us
Because we manage to do everything side by side
We stand close together
And go through ice and flames
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Because the destiny wants it so
 
No questions remain open
You're what leads me forwards
Just how can it be?
The power's in the two of us
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Because the destiny wants it so
Pokémon
 
You're my right hand
You're my left
You give me the power
Not to sink in the chaos
Ooh - Wherever I fight
Ooh - Wherever you are
Ooh - We sense together that everything's alright
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Doing better than just watching
Because the destiny wants it so

Running Away from it All


Sometimes I asked for guidance
For you to give me some good advice or just a picture
And I would find myself again with a question
That has no answer
And my heart has been through days
In which I didn't know what was going on inside
Trying to overcome the obstacles now
Through the sound of that old tune
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in, running away from it all
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in and ran away from it all
 
And my heart has been through years
Which carry all the stories along with me
Trying to gain strength from all the barriers
Through the sound of that old tune
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in, running away from it all
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in and ran away from it all
 
When the time passed by
A strong memory always stayed in my mind
How I would stand alone in front of a mirror, singing
Songs of love
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in, running away from it all
 
And when dad couldn't talk to me
I would keep it all in
Inside a room that wasn't so big anyway
How I shut myself in and ran away from it all

Song of the Work and the Labor

Who shall save us from hunger?
Who shall feed us plenty of bread?
And who shall give us a glass of milk to drink?
Whom to thank, whom to bless? –
The work and the labor!
 
Who shall give us coverage in the cold?
And who shall give us light in the darkness?
Who shall draw the water from the well?
Whom to thank, whom to bless? –
The work and the labor!
 
And who planted trees in the garden,
For the fruit and the shade, every species and kind,
And in the fields had sown grain?
Whom to thank, whom to bless? –
The work and the labor!
 
Who made us a roof-covered area,
A fence for the garden, borders for the vineyard,
And who troubled and who took care
Of the Shabbat, of the holday?
Whom to thank, whom to bless? –
The work and the labor!
 
Therefore we work, therefore we labor
Always on each day of the week.
Heavy is the burden, pleasant is the burden!
And at times of leisure we sing aloud
Songs of gratitude, songs of blessing
For the work and the labor!

For ever following the sun

Hot day,
Magic day,
Naive day
We went with the sun
In the end,
Goldy day,
Good night
We had last night.
 
Morning is rising,
Infront of the sea,
From there,
The day is entering the gate
In the window,
Oak tree,
Curtain,
Were broken with the sunrise,
 
Yes, yes, yes, yes!
 
For ever following the sun,
For ever following the light,
The sun is marking my day,
And my heart is a bird.
 
For ever following the sun,
For ever following the light,
The sun is marking my day,
And my heart is a bird.
 
Hey man,
Get up, you slept,
Doesnt stop,
The spirit of the blue,
Rise up your head,
The light is getting closer,
The light is flowing,
Towards the doorstep,
 
Yes, yes, yes, yes!
 
For ever following the sun,
For ever following the light,
The sun is marking my day,
And my heart is a bird.
 
For ever following the sun,
For ever following the light,
The sun is marking my day,
And my heart is a bird.

For When We Come


Time scares the years away
And puts some wisdom in the heart
But there are things it's yet to tell me
Will another rose bloom for me
Has an old spark been ignited within me
Is there an answer waiting for me at the end of the road
 
And how would we know
If there is hope
For when we come, for when we come
We'll find an answer
 
Where does the track lead
Where does the prayer go
And who will answer the question and who will hear me
And who will open up their heart for me
And if I'll go, where would I reach
Is there an answer waiting for me at the end of the road.
 
And how would we know...
 
It's just me and it's just you
And it's a lot and it's so little
And how can we know if our lives did not go in vain
Have we worked not for nothing
Will our home not be destroyed
Will the love live on after we're gone.
 
And how would we know...

I Did Not Achieve the Light by Taking

I did not achieve the light by taking,
Nor did I inherit it from my father,
But from my own rock and stone I have pecked it
And carved it out of my own heart.
 
A single spark is hiding within the stone of my heart,
A tiny spark - but it is all mine,
I haven't borrowed it from another, nor stole it -
For it is mine and from me it came.
 
And neath the hammer of my big troubles
My heart had burst, the rock of my strength,
That spark has flown, sprayed unto my eye,
And from my eye into my rhyme.
 
And from my rhyme it shall flee into your hearts,
And in your own fire you inflame it, and ignore,
And I, with my own flesh and blood
For the fire I shall make restitution.
