Emeld fel szarvaid

Égess el minden félelmet
Minden kételyt
Mint egy hamvasztás
Üvölts minden himnuszt
És kövesd vakmerő vágyaidat
Vedd vissza a koronát
Ami a kapu előtt lóg
Készülj a menetedre
Célozz be
Mert a szív egy katona
Aki sosem tér le az útról
 
Emeld hát fel szarvaid
Emeld őket magasra
Hadd szárnyaljanak
Hadd repüljenek
Át a mennyek kapuján
És tovább
Hadd uralkodjanak
Emeld fel szarvaid
 
Énekelj minden versszakot
Minden prédikációt
A meg nem hallott halottakért
Kiálts a háztetőkről
Amíg átélsz minden egyes szót
 
Mert az inga kileng
Azokért, akik mernek várni
Húson és csonton áthatolva
Ahová semmi nem jut át
 
Kövesd hát az igazi északot
Az úton, ami
Elvezet téged
 
Emeld hát fel szarvaid
Emeld őket magasra
Hadd szárnyaljanak
Hadd repüljenek
Át a mennyek kapuján
És tovább
Hadd uralkodjanak
Emeld fel szarvaid
 
Felejts el minden félelmet, ami meggyőzött arról
Hogy oltsd ki a saját fényedet
Mutass meg minden hibát, minden heget
Amit ez a világ elrejtetett
Az elől, aki vagy
Az elől, aki vagy
 
Emeld hát fel szarvaid
Emeld őket magasra
Hadd szárnyaljanak
Hadd repüljenek
Át a mennyek kapuján
És tovább
Hadd uralkodjanak
Emeld fel szarvaid
Hadd uralkodjanak
Emeld fel szarvaid
Hadd uralkodjanak
Emeld fel szarvaid

Promise nothing

We are only sixteen, but grown-up inside
You had loads of pain and I was unfree
The best that has happened is that I looked in your direction
We said we would last forever
 
We would never become like them, do you remember?
I have never regretted that we swore that
It's a relief that neither of us knows
What will happen tomorrow and the days after
 
Promise nothing, but please stay
Us two are chaos, but will be so right for each other
The way you touch me drives me crazy
Promise nothing
 
I think of you every time I am not with you
And every time someone asks how I want them to take me in
There is a concern that neither of us knows
Why precisely you and I didn't manage
 
Promise nothing, but please stay
Us two are chaos, but will be so right for each other
The way you touch me drives me crazy
Promise nothing
 
Promise nothing
Promise nothing
Promise nothing, but stay in my life because I am grown-up now
But sixteen inside
So promise nothing, but please stay
Us two are chaos, but will be so right for each other
The way you touch me drives me crazy
Promise nothing, so we don't create something that ends

Könnyek nélkül

Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
 
Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
 
(Verze 1)
Oly régóta várok, türelmesen
Azt tettem, amire azt mondták, hogy a legjobb nekem
Vakon követtem ezt, bizalommal
És sosem kérdeztem, hogy miért
Nem tudva a bennem rejlő erőről
Ez a szeretet ajándéka volt, mely arra rendeltetett
Hogy megosszam a világgal, becsületesen
Ez volt az egyedüli álmom
 
(Refrén:)
Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
Nincs hullatni való könny, csak a boldogság vár
Ez az évezred lesz az én időm, hogy szabad legyek
 
(Verze 2)
Mindezek által fejlődtem, nem bántam meg
Mondhatom, jól megtanultam a leckét
A küzdelmet és a fájdalmat nem felejtem el
Ez nyomot hagyott bennem
Minden erőmből, amim van
Meg kell ragadnom egy édes élet esélyét
Nincs bennem kétség, hogy áldott vagyok
Élni fogom az álmomat
 
(Refrén:)
Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
Nincs hullatni való könny, csak a boldogság vár
Ez az évezred lesz az én időm, hogy szabad legyek
 
Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
Nincs hullatni való könny, csak a boldogság vár
Ez az évezred lesz az én időm, hogy szabad legyek
 
Nem, nem, nincs könny...
Oooh annyira akartam ezt, hogy sírni tudtam volna
Nem, nem, nincs könny
De amikor megkaptam, nem volt helyes
Nem, nem, nincs könny
Valaki más látomása volt ez rólam
Nem, nem, nincs könny
És most az enyémet fogom élni
 
(Refrén:)
Nincs könny a síráshoz, nincs szomorú búcsú
Kitárom a szárnyaimat, és készen állok a repülésre
Nincs hullatni való könny, csak a boldogság vár
Ez az évezred lesz az én időm, hogy szabad legyek

Actor

Versions: #1
Actor means light
it's a very bitter sorrow
a very tiny sign.
 
