in the end, everything passes

They say, two years from now
all the melodies will end
and I'll have nothing to sing to you
in some sad moment
it's like a 'Déjà vu'
come closer now
tight, tight
 
they say that the sky
will peel soon
and god
will save us from all the madness.
 
so what are you afraid from?
what are you afraid from?
 
in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
and soldiers come back home from their officer
to a crazy weekend
maybe to a lonely island
there are people who only engage in being scared
all their life
 
you are rolling to yourself a cigarette and say that...
through red eyes, we can see more beautiful
look, in the end every color peels
I think...
 
in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
so in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
in the end, everything passes
that's what my mother have told me
time is flying by
like airplanes in the sky
everything passes in the end
many people I used to know
they won't come back
they won't come back
 

Yes, Exactly!

You'll se it won't take more than a few days
Love is unworthy of feeling bad about it
One day surely we'll laugh again
If we notice it doesn't work then we can drink tea
 
'I am not like anyone'
Do you remember you said 'I am different from them'?
Yes, exactly!
 
All people you flatterd
It kicked up
Yes, exactly!
 
Tonight among friends
A table prepared in honor of you
Your name is a curse now in our words
Why'd you care about this?
They told which is
 
You'll se it won't take more than a few days
Love is unworthy of feeling bad about it
One day surely we'll laugh again
If we notice it doesn't work then we can drink tea
 

It’s Not My Fault

I didn’t want to fall in love with you, because I knew what you thought of me.
But I fell in love, I don’t know how
But I fell in love, I don’t know how
I understood well that you’ll never love me
But what to do if I love you more every time
 
(Chorus)
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, my heart is guilty
 
I understood well that you’ll never love me
But what to do if I love you more every time
 
(Chorus)
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, guilty
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, my heart is guilty
 

I Thank Before Thee

For the singing rain
For the sun upon the mountain
For the sparing bread
For the foreign beauty
Thank You.
For the voice of the bird that sang a simple song
When I wished to die
Thank You
 
For the pure salt
For the clear wine
For the soft pleasure
For the damp sadness
Thank You
For the green grass that served as my bed
When I made love to her
Thank You
 
I thank before Thee
For the blue river
That comes from You and flows to You
And in the meantime flows within my heart
I thank before Thee.
 
For the loud silence
For the warm sound
For the prevention of bloodshed
For the kind hearts of mankind
Thank You
 
For bringing me out of the bloody darkness
Within my mother's womb
Thank You.
 
For my eye
For my ear
For my crown
For my happiness
Thank You
For the strength and the silence that filled my body
When I started to fly
Thank You.
 
I thank before Thee...
 

The chapter no. zero

The peng birthed itself in the poet intestine of the word whale
It grew over days and years, until it wore fingers on its eyes and ears on its feet
It danced through the bloodstream of the animal, until it reached the border of its heart pumping with might
There it saw the quietly singing bing, that kept the whale alive
It creeped ahead to the animal's eye, took all its courage and excreted itself
as a tear, to merge with the ocean
The ocean was a rough soul and threw him through high waves and
torrential vortexes down into the depths of an immeasurable width
And there, in the blackest black the monster awaited him
It grabbed him with the arms of a kraken, pearled with suction cups
and pulled him into its lap softly
From that day on together they are looking for the author of the chapter no. zero
 

Absolem

Versions: #2
Welcome in the claws of then tentacle
No going back, swallowed by the spectacle
Without compass and without oracle
a difficult debacle unfolds in front of you
 
You lost your legs and your ears
Professors start drilling into your body
You can't manage coming down to the floor anymore
because the room is crooked and time is curved
 
Flee!
....as long as it's still possible
You have one second...whoops, too late
Misjudged,misplanned, missed, squandered, underestimated,
because in 2 minutes your mind will be torn apart
and renewed,
covered in syrup and burst in flames
Your heartbeat just paused
Luckily we replaced it with a beat earlier,
because this evenig we are your true carers
As a sign of our love we are slapping you in the face now
We want to see all of you naked, completely depilated
dipped into milk, mating with zebras
Drink on brotherhood with creatures of every kind
We are bacteria and that's no saying
We are bacteria and that's no saying
 

Boszorkányszombat

Az ejjeli égbe ma este szállnak a varázsi énekek,
vad nép és Lilith fajtája,
leselkedő szellek utazzatok titkosan.
 
