The telephone weeps

Please tell her: 'Mum, there's someone for you.'
 
(C) Ah, it's the gentleman from last time?
Ok, I'll go find her

and I don't know if she can come.
 
(D) Tell her, please, tell her it's important
I am going to wait.

(D) Tell me, how is your house?
Do you learn your lessons every evening?

(D) Oh, tell her I suffer
I have been suffering for six years,
it's your age, my child.

Eh, tell me, have you already met my mum?
For she has never told me about you.
Stay on the line, eh!

When he cries 'I love you'
the words die inside the handset.

and I can also swim.
But tell me, how do you know the hotel Beau-Rivage?
Have you been to Sainte Maxime too?
 
(P) Oh, tell her my suffering
how much I love both of you!
 
(C) I love you? But I have never seen you
What's up?
Your voice is different, why?
But... you are crying, why?

I Don't Care

I don't care whether life stops or drips of pineapple juice
I don't care if it makes a noise and the road goes backwards
I don't care if light deceives and there's nothing strange
I don't care if the cost increases and the price double, as it should've
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
 
I don't care if it's a lost cause
If my end goal was never to win
I make immense plans that I shouldn't
When I erase myself faster than I can write
I erase myself faster than I can write
 
I don't care if I changed ideas, lyrics, epics I didn't go back to
I don't care if I win prizes, if I only have dust on my sofa
I don't care if the crises gets larger and if the vest can't handle it
I don't care whether I care, but I'll agree if you stay there
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
 
I don't care if it's a lost cause
If my end goal was never to win
I make immense plans that I shouldn't
When I erase myself faster than I can write
I erase myself faster than I can write
 
I erase myself faster than I can write
I erase myself faster than I can write

To get lost

I'll look for you
In every street, I will do it, In every bar,
In every city winter
 
I'll learn from an old goodbye
To make the world I would like
I don't want no suffering, whatever it is for us, it is
 
To get lost
Without the time to say yes
Without wondering who will be your love
 
Shaking
Inside the heart and then melt
Inside the storm of my love
Inside the morning sun to come
To get lost
 
I'll make it
Even if then I'll be wrong
I'll learn from an old goodbye
To be an acrobat too
 
To get lost
Without the breath to say yes
Without wondering what love yours will be
 
And squeeze
Inside the heart and then melt
Inside the storm of my love
Inside the morning sun to come
To get lost

Talk to me

I don't know anymore how to tell you and I can't find the words anymore
the words that made you laugh, and the words that you used to find beautiful
a lot of times I wanted to write it down for you, and a lot of times I hunched my back (I hesitated from writing)
and in order to relive our memories, I even brushed against your skin
 
oh tell me, look at me
I don't know anymore how to love you, nor how to keep you
talk to me, yes, talk to me
I don't know anymore why do I love you, nor why should we continue
you are here, but you're so far away from me
 
I don't know anymore how to chase this love which isn't there anymore
I don't know anything anymore except suffering, suffering as much as I believed
but I know that I have to survive and to take one more step
to finally end the drift of the moments that are lost forever
 
oh, tell me, look at me
I don't know anymore how to love you, nor how to keep you
oh, tell me, look at me
There is the life we ​​dreamed of, the one that began
oh, talk to me, talk to me
I don't know anymore why I love you, nor how to continue
oh tell me, oh, tell me
tell me if everything has ended, if I need to go away
oh, talk to me, talk to me, look at me
look at me, look at me, look at me
 
talk to me

Who do you think you are, little bastard?

Death, we had it exiled,
feeling safe behind our walls, and you,
you stick it back right under our nose.
Who do you think you are, little bastard?
 
You have nothing new to teach us.
We know all about killing already.
you: a few thousands individuals
us: half of the mammals.
 
Well, except cats. And cattle.
And a few other edible stuff.
Anyway, you're way out of our league.
Your 500.000 deaths are but a sideshow.
 
Granted, there will be a few more
unfortunate victims of the economics.
But those won't be accounted for,
they won't disturb us in the least.
 
