Goldfinch

I am my father’s goldfinch
Fifth child, first son
He used to kiss me on the forehead
He baptized me with white wine
 
When he let me fly from his palm
I flew high
To a distant and alien world
I found a wife as beautiful as a flower
 
---Refrain---
May the deep sea dry out
I flew across it, it nearly suffocated me
And each time a wave hits me
My heart lets out a scream for her
Like an olive branch in a gust of bora
I can still hear my father’s words...
 
'My son' he said
'Life didn't end with her
You do not have a lot of time
Find yourself a wife from our land'
 
I proposed in spring
Got married in summer
By winter I was dried out
I did not love her at all
 
---Refrain---
 
She gave birth to two sons
Like two beautiful falcons
And I worked as hard as a worm
As for my children, my bloodline
 
I remember her last words
'God is calling me, I must go'
And she let out three tears
For the three birds she loved
 
---Refrain---
 
I am my father’s goldfinch
 

I Kiss Your Hand

If heaven would treat me with a woman like you
And to ravel wet hair
With long red nails
I would be silent like a fish
Is this necessary for me
To hold my vine glass like a clown?
 
How to explain that to people
That I am mouse in her mouth
Cause when it takes you for a ride
This beast takes your mind and soul
And it is called love
 
[Refrain]
I kiss your hand
I kiss the word from your mouth
Cause I sense trouble by the sound of it
It will not pass us by
 
And when the winds that blow stop
I will spread love to your door
You move into my soul
You will be safe there forever
 
[Refrain]
I kiss your hand
I kiss the word from your mouth
Cause I sense trouble by the sound of it
It will not pass us by
 

Why are You Angry With Me, Heaven?

If I would fill up a bag with the most beautiful stars
To put them one by one on the table in front of her
And to tighten my heart inside a vice because of her
Heaven, would you hear about my pain?
 
God, if I were to build stairs all the way to the heaven,
With what prayer would I come stand before you?
To calm the sea, for the field to be fertile
God, to give me back all that is mine.
Why are you angry with me, heaven?
When she's the one who has the last word for me...
It is too tight for the heart inside the chest,
It will follow her where ever she will go.
Why are you angry with me, heaven?
When she's the one who has the last word for me...
I won't bring her back
Neither with a tear, nor with a song
 

Only Love

You're the wish in my dream
Your love intoxicates
Inside me a candle
Which you lit burns
 
Believe me when I say
That you're meant just for me
 
(Chorus)
All I have in my soul and heart I give to you
Because you're the one meant for me
Let angels now truthfully sing
Because you will be the only love forever
 
I think only of you
And the words of love
You can recognize it my eyes -
That you're my dearest one
 
(Chorus)
 
When hard sorrows come over you
Know that I will always be here
When they break, let them break me
Let them not touch you
 
And now I'm ready
For a lifetime next to you
May joy take us to heaven
If it's necessary I will give
Last drop of love
Just don't ever forget