Speak up, are you crying?
You don't say no.
Are you hungry?
Ha ha! And what is there for you to eat?
You keep wandering around, tell me where are you going?
 
I am looking for you in this space
for i am an insignificant
and deplorable actor.
You'll perform once, i'll perform twice
You'll cry once, i'll cry twice
i will deny you like an alone reed.
 
I will cover myself, i'll got myself wrapped
with a white clothe and a bird
a white bird calling the other bird
the black one.
 
Consolation to the osier
Oh, what an unbearable pain
And you then you are telling me that
two crazy girls are in love with me
why do they keep silent?
why do they keep silent?
 
Come out in the light, you'll see me performing
I am a wise man, do not have any doubts
Come out in the light, you'll see me performing
 
Whatever one says, being an actor
is a deep, bitter sorrow
and a tiny sign.
 
An actor, either a stupid or a wise one
i am too, just us you are a kid
eager to watch something.
Drink some wine, a golden drop
from the soul, to the soul.

Dark Dancing

Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
I want your movements
Dark dancing until the morning
In an endlessness of moments.
 
Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
Feel the beat and give in to it
Dark dancing until the morning!
You like it, admit it!
Hey, you!
 
Too much
Gloomy thoughts?
So drive them away!
No worries,
No problems,
This is our night!
 
Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
I want your movements
Dark dancing until the morning
In an endlessness of moments.
 
Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
Feel the beat and give in to it
Dark dancing until the morning!
You like it, admit it!
Hey, you!
 
Is it too hard?
Is it too empty?
Free yourself and forget
Here and now!
Nothing matters,
It won't be sad,
After all, it's an hour until dawn...
 
And this means...
 
Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
I want your movements
Dark dancing until the morning
In an endlessness of moments.
 
Hey, you! Blow up the dance floor!
Feel the beat and give in to it
Dark dancing until the morning!
You like it, admit it!
Hey, you!

Heodenings’ ballad

The unyielding trolls quicken tempo
of the ancient rhymes
dwarfs elves ghosts with
fairies sibyls witches
 
I had a hard struggle with
the evil prophesied thought
forests finally under oak
reached a settlement
 
On the hillside the sloping trunk
a broad river some wood
foliage covered the whole country
alfins hung down
 
The unyielding trolls quicken tempo
of the ancient rhymes
dwarfs elves ghosts with
fairies sibyls witches
 
Forest trolls in the wind
raised the skull on high
gushes from the storm hall
hurtled all to abomination

The Neck and the Maiden

There lived a count high up-land
He had three daughters and neat they were
-with all the right
 
It spread across the kingdom, its spread across the land
It spread to the Neck1 by the fairy-blue shore
-with all the right
 
The Neck he could, after all, dress so nicely
And so he rode forward so that the mountains rang
-with all the right
 
Reins of silk and bridle of gold
and the horses stood stomping like lions on dirt
-with all the right
 
And so he rode to the maiden
I will give you a ring if you want to be mine
-with all the right
 
Diligently I wish to own you Neck
Diligently I wish to go to the thousand fairies' land2
Diligently I wish to own you Neck
Diligently I wish to set course to the thousand fairies' shore
Tral...3
 
The maiden takes the ring and follow the Neck
And so they rode forward so that the mountains rang
-with all the right
 
The Neck rode past a church as they went
They admire his woman, they admire her man4
-with all the right
 
To church, the fair maiden wished to go
Your best queen should be more than a thousand fairies' blue
-with all the right.
 
Diligently I wish to own you Neck
 
Tral...
 
And so he rode the maiden trough the rivers
the earth shook and mountains cracked
-with all the right
 
Tral...
 
  • 1. Not the body part, this is the name of a Water Spirit
  • 2. 'älv/älvar/s can also mean river or rivers. This applies to all places where I've write 'fairy' in the text.
  • 3. I am not entirely sure what they're trying to say here but my guess is that they mean something along with someone humming a lyrics.
  • 4. I assume it is this, but it can also mean 'they admired his woman, her they admired.' or something completely different.