Don't go thinking we'll stop
wreaking havoc on our planet
just because you reminded us
we're milling about like headless chicken,
 
You're barking up the wrong tree, lad.
Well, that's what you would do
if you could bark. Anyway.
Where was I? Ah yes: die!

Strange

oh father it's strange, he knocked the door on me
he wanted to drink water and I gave him, poor one
he didn't have anyone, he was walking slowly
his heart was tired from travelling
he was thirsty and I watered him, he was cold and I made him warm
what happened is that I loved him, I hid him in my heart
this is a heart not a stone
 
the neighbors saw me hiding him in my eyes
they knew that I'm in love and called me crazy
oh father, I won't let him go, I swear I won't
and I will continue my life on his way
I hid him in my eyelashes, I gave him my life and soul
oh people, I loved him, his house became in my heart
enough with the harshness, we are humans
 
his heart is on mine, his way is on my way
what happened so we hide? it's neither his fault nor mine
two hearts that met and longed for each other
oh how much I'm afraid that fate will separate us
you became a part of me, your absence will make me crazy
don't ever go away from me, your nearness makes me assured
and oh, what will life worth without you?

And the two of us there

We'll never know whether our encounter was effect or mere1 cause
ownership or just our own nakedness
our bodies side by side like parallel strokes marking a pause
in the silence that floats without gravity.
 
There has been no pact, no promise, no agreement,
everything is always just a matter of chance
and then every moment is like the first one and there is no afterwards that's not a memory
as in dreams, outside reality.
 
In the cold, still, white darkness of the wine that helps us know each other
one does not know about the other, who she is, who she will be
but we choose each other because of something that's in the heart, in the head and between our legs
to part ways as we are in a tie, always
 
Only the skies to cover us
and an obsession with infinity
 
Love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there
the two of us there
 
Outside a fresh day dawns and there's a new wind that can be seen but not heard
there's one last star to grab before leaving
now even a kiss is a trick to prevent you from speaking
because the night is a game of shadows and a world that spies on us
 
In the full emptiness of an interior
as in an everlating present
that love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there.
 
Who knows if we are real
the two of us there
or two rmote reflections
the two of us there
visions or perhaps thoughts
the two of us there
or poetry and songs
the two of us there
we are yesterday's future
the two of us there
that becomes past tomorrow.
 
Us, those of love without the troubles of love
its space is everywhere, its time is never
if you read it line by line you live a story you already know
yet you dream, if you open the book of lives on a random page.
 
Love that has no where or why
a voice that says nothins and stays between me and you
the two of us roaming along borders
roads with no beginning and no end
like the two of us, there.

Inertia

Versions: #2
Where are you taking me, oh inertia?
So far has left behind the innocence
So bad, so good
That it tastes
 
Does anyone know what else fits in me?
There is no one
 
No one that can finish it
For me
Oh my bad, my dear
With no harm
 
Where are you leaving me, oh inertia?
So bad, so good
That it tastes
 
Does anyone know what else fits in me?
There is no one
 
That can sing this fado
For me
My bad, my dear
My bad, my dear
 
I just let myself go in my own harm
I have made you as my dear
With no harm
 
My bad, my dear
My bad, my dear
 
I just let myself go in my own harm
I have made you as my dear
With no harm

Being Human

Don't do that, you mustn't do that, you mustn't do that
It's your turn, baby, score your goal
If it doesn't happen now, it won't ever happen
You must be a good person and try hard for that is what they expect from you
 
I take life easy, I don't mind what mankind is doing
I'm no longer a part of this, I'm out of here
 
The rules are simple as long as you follow them
And shut your mouth, too, for else you'd surely fall deep
I can't guarantee anything, but you're not allowed
To talk back and if you do, you definitely shouldn't speak out loud
 
I take life easy, I don't mind what mankind is doing
I'm no longer a part of that, I'm out of here
I take life easy, I don't mind what mankind is doing
I'm no longer a part of that, I'm out of here (out, out, out)
 
If it doesn't happen now, you'll no longer be a part of this
(no longer a part, no longer a part)
If you fail today, you'll go down
(down, down, down)
But I'm telling you
I'm failing, I'm putting my hands up
Sod you, rest of the world!
I'm going to lie down on the beach
 