Hadd menjünk a tüzekhez,
nyögve markoljunk meg a csillagokat,
jó és rossz szót ma is elviszünk arrébb és arrébb.
 
A fűzfában el fognak hangzani az álmaink
és a szelek énekelni fogják a dalaink.
Hadd ugorjunk a szikrákkal a tüzen át,
boszorkányszombaton.
 
Hallgassátok a hegedűket, hallgassátok a hegedűket,
a tüzeket már rakták!
Kövessetek a körtáncot, kövessetek a körtáncot
boszorkányszombaton.
 
Féktelenül a hegedűk játékában
forog az éjjeli körtáncunk
és vadul és szabadon csatlakozunk
ehhez a régi varázslathoz.
 
Egyszer csak a nagy körben
táncolunk ily módon,
amíg nem az első reggeli fény
széttöri álmaink szöveteit.
 
A fűzfában el fognak hangzani az álmaink
és a szelek énekelni fogják a dalaink.
Hadd ugorjunk a szikrákkal a tüzen át,
boszorkányszombaton.
 
Hallgassátok a hegedűket, hallgassátok a hegedűket,
a tüzeket már rakták!
Kövessetek a körtáncot, kövessetek a körtáncot
boszorkányszombaton.
 

My homeland

Versions: #2
To its air, for its water, for its stone, for the soil of it,
Thousands times my life is able sacrificed even for my only one friend.
Every corner of it is a paradise for me, I get burn by the yearning of it,
My homeland is different a bit (than others)

The lovers write legends on the mountains.
For its sheeps and wolves, for its Yunus and Emrah (are great poets)
All the world has admired to my homeland.

the life's end

there is a place without human intrusion
a place where novels have not taken place
a place where no smile characterizes the lips of the population
a kingdom, created, built, by my true self
Your self-destruct is the only key that fits in
 
I will bribe you to death
I'll cut you to pieces
I will rape you, bitch

Help Me Love

When the long darkness falls in the world
Maybe I'll try to erase this scars that torn apart
Why is our love guilty by the judgement of this world?
Dearest, I'd rather to forsake everything to follow you.
 
If you get lost on the way
I'll run to you
Please don't deny our destiny
Even if things get harder than ever
And everything changes,
We'll still love each other
 
If you get lost on the way
I'll run to you
Please don't deny our destiny
Even if things get harder than ever
And everything changes,
We'll still love each other
 
Even if everything changes,
We'll still love each other
 

Sadness

Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
The world tells me
'I love you'
Well, it is a lie and
making me a fool
The world want us only
to be good
Well, it is a lie
I tried, too
Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
For the world we live in
thinking of you, I
Try and try
Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
it notices my mind
it tells me
'Though the world lies to you,
you must keep staring me
and leave yourself behind.
For now on.'
 

The Outcasts

[Esmeralda]
I don't know if you can hear me
If so, then it depends
If even a gypsy girl
Can pray to you
 
Yes, I know that I am ostracized
The world despises me
But I see you and feel
Once you were hated like me
 
Help the outcasts
You see into their hearts
No one else feels and
Knows their pain
 
See the outcasts
In the light's shadow
Defend the outcasts
Because else you defend nothing
 
[Quasimodo:]
Help the outcasts
You see into their hearts
No one else feels and
Knows their pain
 
[Religious people:]
I ask for glory
I ask for power
I ask for honour, for prestige and splendour
For the happiness of love
On every path
I ask you, God
To bless my works
 
[Esmeralda:]
I ask for nothing
I manage
But so many others
Are worse than bad
 
Protect my friends
From poverty and derision
We are all
The children of God
 
[Quasimodo:]
Help the outcasts
 
[Esmeralda:]
Defend the outcasts, children of God
 
[Quasimodo:]
Children of God
 
[Esmeralda & Quasimodo:]
Children of God
 

Esmeralda's prayer

I don't know if you hear me
But I beg for answers
I don't know if you would listen
To the prayer I've got
 
Yes, I know I am too simple
I should be left outside
But when see your glare, I think that
Maybe you hear me after all
 
God, help the people who are in need
Show them your love and give them your support
God, help my people now, the short moment they exist
God, help the forgotten, I think you want that
 
I beg for strength, I beg for answers
I beg for light over the name I've got
Love's prayer is all I ask for
I want God's all angels to watch over me
 
I beg for the others, who are left outside
I beg from my heart and believe that you hear
Help my people, when they're suffering right now
All of us are children here, our father is you
You are the only one who can help the forgotten
 