Song From a Party

My paintings are lying all over the floor.
None of them are on my wall yet.
I’ll get to what I was gonna do tomorrow.
Everyone will be tired of me.
There was no rain this past summer.
Though tears did run down my face.
A speech was held one afternoon
and I stormed out afterwards.
 
From one romance to another,
I’ve gotten your names mixed up.
‘Cause I am hurt by those memories
and by my own name.
The greatest thing that’s ever happened to me
was a thunderstorm up above.
So yeah, I still feel pretty strong
despite a year of hell.
 
I learned so much about which lines to cross.
I had to draw one in the sand.
I’m still pretty heartbroken
but finally free.
I called you once back in August
but there was no signal.
I wanted to be with you so bad
but now I’ll be alone for a while.
 
Bamad left Sweden on a plane,
probably never coming back.
I’ve hardly seen the others.
Natanel now has two kids.
I often feel so alone.
It’s always sort of been like this, but
it sucks having to fold my sheets alone
without saying good night to you.
 
Of course I’ve never been romantic,
it was you who took pictures of me.
The colours are now on the trees
like the movies I saw with you.
Well, I gotta go now,
the others are waiting on me.
I sort of just wanted to say
that I miss you.

Since Every Time

It’s not exciting anymore, for none of us.
Wish we only had more to talk about.
I lie in bed ahead of you.
You don’t see my face in the mirror.
We’re good, each of us.
We do better in your dreams.
 
Since every time I believe less,
since every time I hope more.
You shouldn’t stay with me
and I should leave you too.
But that’s not what I’m gonna do.
 
I’ll forgive anyone else but myself.
Should have gone a few laps before you did.
You’re coming closer to me.
Think you forgot to close the window.
 
Since every time I believe less,
since every time I hope more.
You shouldn’t stay with me
and I should leave you too.
But that’s not what I’m gonna do.
 
Since every time I believe less,
since every time I hope more.
You shouldn’t stay with me
Yeah, I should love you more.
But that’s not what I’m gonna do.
 
I lie in bed, ahead of you.

You Can Never See Me Happy

You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
 
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.
 
You can never see me happy.
You can never see me happy.

Moosehorn Lake

There's a camp deep in the woods,
It's one of my favourite places.1
No phone, or running water, or electricity.
Not everyone would like that
But for me it's true beauty.
I would love to be with my buddies
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
We bring all our instruments
And many cases of beer.
We're always cooking
Something on the old wood-burning stove.
Maxwell House boiling on the fire,
It's the best coffee.
I would love to be with my buddies
At Moosehorn Lake.
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
I moved in the heat wave,
Sun burning all the time.
But I've got no fear of working
To make my money.
When I work outside for 10 hours straight
In 40 degree weather,
I think of being with my buddies
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
I've been told to move to the city,
It'd be exciting.
Nah, I've got nothing against city folk,
But they're different.
If they made the trip,
They'd be able to appreciate
Being deep in the woods
At Moosehorn Lake.
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
Fifteen years from now,
I don't know what I'll be doing.
And if the camp is still there
It'll be run down.
Many of my greatest memories,
It's there that they were formed.
I'd love to be with my buddies
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
And 50 years from now
The camp will be in ruins2
Anything that remains
The forest will have eaten.
I hope that we'll be able to see it,
We can get to know each other again.
I would love to be with my buddies
At Moosehorn Lake.
At Moosehorn Lake.
 
  • 1. I don't know what 'y'in' means. I believe the overall meaning of the line should be pretty close regardless.
  • 2. I don't know what 'fera déboulée' means here. From some googling, this is my best guess.

And he has broken hair.
I squat on my face, gay, gay,
I drink his eyes! .. '

Black Sun

Versions: #1
Paranoia has blossomed in maroon colors
The parallel Universe is at war.
A magnetic field of an uneven battle
Is approaching like a deadly wave.
 
If the black sun explodes
Everything will turn upside down in this life,
The world as we know it will cease to exist,
It will be gone for good.
 
A pathetic illusion of our freedom
Is ringing the bell revealing our worries
But the deceased Gods won't hear us
And won't help us.
 
In the vast night sky there are sources of light
Twinkling of stars - cigarette flames,
Planets begin the last parade,
And each of them will get a lucky token.
 
If the black sun explodes
Everything will turn upside down in this life,
The world as we know it will cease to exist,
It will be gone for good.
 
A pathetic illusion of our freedom
Is ringing the bell revealing our worries
But the deceased Gods won't hear us
And won't help us.