I take life easy, I don't mind what mankind is doing
I'm no longer a part of this, I'm out of here
I take life easy, I don't mind what mankind is doing
I'm no longer a part of this, I'm out of here
I'm no longer a part of this
I'm out of here, I'm no longer a part of this
I'm no longer a part of this
I'm no longer a part of this

The light or rage

I found that wonderful
When you surrounded me with clouds
Feet on the earth
But the heart running along
I found that wonderful
When you surrounded me with courage
Leaving behind
How many fires on the shore
Of wisdom or anger
Which will find me first
I hide and then I hope
Sometimes I feel so afraid to be trapped
By our burning loves
 
How many mirages
Did my eyes believe to have seen so clearly
For it’s by closing our cages again
That we free ourselves
When we open up to ourselves even to on the contrary
How many pages will I write before a spark
Comes to undo everything
Completely destroy what we could do
 
Let me be a child
Loved in the belly of the wind
I will love to relive this moment
 
I found that wonderful
When we were still young
My father and my mother
For one and only flash*
I found that wonderful
As you prevented me from shipwrecking
 
Taken headwinds
All our hells aboard
Of wisdom or anger
Which will find me first
I hide and then I hope
Sometimes I feel so afraid to be trapped
By our burning loves
 
How many mirages
Did my eyes believe to have seen so clearly
For it’s by closing our cages again
That we free ourselves
When we open up to ourselves even to on the contrary
How many pages will I write before a spark
Comes to undo everything
Completely destroy what we could do
 
Let me be a child
Loved in the belly of the wind
I will love to relive this moment
 
How many mirages
Did my eyes believe to have seen so clearly
For it’s by closing our cages again
That we free ourselves
 
How many mirages
Did my eyes believe to have seen so clearly
For it’s by closing our cages again
That we free ourselves
That we open up to ourselves on the contrary
Which from rage or the light
Enlightens me again, taken hostage
Between the light and rage
 
Let me be a child
Loved in the belly of the wind
I will love to relive this moment

Da Vinci Claude

Versions: #2
Behind the doors of the Louvre one finds the Saint Groove
At 40 steps from the Mona Lisa there is a red arrow
One must sneak in the night and if possible have a smooth step
Or the security guard could find, if not a red alert
 
We hide things from ourselves, since Adam and Eve
The hare and the tortoise, bet on the hare
The truth, the false, the truly false, the truth, it's true that it's false
 
Some had matches during the war of fire
The friend of a friend rubbed shoulders with Sophie Neveu
There was never a person who set foot on the moon
Someone said that it was Edith Piaf who wrote 'My thing with feathers.'
Someone said that on other planets, the little green men have television
And that they are fascinated by Justin Timberlake and Jean-Claude Bourret
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn
It's like I am in a chapter of 'The Da Vinci Claude'
 
You you you you you you...
You you you you you you...
Oh oh
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn
 
So many state secrets are there before you
One night in an alley, a strange man told me
That Marilyn Monroe was a fan of Pompidou
And that she declared her passion by singing 'Pom Pom Pi Dou'
 
The Dalai Lama, Serge Lama, Alain Delon
Left for Tibet to sing 'La Mandelon'
Someone says that there are people who go up in saucers
That there they drink coconut juice that was cut with a machete
Just because they spoke of the monster of Roswell
The American Army seperated them from Jacques Pradel
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn
It's like I am in a chapter of 'The Da Vinci Claude'
 
You you you you you you...
You you you you you you...
Oh oh
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn
 
The said that Shella and the Mona Lisa were men
That had a bug for the millenium
That certain bakers made babas of polonium
That they enrich uranium and they water it with rum
 
There is some info beyond that info, and some disinformation, all of that is not false
In 'The Simpsons', it's 'Who killed Kenny?'
But the question that one asks is 'Who killed Kenny?'
 