You are allowed to use my translations, if you just remember to credit me :)

Segítség

Reggelente amikor én felkelek
Félálomba merülve ténfergek
Lelkemben hangos, torz sikoly
Minden sötét és üres
És nem tudom, hogyan oldjam meg,
És így egy labdába belerúgok
És otthonom kényelmében sírok
 
Nem tudom, miért érzem magam ilyen szarul
Azt mondom, jól vagyok, de nem vagyok jól
 
Belülről haldoklom, és csak démonokat látok
Megpróbálom elrejteni mélyebb érzéseimet
Belülről haldoklom, és csak démonokat látok
Megpróbálom elrejteni mélyebb érzéseimet
 
Azt hiszem, valami baj van velem
Mert csak a halált látom
Minden alkalommal, amikor kimegyek,
Úgy nézek ki, mint aki drogozott
És 19 óráig alszom csütörtök délután
Időről-időre véreset köhögök
És nem tudom, mit tegyek
 
Nem tudom, miért érzem magam ilyen szarul
Én nem fogok terapeutát látni
 
Hölgyeim és Uraim,
Ha kibaszottul meg akarjátok ölni magatokat,
Tegyétek fel a kibaszott kezeiteket.
Igen! Borotvapengéket a levegőbe, mindenki! * Köhögés *
Hé, oh, hé, oh, hé, hé, hé, hé, hé
Segítség, segítség, segítség, segítség, segítség, segítség, SEGÍTSÉG!
 
Belülről haldoklom, és csak démonokat látok
Megpróbálom elrejteni mélyebb érzéseimet
Belülről haldoklom, és csak démonokat látok
Megpróbálom elrejteni mélyebb érzéseimet
 

A Moment Before

Again nothing is known
And you are busy
Climbing up to tomorrow
You can't see a way
Although people talk about it
Everyone says
There's a little way to go
Between you and the light
Just take care of your heart
But you are shedding your leaves
And everything around you is gray
 
There is no chance of stopping now
A moment before
It's always a moment before
That everything happens
There is no chance of stopping now
A moment before
It's always a moment before
That everything happens
 
Again nothing is known
And you are busy
Searching for explanations
Why has the smile gone from your face
You believe that everything,
Everything is for the best
And there is a reason that everything has turned off
But there are moments in which
You have to remember that yourself
 
There is no chance of stopping now...
 
There's a little way to go
Between you and the light
Just take care of your heart
But you are shedding your leaves
And everything around you is gray.
There is a little way to go
Between you and the light,
Just take care of your heart.
You see
There at the end there's a horizon, this is the time to remember
 
That there is no chance of stopping now...
 

Palpal

[Chorus]
The name’s Palpal
With or without pretext, we celebrate
They call me Palpal
The haters force themselves
I swore Palpal
I hear nothing but I can read their lips
And I read Palpal
In two words Palpal
Hey Hey Hey Hey
 
[Verse 1]
An asshole and a good guy in the same body
A “free hugs” sign and a handgun in the
same box
I’ll do all in order to be liked as
A friend, a lover, an idol
Or a grocery store open till five in the morning
I never leave if I am still alive
I’m the winner of the game
I want a world with only mirrors
A radio that only plays my music
You need a savior, but I only wanna please myself
I was already very egocentric
Before I had anything
Doesn’t that tell you to be a bit more stylish?
I’m done speaking about myself (Pal)
 
When the happiness of others builds up
What’s the secret of happy men?
Mother said: 'act with discretion'
But it’s a lot better when others see me
It’s a lot better when others see me
Let me do what I want
 
[Verse 2]
Or instead, I risk doing it illegaly
I haven’t taken my meds
I only say shit and everyone loves it
My hyperactivity only shocks
From the tracksuit with the Chinese signs
It comes from my cells like a disc jockey
I can say “I love you” and “I’m fucking you” in plain language
Influenced by the whole world in my discs
We mix and I see folks who tell me
Insh’Allah, soon we’ll all be mixed
Hey hey hey hey
Follow me if you want to see kind monsters
We don’t have green noses, your kebab isn’t blue
But we’ve hidden a few ‘shrooms
So celebrate with us
Yanks will say “come on, come on”
Only love until death, nirvana within like Cobain
To find this bizarre world, you need a drug
Some have died in the process but
If the leaders of this world smoked this stuff
Wars would cease in two seconds max
BTW, politics can suck my. . .
I’m different from even the guys I hang with
Bet you thought I was like you
You’re obsessed with cash but you’re not Rango**
Don’t give me the same nonsense your parents swallow
You’re fucked up, you get a ride home
Mix pills and whisky, tragic
You’ll end up like Octave Parango
 