A szarvak árnyékában

A kecske képe a tükörben
Szemei égnek mint az októberi napfelkelte
Mint egyszer, mikor a hegyoldalra bámultak fel
emlékeket keresve
 
A szarvak árnyékában
csak az első évezred hajnalának királyai által látva
fent a trónokon
 
A szarvak árnyékában
Megtisztulva, mint az éjjeli levegő
világ vég nélkül
 
Az átkozott magok fajtájává lettünk
az öt egyesült erőért
az örök hajnalban
a királyok, akik magasra emelik fejüket
 
A káosz diadala - az utunkra vezetett
körbevesszük a szent Sínai-hegyet - a kardjaink szárnyakat adnak
végtelen gyűlöletünk láthatatlan ereje
magjaink kikelnek ahogy felnézünk az új évezredre
 
Dicső nagyjaink sírja mellett sírva
a megkeményedett fagy is leolvad
felhők gyűlnek a fagyos hold elé
megcsókolom a kecskét - a boszorkányság még lélegzik

Könnyű

Nézem, ahogy a fény
Az utcára vetődik
Nézem, ahogy pislogsz,
Épp mielőtt megszólalsz
 
Szeretem, ahogy levegőt veszel
Gyűlölöm a napot, amikor elmész
Könnyű elfelejteni
Amibe amúgy még bele sem kezdtünk
 
Néha a szerelem egy olyan hiba
Amit könnyű elkövetni
És ha bármi kétség merül fel
Jobban jársz nélküle
 
Nézem ahogy ülsz
Bámulva a kijelződet
Azt hiszem én is
Illenék oda
 
Könnyű, mikor megpróbáljuk
De nem szabad feledni
Hogy miért is próbáljuk meg, amikor megtesszük
Vagy csak próbálkozunk?
 
És ez az elromlott és szomorú dolog
Az egyetlen még mindig, amink van
És itt fogok várni addig
Amíg valakinek nem lesz jobb ötlete

Black mole

Versions: #2
Don't look at me so, through your squinting eye,
Gentlemen, barons and ladies.
In twenty minutes I couldn't get drunk, if I tried
From a single glass of cold brandy,
 
After all, I'm a student, I'm chamberlain's child,
I'm a black mole, I'm a bat, blind and free.
Wine and men, it's the life I required.
Salute immigrants into the free Paris!
 
In October my father was taken alive,
But he helped the *Whites quite a lot.
And the cold words 'firing squad' when the time arrived-
The tribunal verdict, like sound of a shot.
 
And here I'm, a prostitute, in a bar, what's your desire,
I'm a black mole, I'm a bat, blind and free.
Wine and men, it's the life I required.
Salute immigrants into the free Paris!
 
I said to the colonel: Take me, here I'm!
There is no way with *Don 'currency' you're going to pay,
Sir, you better pay me with Francs,
And all the rest it's the dust on the roadway.
 
And here I'm, a prostitute, in a bar, what's your desire,
I'm a black mole, I'm a bat, blind and free.
Wine and men, it's the life I required.
Salute immigrants into the free Paris!
 
Only sometime, when I wild passion pretend
I recall the dust of Odessa, and dear acacia tree,
And I spit in their drooling faces then!
And all the rest is just a sad story.
 
After all, I'm a student, I'm chamberlain's child,
I'm a black mole, I'm a bat, blind and free.
Wine and men, it's the life I required.
Salute immigrants into the free Paris!

Thorny Rain Break


My anguish is dissolving into the sound of the rain
The silence is scattered all about
 
In the threshold of the shaking world
Even though it hurts this much
 
With broken wings, I was looking
at the faint sky outside my cage
 
Within the hatred about to spill over, my hopes that drown in lies
are pouring down ceaselessly, a thorny rain
 
At this rate, the night will sink down
I noticed it all by myself
I'm just scared, sad, lonely
 
The ascending dancing pain
has increased since yesterday
In the depths of my heart,
even now it continues to clamp down on my chest
 
My breaking ideals now
are mixed with the rain and blood
twisting and bending
I know the entire truth and the fabrication
 
The light will be snuffed out by you
 
The screams are melting into the sound of the rain
The feelings are reflected in the droplets of water
 
My heart has always been crying
I can't help hating myself
Why is there nowhere for me to be?
I want to vanish
 
Within the hatred about to spill over, my hopes that drown in lies
are pouring down ceaselessly, a thorny rain
 
At this rate, the night will sink down
I noticed it all by myself
I'm just scared, sad, lonely
 
The ascending dancing sadness
has increased since yesterday
In the depths of my heart, it continues to clamp down on my chest
 
My breaking dreams now
are mixed with the rain and blood
twisting and bending
I know the entire truth and the fabrication
 
The thorny rain pours down ceaselessly

If I never would have met you I'd been happy now.