In the order of the Temple of Solaar advancing
I see coming firefighters with jerrycans of gas
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn
It's like I am in a chapter of 'The Da Vinci Claude'
 
You you you you you you...
You you you you you you...
Oh oh
 
Everything is mixed up in my head since dawn

I come back

I remember everything around here
Like I never left
Like it all happened yesterday
I remember everything around her
I take roots at the bottom of a well
A few steps away, in the heather
 
Whatever the pieces of sorrow
That come off my bohemian
I chose to be alive
Here, now, and everywhere
And I hope that I'll learn for long
And that I shall cross some scenes
I hope that it's just the start
The story has to keep going
 
But if I leave
Don't resent me
For this is my life, this is my path
It's my journey, my destiny
But If I was to leave
I would not look back
Cause I don't ever stray too far
And I come back everytime, I come back
I come back everytime
 
My life always gets better
When it's packed in a suitcase
And when the landscape flies by
I did not feed this fire
It's mostly it that feeds me
And I think its message says
Whatever the pieces of sorrow
That come off a bohemian
We have to choose to be alive
Here, now and everywhere
And I hope that I'll learn for long
And that I shall cross some scenes
I hope that it's just the start
The story has to keep going
 
But if I leave
Don't resent me
For this is my life, this is my path
It's my journey, my destiny
But If I was to leave
I would not look back
Cause I don't ever stray too far
And I come back everytime, I come back
I come back everytime
 
I am far, oh far from my folk
It's the only way for me to live
I am far, oh far from my folk
I'll never apologise for being free
 
But if I leave
Don't resent me
For this is my life, this is my path
It's my journey, my destiny
But If I was to leave
I would not look back
Cause I don't ever stray too far
And I come back everytime, I come back
 
But if I leave
Don't resent me
For this is my life, this is my path
It's my journey, my destiny
But If I was to leave
I would not look back
 
Cause I don't ever stray too far
And everytime I come back, I come back
Everytime I come back
Because I come back everytime
Because I come back everytime
Because I come back everytime
Because I come back everytime
Because I come back everytime
Oh, because I come back everytime
Because I come back everytime

The miserable singer

And I'm wondering if you're still existing,
And I'm wondering if your heart is north
If you make love at night when you're about to fall asleep
And all those kinds of things
But nothing has changed for me, I kept you
 
And I'm wondering who might touch your hair
And I'm wondering if you're near a fire
If you said to him those words you told me
And all those kinds of things
But while I'm thinking about this, you, you're forgetting me
 
Like a miserable singer
No one listens to
Like a miserable singer
People don't love anymore
Even though you're not here anymore
I'm still singing for you
And I'm wondering if you'll hear me
 
And I'm wondering if we'll see each other again
And I'm wondering if you'll still remeber
If we'll only become friends
And all those kinds of things
But you've probably forgotten we've loved each other
 
Like a miserable singer
No one listens to
Like a miserable singer
People don't love anymore
Even though you're not here anymore
I'm still singing for you
And I'm wondering if you'll hear me
 
Like a miserable singer
No one listens to
Like a miserable singer
People don't love anymore
Even though you're not here anymore
I'm still singing for you
And I'm wondering if you'll hear me

As usual

I get up
And I jostle you
You don't wake up
As usual
 
On you,
I pull the sheet up
I'm afraid you're cold
As usual
 
My hand
Barely touches your hair
Almost despite myself
As usual
 
But you
You're turning your back on me
As usual
 
And then
I quickly dress up
I leave the bedroom
As usual
 
All alone
I drink my coffe
I'm late
As usual
 
Noiselessly
I leave the house
Everything's grey outside
As usual
 
I'm cold
I pull my collar up
As usual
 
As usual
All day long
I'll play
I'll pretend
 
As usual
I'll smile
Yes, as usual
I'll even laugh
As usual
And at last, I'll live
Yes, as usual
 
And then
Day will pass
And I'll come back
As usual
 
You
You'll be out
Not here yet
As usual
 
All alone
I'll put myself to bed
Into this big cold bed
As usual
 
My tears
I'll hide them
As usual
 
As usual
Even at night
I'll play
I'll pretend
 
As usual
You'll come in
As usual
I'll wait for you
As usual
You'll smile at me
Yes, as usual
 
As usual
You'll undress
As usual
You'll put yourself to bed
As usual
We'll kiss
As usual
 
As usual
We'll pretend
Yes, as usual
We'll make love
Yes, as usual
We'll pretend
Yes, as usual...