[Chorus ]
The name’s Palpal
With or without pretext, we celebrate
They call me Palpal
The haters force themselves
I swore Palpal
I hear nothing but I can read their lips
And I read Palpal
In two words Palpal
Hey Hey Hey Hey
 
[Verse 3]
An asshole and a good guy in the same body
A love letter and a knife in the
same box
I’ll do all I can to be liked, like
The doctor who says you’re HIV negative
A brother or a superhero
If all the smart guys are sad
I prefer to be a happy imbecile
I want a world where everything’s free
Society has made me a hammer
I take note of everything I buy
Since my first McDonald’s
I’d really like to give lessons
But I’m just a simple Toubab
It’s hard to have the fame of 2pac
When you’ve got a pale look
 
[Conclusion]
Ok, Pal knows how to express himself, but he knows the white trash life
This idiot’s proud, sometimes, he screams, at times, he spits
Maybe wealth alone doesn’t make one happy
But trust me, poverty is a river of pain.
I forgot my umbrella
In case it rains dollars
 

Most úgy érzed örökre

Hallgass, Hallgass,
Ne mondj egy szót sem.
Az erőtlen jajgatást alig lehet hallani.
Egy vihar van a horizonnál, alig
Ne állj meg
Suhanj végig a napokon
Mint a gyerekek akik nem tudnak ébren maradni
Maradj itt romlatlanul és beszélj....
 
Maradj mig a dallamot éneklik,
Törj, zúz, mint a tajtékzó hullám
Biztosra tudom, nem tudok többet mondani
Csak azt tudom, hogy ez nem lesz igy örökre.
 
Fuss, Siess
Vigyél el.
Mint a homokóra homokja, ami sosem szabadul
Csillagok születnek és aztán hunynak ki, de gondtalanul
Egy kicsi óra ami ketyeg időtlenül
És az óceán szemei figyelik
Vég, emelkedés és aztán....
 
Maradj mig a melódiákat éneklik,
Törj, mint a tajtékzó hullám
Biztosra tudom, nem tudok többet mondani
Csak azt tudom, hogy ez nem lesz igy örökre.
Csak azt tudom, hogy ez nem lesz igy örökre.
 

Különleges

Hé! Mindenki kaphat szeretet
Mindenkit meg lehet fektetni.
Tudod majd ha hazaértél
mikor megtalálod azokat, akik maradnak
akik elég bátrak nem csak meghúzni
Azok lobbantanak lángra
piszkáld meg a parazsat és nézd ahogy ragyogsz
 
Ők azok, akik segitenek bizni az univerzumban
Ha el vagy veszve és hátra vagy hagyva és minden csak rosszabb lesz
Ők azok, akik ott lesznek neked
 
Mi mind különlegesek vagyunk
És ez soha de soha nem fog megváltozni
Mi mind különlegesek vagyunk
És ez soha de soha nem fog megváltozni
 
Ahhh oooh ah ah ah ah ah yeah eh yeah
Yeah eh yeah
Ahhh oooh ah ah ah ah ah yeah eh yeah
Yeah eh yeah
Ahhh oooh ah ah ah ah ah yeah eh yeah
Yeah eh yeah
Ahhh oooh ah ah ah ah yeah eh yeah
Yeah eh yeah
 
Hé! Mindenki tud pénzhez jutni
mindenkit meg lehet menteni
Még mindig minden nap megyek a vadonba
Az egyetlen dolog amit látok
Az egyetlen igazi garancia
Amikoris elkapok egy mindent tudó mosolyt.
 
Ők azok, akik segitenek bizni az univerzumban
Ha el vagy veszve és hátra vagy hagyva és minden csak rosszabb lesz
Ők azok, akik ott lesznek neked
 

Kalp Şeklinde Yara

Işıkta bir değişim görüyorum
Gecede bir ateş
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Renklerin geri geldiğini görüyorum
Karanlıkta bir açıklık
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Ben asla değişmeyeceğim
Asla istemedim
Duyduklarımıza sağır kaldık
Doğruyu görmeliyiz
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Biliyorum defalarca kez hata yaptım
Ama bebeğim, kör değilim
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Bulacağın şey söylenmiyor
Böyle şeyler her zaman olur
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Tüm bu yanlışlarla uzun zamandır kör bir şekilde koşuyorduk
Ama çığlıklar çok yüksekti
Onları durduramadık
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 

Two Hearts

The shortest way between two hearts:
Outstretched to each other and betimes
Touch one another only through fingertips
Two arms.
 