It's something in your glance
I don't know what I have yet
If you gave me a chance a last time, I wouldn't take it
It's something in your way, ah I think it drags me down
First when I've gotten under you, you want to see me.
 
If I never would have met you, would I've been happy now?
I woke by a dream, one morning it laid here on the table
Like a rain of sun* I laid, he who had a hard time with the words
He wrote that it was over now, that I could breathe now.
 
That I probably shouldn't be here, that we should meet others.
 
If I never would have met you, would he have been happy now?
The one who got burnt by the fire, blows even though it's cold
The one who got scared once, and feels worry for everything
 
If I never would have met you, would I've been happy now?
He was like a room, one with white cracked edges
She wanted to give you all from what I understand.
 
But that which is easy in the beginning
often becomes harder with time
And she became like an ocean that runs along the cheek
 
If I never would have met you, would she'd been happy now?
The one who got burnt by the fire, blows even though it's cold
The one who got scared once, and feels worry for everything
 
If I never would have met you, would I've been happy now?

Black Moth*

Don’t look at me like that, with your sneering eyes,
Gentlemen, barons and ladies **.
I couldn’t get drunk after 20 minutes
From a glass of cold brandy.
 
You see, I’m an educated girl, a chamberlain’s daughter,
I’m a black moth, I’m a bat.
My world is filled with wine and men.
Free Paris is the shelter of immigrants!
 
My father in October couldn’t get out,
But he did a lot to help the Whites***.
There came a deadline, and then the cold word “shot” –
A verdict pronounced by the tribunal.
 
And so now I’m a prostitute, a barfly,
A black moth, a bat.
My world is filled with wine and men.
Free Paris is the shelter of immigrants!
 
I said to the colonel, “Nate, take that away!
Don’t pay with Donskoy**** currency,
Give me Francs, Sir, to pay for my love,
For everything else is just dust in the road.
 
And you see I’m a prostitute, a barfly,
A black moth, a bat.
My world is filled with wine and men.
Free Paris is the shelter of immigrants!
 
Only at times, during a wild rush of passion,
I recall my homeland Odessa,
And then I spit in their drooling mouths!
And everything else is just a sad tale.
 
For I’m an educated girl, a chamberlain’s daughter,
I’m a black moth, I’m a bat.
My world is filled with wine and men.
Free Paris is the shelter of immigrants!

I Feel No Love

Versions: #2
He's good-looking and he's amicable
He can be very decent and charming
We can talk about a lot of things
Time spent with him is amusing
When I ask for something I never hear a 'No'
And I can easily forgive his little flaws
 
But I feel no love
And I don't wish to belong to him
For I feel that without love
I'd die and it would destroy me
And I don't wish to give him my whole life
For then it will be finished
 
He will never completely understand me
He's blind to my longings
He's not cold but never cordial
He kisses me furtively like a child
 
And, no, I feel no love
No trace of tenderness
If I ever should fall in love then
It would be with a man who liberates me
Yes, then I would give my whole live
And through him I would be free
 
Please alert me when spelling, print or other inconsistencies are spotted. Thank you!

Nincsen rózsa tövis nélkül ...

Csöndben fekszünk egymás mellett
az éjszaka sötétjében
Habár közel fekszünk egymáshoz
Mégis úgy érezzük mérföldek választanak el
Mondtam vagy tettem valamit
Talán rosszul jöttek ki a szavaim
Ugyan próbáltalak nem megbántani
Igen próbáltalak
De azt hiszem ezért mondják, hogy ...
 
[Énekkar:]
Nincsen rózsa tövis nélkül
Csak úgy, mint ahogy minden éjszakának van hajnala
Csak úgy, mint ahogy minden cowboy a saját bús, bús dalát énekli
Nincsen rózsa tövis nélkül.
 
Igen, igen
A kedvenc dalunkat hallgatom
épp az szól a rádióban
Hallom, ahogy a DJ az mondja tudja,
hogy a szerelem egy játék
ami könnyen jön is könnyen megy
De azon tűnődöm tudja-e
Érzett-e valaha így
És tudom, hogy itt lennél most
Ha valahogy a tudtodra adhatnám.
 