Cinema

On the pictureless screen of my sleepless nights1
I shoot my own fantasies2
with no money nor camera.
Bardot3 can take a break,
you are my only star.
 
No matter how hard I try, no way I can tell you I love you.
I've got plenty of heart but little guts,
that's why I take revenge
on the pictureless screen of my sleepless nights,
where I shoot my own fantasies.
 
First, a close-up on your hips,
then a travelling panorama
on your king size breasts,
that's how my movie starts.
A smile on my face, I step toward you.
 
Six feet tall,
my sleeves bulging with muscles,
I'm the peerless star4 of my sleepless nights
when I shoot my own fantasies.
You soon end up in my arms.
 
The bed comes like an avalanche
on the pictureless screen of my sleepless nights
where I shoot my own fantasises.
Once, twice, ten, twenty times
I shoot the same sequence
 
where you fall into my arms.
I shoot every night,
even on sundays.
Sometimes the doorbell rings. I open the door, it's you!
Will I grab you by the hips,
like on the screen of my sleepless nights?
I won't. I just say 'how are you doing?'
and take you to the flicks.
 
  • 1. a sleepless night is called a 'white night' in French, making for a nice pun on 'black screen'. I could only try to match it by repeating 'less'. Not nearly as good as the original I'm afraid.
  • 2. 'se faire du cinéma' ('make oneself some cinema') means 'delude oneself', especially about a romantic relationship
  • 3. Brigitte Bardot, as famous a sex symbol in France as Marilyn Monroe in the US
  • 4. 'punching through the screen' means having a great presence

True Love

When there's love
Forever it remains
When there's true love
Our hearts alight
As dancing flames in the wind
And even if we separate
I know I['ll] find you
 
If I lose you
My heart will freeze
If I lose you
And only the fire of your yearning
? under the skin
Has warmed1 my cold spirit
 
Ever since I've felt in my heart
You feel the same way I do
I know what true
I know what true
I know what true love is

You are dead, my life, and I still breathe?
You are gone from me
Never to return, and I should remain?
No, for if verses can do anything,
I will go in safety to the deepest abysses,
And having softened the heart of the King of shades,
I will bring you back with me to see the stars again:
Oh, if wicked destiny refuses me this,
I will stay with you, in the company of death.
Farewell earth, farewell Heaven and Sun, farewell.

As Always

Verse 1
I get up, caress you a little, I won't wake you up, yes, as always.
On you, I'll roll up the blue blanket, yes, as always
And then I'll caress your hair, yes, as always
But you, you won't look at me, yes, as always.
 
Verse 2
And then, I'll be quiet, you know, I'll go to the other room, yes, as always.
There I'll drink my coffee, and it'll be already late, yes, as always.
I won't look back anymore, I have to run, yes, as always
But you, you won't understand, yes, as always
 
Chorus
And, as always, my day, I'll gamble with it, I'll lose it
And, as always, we'll laugh, yes, as always, about you and me
And, as always, I won't care, yes, as always.
 
Verse 3
And then everything will end, I'll come back, yes, as always.
And you, you be there, you'll still be away, yes, as always.
And I, I'll feel so useless, yes, as always
My tears, I'll hide them, yes, as always.
 
Chorus
But, as always, my night, I'll gamble with it, I'll win it.
Yes, as always, you'll come back, yes, as always, I'll wait for you
And, as always, you'll smile at me, yes, as always
And, as always, we'll hug, yes, as always, we'll kiss
And, as always, love will win, yes, as always.
And, as always, we'll hug, yes, as always, we'll kiss
And, as always, love will win, yes, as always.