Rushing towards the stairs,
Waiting is the embodiment of time.
Came too early, cannot find you,
It is as if something is being rehearsed.
 
Gathered have and migrating are the birds,
If only I loved you ad hoc.
 
PS: Any piece of constructive criticism will be very appreciated!

Tulips from Amsterdam

When spring arrives I will send you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When spring arrives I will pick for you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When I come back again I will bring you
Tulips from Amsterdam
A thousand yellow ones, a thousand red ones
They wish you the very best
What my mouth can't say (what I can't speak)
Tulips from Amsterdam will say
 
Jan (male name) from the county side said: Antje (female name)
Oh dear child, I like you
How can it be done dear Antje
Tomorrow I go to The Hague
And at the old mill
Under a sky so blue sounded
I love you and you love me
Oh Antje, I'll always be loyal to you
 
When spring arrives I will send you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When spring arrives I will pick for you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When I come back again I will bring you
Tulips from Amsterdam
A thousand yellow ones, a thousand red ones
They wish you the very best
What my mouth can't say (what I can't speak)
Tulips from Amsterdam will say
 

Valparaíso

He experienced Valparaíso, his heart burdened with a heavy secret.
The world was a brazier Valparaíso pulled him out of.
So many lights and colors and so many ruined beauties
shifted the weights his heart could no longer lift.
On Valparaíso heights, on a clear day,
she watched the cranes loading the hungry bellies of the ships.
She watched life go by or catalogued the colors.
Never disappointed, never jaded, her heat laden like a tanker.
 
In the Cinzano restaurant where they had agreed to meet,
an old lady sang 'Solo tu' while mending her sweater.
There he chatted about anything but the important thing, of course.
Seeing each other was what mattered, and listening to 'Solo tu'
'Solo tu'1
 
He didn't know she knew, and he had little choice but not trying
to confide what he forgot about when he was with her.
One day, just to do like everyone, he talked about love, but too early.
She said 'I know your secret' and he went away without a word.
 
Oh, Valparaíso is so beautiful with its colors, his dilapidations,
this labyrinth where the wind wanders, the woman singing at the Cinzano.
A secret, the city will take it and keep it under its cloak,
and those who uncover it do the same, in Valparaíso.

Frozen Heart

The winter's wind is as cold as ice, and so it's mountains and it's rivers
It has a heart sleazy and grifter, let's dig into it
 
Just one stroke, right in the middle
With the lust for it and with the fear from it
Was the lake shiny and beautiful before?
Split it into two
Break this frozen heart
 
A heart (with feelings), just let it go
Watch out, just let it go
 
Beautiful, really strong, dangerous, cold
The ice is magical and peculiar
Stronger than me, than all of us, than everyone else
 
The winter's wind is as cold as ice, and so it's mountains and it's rivers
It has a heart sleazy and grifter, let's dig into it
 
Just one stroke, right in the middle
With the lust for it and with the fear from it
Were you also shiny and beautiful before?
Split it into two
Turned into a bunch of frozen hearts
 

Esmeralda's Prayer

Can you hear me, the most gracious?
Tell me are you there?
In your kindness, will you listen
what resides in my heart?
Maybe you think: you pauper,
how dare you speak to me?
I see your face and and I think
that you were a pauper too
 
God, give bread to the paupers every day
To those who are despised, give paradise at least after death
God, give hope to the poor 'cause
If you fail, who will save them?
 
(Choir)
Give me might,
give me fame,
give me appreciation for the rest of my days.
I want love, give me it,
And I want God to save my soul
 
I don't ask for anything, who cares about this?
When there are so many people poorer than me around...
God, give your children hope 'cause
If you fail, who will save them?
Save those who know the bottom of despair...
 

'For a long time the volleys of the guns fell silent'

The volleys of guns falls silent,
Above us is only sunlight, -
On what are people tested,
If the war is no more?
 
You hear quite often
Now, as then:
'Would you go with him on a reconnaissance?'
No or yes?'
 
Do not gasp, the armor is not piercing already,
And the death notification is not found under the door,
And it seems as if everything is calm,
Nowhere opens now ...
 