[Énekkar:]
 
Bár már egy kis idő eltelt azóta
Még mindig sok fájdalmat érzek
Mint a kés, amely megcsúszik
A seb gyógyul, de a heg, a heg ott marad
Tudom, hogy meg tudtam volna menteni a szerelmünket aznap éjjel
Ha tudtam volna mit mondjak
Szerelem helyett
Mindketten a saját utunkat járjuk
Most hallom, hogy találtál valaki újat
És hogy soha nem sokat jelentettem neked
Ezt hallva kettészakadok belül,
És látni téged, olyan mint ha egy kés vágna belém.

Black Eyes

The day in autumn when leaves fell down with quiet sadness.
The crystal sorrow lived in last asters feeling doomed.
That fall we didn't know heart-grief and darkness,
We were in love then and for us the spring still bloomed.
 
Ah, these black eyes enchanted me, left me spellbound.
I can't forget them anywhere,
They burn before me every day.
 
Ah, how these black eyes loved me then, in them I drowned.
Where have you gone from me of late,
And with whom do you stay?
 
Ah, these black eyes will ruin me, enslave forever.
I can't forget them anywhere,
They burn before me like a spell.
 
Ah, these black eyes, who'll fall in love with you wherever
Will lose his peace forevermore,
Will lose his heart as well.
 
Black and burning eyes, bright and passionate,
Hot and beautiful, yet impassionate!
I'm in love with you, I'm afraid of you!
The day I met you was to eschew!
 
Ah, these black eyes, who'll fall in love with you wherever
Will lose his peace forevermore,
Will lose his heart as well.

Guildo Loves You All!

Guildo loves you all
And even if there are some tears once in a while
He'll come over and sing some songs for you
Guildo loves you all
 
There was a time
A time of tenderness
Back then, cuddling and smooching and loving each other
Was always a big deal
 
I enjoy thinking back
On this time of harmony and happiness
When every day, I added the following line to a friendship book1:
Peep, peep, peep – I like you a lot2
 
Guildo loves you all
And even if there are some tears once in a while
He'll come over and sing some songs for you
Guildo loves you all (Again and again)
 
In my little world
Where all people stick by each other
And where tears don't lie3
Dreams learn to fly
 
I'd really want to be there
I wouldn't be too far away from the stars
And from there, I'd send you my token of love:
Nut slices4 and strawberry ice cream
 
Guildo loves you all
And even if there are some tears once in a while
He'll come over and sing some songs for you
Guildo loves you all (Again and again)
 
I enjoy thinking back
On this time of harmony and happiness
When every day, I added the following line to a friendship book:
Peep, peep, peep – I like you a lot
 
Guildo loves you all
And even if there are some tears once in a while
He'll come and sing some songs for you
Guildo loves you all (Again and again, again and again)
 
(Guildo loves us all, again and again)
Whoa... Guildo loves you all (Again and again)
(Guildo loves us all, again and again)
Hey, Guildo loves you all
 
  • 1. This is a reference to a German kind of friendship book usually kept by children, who pass it around to all their friends so that each one of them adds a couple of lines to it, usually in the form of a short poem.
  • 2. This (rhyming) line is widely nonsensical
  • 3. This line is a reference to the very famous Schlager song 'Tränen lügen nicht' by Michael Holm. Guildo Horn is a devout fan of Schlager music, which represents a rather sentimental and happy-go-lucky attitude.
  • 4. 'Nussecken' () were actually popularised by this song. There was a hype in 1998 and people loved them so much that you can still buy them in many bakeries. They are still associated with Guildo Horn's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest.

Black Sun

A paranoia has blossomed in scarlet.
A war has happened in the neighbouring Universe.
A magnetic field of an unequal fight
Is approaching us like a fatal wave.
 
If the black sun explodes
Everything in this live will turn upside down.
The habitual world will never be back
It will never be back.
 
A sad ghost of our freedom
Is ringing the bell raising the alarms.
But dead Gods
Won't hear and won't help.
 
Sources of light in a boundless night.
Twinkling of stars, sparks of cigarettes.
The planets are starting their last parade.
And everyone will get a lucky ticket.
 
If the black sun explodes
Everything in this live will turn upside down.
The habitual world will never be back
It will never be back.
 
A sad ghost of our freedom
Is ringing the bell raising the alarms.
But dead Gods
Won't hear and won't help.