Music Box

A dusty box set
and inside a picture
with your first boyfriend
cavalry lieutenant ...
On the hand-embroidered tablecloth
the pretzels with a tea
in your Venetian living room
the 5 - 4 - 23 …
Boat trips
your babysitter, a Chopin nocturne
a kiss on your hand
a camellia
a lapin muff
and deep in your tired eyes you have left
melancholy
that strokes your white hair
and takes you away…
 
Jesus, Jesus, you may say,
how funny I was!
You’ll smile, but you’ll feel a lump in your throat:
how beautiful you were
and what are you now?
An old music box
that no longer works…
 
In the reading room, after lunch,
lying on the sofa
you were reading eagerly a novel
with some phrases a bit risqué …
And on Thursday morning at a concert
with your parents at the “Odeon”
you were very bored
and were already thinking of the Charleston.
Baths at the beach
your horse
and a bamboo parasol
your braids, your dance card
and the cuckoo clock …
 
Now they have left you alone
now they have ran away
and maybe your picture
comforts you a little …
 
Jesus, Jesus, you may say,
how foolish I am!
And from your sweater you’ll pull out a handkerchief
and you will wonder
if staying down here on earth is good for something
to an old music box
that no longer works…

Life is now

Life is now
In the old hostel of the earth
And each one is in a room
And in a history
Made of mornings so light
And skies frayed with hope
And with silences to listen to
And you’ll be surprised that you’re singing
But you don’t know why
 
Life is now
In the afternoons just a little fresh
That make you feel sleepy
And the bells make the clouds spin
And it rains on the hairs
And on the tables of the sidewalk cafés
And you’re wondering, unsure, who you are
 
You are…
Are you…
It’s you…
 
It’s you who’s pushing on your heart
And the hard work
To be a man and not to know
What the future will be
It’s you, in the time that makes us bigger
And alone amid the world
With the angst to search together
For a deeper good
 
And for another one who gives you breath
And takes care of you
With an expectation of wanting to be more
Not realizing what it is
 
And you’re returning my looks
In this immense moment
Over the noise of the crowd
Tell me if this makes any sense
 
Life is now
In the sweet air of an after-dinner
And children’s faces against the panes
And meadows smoothing themselves like kittens
And millions of stars sticking to the street lamps
While you’ll be wondering where you are
 
You are…
Are you…
It’s you…
 
It’s you who’ll be carrying your love
On a hundred, a thousand roads
Because there’s no end to the journey
Even if a dream falls
 
It’s you who has a new wind in his arms
While coming to me
And you will learn that
A sunset is enough to die
 
In a joy that hurts
More than melancholy
And in any evening you’ll find yourself
Don’t throw yourself away
And don’t let a day go by
To find yourself again
Son of a sky so beautiful
Because life is now
It’s now
It’s now

A lady of thirty years ago

My indiscreet heart
still can't find peace,
more and more awake and restless
it doesn't give up despite its age.
Today it reminded me very secretly,
of a lady of thirty years ago.
 
In nineteen-nineteen,
dressed in voile and chiffon,
I met you, I don't remember where,
on the main street or maybe at a cotillon ball.
 
I remember the eyes, the eyes alone,
a bit marked with the blue pencil,
then I swore to you I loved you eternally.
Your name was... I can't remember.
 
My life is lost
if love goes away.
Today my unchanging heart,
which doesn't give up despite its age,
is still looking for its stranger lady
its lady of thirty years ago.
 
I remember the first kiss I gave you
shivering for emotion and passion,
a soft kiss, shy and sensible
through that short garçonne hair.
 
Then I led you... I can't remember where,
and you told me... I can't remember what.
In nineteen-nineteen
perhaps your name was... youth...

It's Too Late For a Goodbye

It's too late for a 'Goodbye',
Too much has happened already
But when you want to say farewell
Just say, 'I'll be seeing you.'
 
Feelings don't freeze
When snow falls on roses.
One winter does not rob us of the strength
That keeps us together.
 
We both may need some time
In order to understand at last.
The sea remains as a memory
When we see each other again.
 
And so tell me before you leave
'I'll be seeing you somewhere'
Perhaps very soon it might become
For us a 'Hey, hello!'
 
It's too late for a goodbye
Too much has happened already
But when you want to say farewell
Just say, 'I'll be seeing you.'
 
And when you have to say farewell
Just say, 'I'll be seeing you.'
 
Please alert me when spelling, print or other inconsistencies are spotted. Thank you!