But all the same we hear quite often
Now, as then:
'Would you go with him on a reconnaissance?'
No or yes?'
 
I know the quiet there is only a dream, -
Prepare, hold on and fight! -
There is a peaceful front line -
Trouble, and danger, and risk.
 
Therefore we hear quite often
Now, as then:
'Would you go with him on a reconnaissance?'
No or yes?'
 
In the fields mines are rendered harmless,
But we are not on a field of flowers, -
You are the quest, the stars, the depths
And we do not consider the costs anymore.
 
Therefore we hear quite often,
If trouble comes:
'Would you go with him on a reconnaissance?'
No or yes?
 

Snow

Versions: #2
The night poured snow, like a tattered moon pillow
A disco of stars, on the city of boulders.
Fear the white whisper, it leaves no trace
With a glimmering knife in hand, sneaking among the houses...
 
He won't come back, Do not wait. The steam freezes breath,
He's halfway in the path of, oncoming headlights.
He crosses the world, along beds of noisy rivers,
Like tunnels of black holes, through the melancholy snow..
 
The diamond pollen of, a fading flower dream,
is wasted endlessly, in city squares.
And from her to him, running across the earth,
it seems so easy, to follow white snow.
 

Does this heart beat ?

If you don't exist,does this heart beat ?
If you don't hear,does it scream ?
Darling ! please don't run from me
If you don't exist,does this soul live ?
 
Which soul suffered like I suffered ?
Which heart loved you as mine ?
Which heart wanted to die for you ?
 
If you don't exist,do I become happy ?
If you don't stay,does the sorrow end ?
Darling ! please don't run from me
If you don't exist,does this soul live ?
 
Which soul suffered like I suffered ?
Which heart loved you as mine ?
Which heart wanted to die for you ?
Please darling ! listen to me for the last time
 
Ahmet KADI

I am guilty

Stare at my eyes
And check for yourself that I say
The truth you always wanted
To hear love of my lips
 
I don't fool you by apologizing
For the harm I could cause to you
Don't turn around looking for a guilty
I am guilty
 
For having you forgotten
For letting the love die
For refusing my hand to you
I am guilty
 
Stare at my eyes
And try to understand me
It's not you only who loses
This hit hurts us both
 
But I don't lack the bravery
But I never stayed quiet before anyone
Please don't feel guilty
I am guilty

One Day. . .Death

One day, Death, that great demonic woman
Invited me into her fantastical abode.
For a long time, she had observed me, spied on me
Using her gifts, her magical charms.
She arched her feline rump,
Half-closed her sleep-heavy eyelids
Behind which shone two eyes of ambush.
Breath coming short, lips parted
She murmured: come to my home, come, come
Approach, come roll yourself up in my rest
My rest - rest - rest - eternal rest.
So, cutting my umbilical-cord emblem
I absorbed three tubes of restful sleeping-pills.
Thus began the maelstrom of decadence
Similar to that of the land which bore me
The killer-governments were always in place
Napalm burned our houses and our fields
The rich burst before the working class
Everywhere, there was nothing but tumult, war-cries
I ran, seeking to protect the children
The children, shit, why do that to children
The nursery-schools were leaping with dynamite
The Spanish houses of cards were collapsing
Victims of congenital malformations
Were the only ones left standing, victorious.
The Elysees, the White Houses, the Kremlins,
The cream-caramels, the chocolate creams--
Say, Death, dear woman, beautiful Death
You're squeezing me a little too close, too tightly
I'm not really a lesbian, you know?
Your arms, encircling me, hinder my breathing
Your perfume is making me nauseous--
Say, Death, dear woman, beautiful Death
On this side of the hereafter,
Where can one find the way of Love--
On earth, I refused the lie, the vanity of Being
Here, the typists tap on their bongos
Horrible rhythms which thunder through my entrails--
Say, Death, dear woman, beautiful Death
Send me back to that side of Life
I want to know the love of Peter-the-Recalcitrant
I still need to give and to receive
I need to fight for a new world
I want to know the Year 01 that our friends were talking about
I still want to build snowmen
In winter, on the white roofs of the factories
I want to blow up the highways
And walk in the tall grass of the countryside
I want to embrace boys and girls
Open-mouthed, kissing their hot lips
I want to get drunk on the saliva of my beloved
I want to love and to die a natural death
Like everyone, two feet in my shoes*--
Give me Life again, Death, Beautiful Death
And I will make you a child.