Black Rain Of Hiroshima

One more second and it's all over.
There's nothing more to believe for us.
Look, how much pain carries with it
The 'Little Boy' filled with uranium.
 
One more moment and already don't care
Who we were and who would we become.
The black rain will wash away like a spot,
All traces of our tears and sorrows.
 
Look, how greedily the fire swallows
Bodies of quite young creatures.
Everywhere is hearing a childish groan
From ruined and charred buildings.
 
Everywhere is hearing a childish cry,
Getting quieter and quieter.
Flying in the sky a steel executioner
Won't give them the opportunity to survive.
 
We need to save ourselves as soon as possible.
Leaving those who is beyond help.
Look, mothers' eyes are full of blood,
From powerlessness to do something.
 
A fire of candles is not fade,
Memories are unbearable.
Squeeze stronger the memory in your palm
And remember the pain of Hiroshima.

These Eyes / The Man Is Dead

[Mercedes:]
Oh Lord, my heart is beating faster
And my mind is in desperation
Can it be?
Can it be you returned?
 
How his gaze is secretly lusting for me
Dark, full of desire and deep as the ocean
This face seems to familiar to me
Just bereft of its youth and softness
What is it that makes you hesitate?
A whisper is enough
So close, yet inaccessibly far away
I see a man lying to himself
Torn apart by endless silence
 
[Monte Christo:]
The man is dead
Nothing has remained
He died a little every day
Deep underground at Château d'If his coffin is rotting
You are confused
He isn't here
No matter what you see
Dead and cold he soon was
A little history
Of love
And how to betray it
 
[Monte Christo (& Mercedes):]
I am a ghost (In this gaze...)
A false dream made up of old pictures of him (... pictures of him...)
(Dark, full of desire and deep as the ocean)
The man is dead (Like this gaze...)
Nothing has remained
But still this pain is tormenting me (... this pain is tormenting me)
 
[Monte Christo (& Mercedes):]
Won't you release me and set my heart free
What is it that makes me hesitate?
A whisper is enough
So close, yet inaccessibly strange
Has love succumbed to destiny?
Too much has been broken...
Too many scars...
For this silence to tear us apart...

The black cat

Once upon a time, a black cat lived in a corner,
and everybody in the house hated it.
Still, the song is not about
how people did not get along with the cat.
 
They say it's bad luck
when a black cat crosses your path.
That's rather the opposite,
all the bad luck is for the cat.
 
There's a ruckus in the courtyard all day
as they shoo the cat out of the way.
Still, the song is not about
how the whole house chased the cat.
 
They say it's bad luck
when a black cat crosses your path.
That's rather the opposite,
all the bad luck is for the cat.
 
Even to meet its sweetheart
the cat had to run for miles.
Still, the song is not about
how these lovebirds purred together.
 
They say it's bad luck
when a black cat crosses your path.
That's rather the opposite,
all the bad luck is for the cat.
 
The poor cat was pitch black
from ears to tail, darker than night.
And the song is actually about
what a drag being a black cat is.
 
They say it's bad luck
when a black cat crosses your path.
That's rather the opposite,
all the bad luck is for the cat.
 
They say it's bad luck
when a black cat crosses your path.
That's rather the opposite,
all the bad luck is for the cat.
All the bad luck is for the cat.
All the bad luck is for the cat.
All the bad luck is for the cat.

If You Are Running in Circle

Legs – higher, shoulders – wider,
when it rains or it snows.
It’s known that run in circle is
the very best run.
 
Shoulders – wider, legs – higher,
joy on a face –
we all ain’t at the start,
but we all ain’t at the end either.
 
And yet we are running in circle
from dusk to dawn,
we started today,
but finished yesterday.
 
If you are running in circle
remember only this:
either in front or behind –
really doesn’t matter.
 
Legs – higher, shoulders – wider,
when it rains or it snows,
run in circle will dry everyone out
the very best run.

Lime Kilns

We'll stay awake even though the sun goes down
Locked inside our concrete eden
And the devil awaits at the door
That we break our fast and leave for dinner
 
Pores open in the window
With the bullets left by chance
We'll bathe the children in coffee
We'll shelter behind paper roofs
 
Flies make clouds around the altar
Shadows and little bread go hand by hand
To think is to die without dinner
They planted lime very deep in our veins
 
Our lungs breathe the salt
And expand until they explode
New men are born, thirst is inherited
They'll live rinsing their eyes in coffee