Wind

Summer-wind, brought colours under a blue sky
When in the evening, in between young love, you still were there
You who mumbled in a dark corner 'she loves you'
 
I believed in it and got disappointed, where are you now?
You leave me alone dying from love, tell me, what are you doing?
Autumn-wind you blew the leafs from the branch
 
Wind, you take away every season, but tonight I won't play anymore
Wind, you make kites fly, then make them fall down
Wind I hate you, I despise you, you put out the sun in my soul
Also break the wings of my time, then disappear, where are you going?
 
Winter-wind, you cover colours and my blue sky
When in the morning, in between torment and pain, you are always here
You who makes me hope that in spring she will love me
 
I won't fall for it and go back to life, stronger than ever
I try everything to make it stop, you will see
From a black crow I will turn into a seagull
 
Wind, no, I will not indulge you, this time you won't push me down
I will send the kite higher until it's not seen anymore
Wind, you will eat from my hand like a tired sparrow and then
We will fly together slowly, until finding her
 
Wind, Wind, Wind, Wind

I will cry

The wind has helped me with its bellowing gust,
With its furious waves the sea has helped me too.
I will cry.
 
All along the way I will call the stones,
The bushes, the ditches, the trees, even the forests.
I will cry.
 
When I hear a voice
And feel something in my chest,
I will cry.
 
So as to make the meat in my throat blow up!
So as to make my blood rush in a primal scream!
I will cry, I will cry!
I will cry, I will cry!
 
Like a man who's stopped to look at the horizon
A man who's finally free from the weight of his chains
That were forged by mad kings and bloody barons,
And monks, all red from the glow of the fire
 
Where my brothers from the past have burned alive
Who have sung about love and human friendship
And eaten white bread made of freedom!
I will cry, I will cry!
I will cry, I will cry!

In order to C-A-S-T-R-A-T-E him
That's where he told us : Hey, you two

don't take me for a M-O-R-O-N
Oh yeah !

A kert

Én soha nem szerettem téged
Kevesebb, mint semmit
Örökké, kedvesem.
 
Ha az égben is boldog vagy
Vegyél, örökké
Vigyázom a környékedet.
 
A helyem a virágok.
Most már nem vagy
Én öntözöm a kerted.
 
A helyem a virágok.
Most már nem vagy
Én öntözöm a kerted.
 
Már ígértem, hogy
Majd egyszer változom
Vagy nagyobb megprobálok lenni.
 
Ha az égből is boldog vagy
Vegyél mert ígérem, hogy
Örökké a bátorságodra.
 
A helyem a virágok.
Most már nem vagy
Én öntözöm a kerted.
 
A helyem a virágok.
Most már nem vagy

Most már nem vagy, öntözöm a kerted.
Most már nem vagy, öntözöm a kerted.

Most már nem vagy, öntözöm a kerted.

Beautiful

So beautiful you could write inkpots dry
So beautiful you couldn't find a single word to describe it,
the birds would be left speechless, and the most skilled barrister1 too
your reflection in the water would be angered of being a mere echo.
 
Beautiful as an ocean setting down, as a shard of crystal
that would splash white light on hatred and evil alike,
enough to turn blue mirrors and pictures in drawers.
Beautiful enough to make concrete cities feel emotional.
 
So beautiful you hardly dare talk to her
or even get near her,
as if it were a mortal sin
to come close to such a pretty beauty!
But she doesn't notice me...
And yet I already know
she's the one and I'm the one!
 
Beautiful, please tell me what to do for her to see me at last?
Should she go, I'll die.
 
Beautiful, so beautuful I would wear down all paintbrushes
trying to draw in watercolour
your infinite beauty,
I would wallow in despair for being unable to tell
what your beauty looks like without somewhat betraying it.
 
So beautiful you could mellow the heart of tyrans and torturers,
drive away our demons and fears, burn flags.
So beautiful you'd make bugles and drums go quiet
and give back hope to love outcasts.
 
So beautiful you hardly dare talk to her
or even get near her,
as if it were a mortal sin
to come close to such a pretty beauty!
But she doesn't notice me...
And yet I already know
she's the one and I'm the one!
 
Beautiful, please tell me what to do for her to see me at last?
Should she go, I'll die.
