Rain

It’s quite a common thing,
in some cases,
that it rains1
(it rains, ladies and gentlemen).
You know these facts
also about our climate:
that it rains.
And, in fact, happiness
goes away more often
when it rains.
And you chase it
with your thoughts all soaked,
because it rains.
Because it rains.
 
Me too, I got bestowed
by fate with some sourness,
when it was raining.
It was a simple story,
so I turned up my collar
and walked into the rain.
The pavement shone like a mirror
and the place was quite empty,
because it was raining.
The rain wasn’t talking about lilacs,
it wasn’t composing songs,
it was just raining.
Raining, just raining.
 
And then it became
definitely brighter,
although it was raining.
Someone approached me
and said: 'You’re getting so wet,
and it’s raining so much!'
And you know what was next:
a ray of sun shone through,
although it was raining...
Not true, that’s just rumour!
Because nobody met me,
it was just raining.
It was just raining,
just raining, just raining.
 
  • 1. In Polish we say: 'rain falls', 'snow falls', etc.

I'll Caress Your Hair

If I only knew you wanted me
I'd do all I can to love you
I have so much love to give you
When I pass by and I see her leaning on the window
I just wish to touch her hair
 
I can't even sleep anymore
If I go to bed, I dream about her
Lai, laiá
Because I'd do all that only to love you
 
I'll caress your hair when we go to bed
I'll make you coffee when you get up
I'll spoon-feed you
Satisfy your thirst
I'll set up my hammock
And I'll swing you on it

Meadow trails

The meadow trails, when do they look beautiful?
At the very time when the wild roses are in bloom.
And our village, when does it look beautiful?
At the very time when we are young.
 
So let us get singing, girls,
The girls' voices, oh, they ring like little handbells.
Oh, why shouldn't the girls' voices ring like little bells
When the girl age is, alas, their only delight.

You and me

With you nothing scared me
with you I felt safe and at peace
by your side I dared to fly
but I had to land
 
With you I slept peacefully
with you it was so easy to dream
in our eyes it was possible
check that it exists
real love
 
Chorus: it's wanting to see your smile
even if you are with someone else
it hurts to remember
that it is for you
that my soul knows
what it is to feel
that I knew the magic
of passion
tattooed on a heart
there will always be a you and me
 
And I lived with the hope
that fate
would bring you here
in my soul I always
keep your place
even if I have to forget you
 
Chorus 1x

Virgin

If every intention is misunderstood, how is it that you all are adults?
To me who loves vastnesses, you just have to throw a punch
but throwing a punch costs fatigue, ruins your best clothes
Will this be the price of adapting?
'Cause as you can see, I'm not an expert of this culture
I remain standing apart, because this is the part that I prefer.
 
From here, I want to set fire to your cathedral
and to you, who plays the part of the Virgin but who doesn't got what it takes.
From here, I want to set fire to your cathedral
How is it that I don't believe you and I don't beg/pray to you? No,
You don't got what it takes
 
How I wanted for everything to have been given to me!
But it's a low and dishonest thing,
I'll be merciless with myself.
But throwing a punch costs fatigue, ruins your best clothes
Will this be the price of adapting?
'Cause as you can see, I'm not an expert of this culture
I remain standing apart, because this is the part that I prefer.
 
From here, I want to set fire to your cathedral
and to you, who plays the part of the Virgin but who doesn't got what it takes.
From here, I want to set fire to your cathedral
How is it that I don't believe you and I don't beg/pray to you? No,
You don't got what it takes
 
Golden bridges towards nothingness*
 
From here, I want to set fire to your cathedral
and to you, who plays the part of the Virgin but who doesn't got what it takes.

Heaven In Between Us

Do you have time for me
Can I come in
I'd love to hear you say that you're only mine
We can climb higher
Up the mountains and peaks
Feel the breeze take us where tough thoughts disappear
 
I see the clouds pass by
And I feel that I'm free
Something sparkles in the water
Shines above the land
And with my hand in yours
The moment can give us a heaven in between us
 
We have struggled enough now
Both you and I
The days have been long and cold, we almost lost our faith
But the snow melts now
Our cheeks are warm
We have left the darkness behind, forgotten the cold Northern winds
 
We see the clouds pass by
And we feel that we're free
Something sparkles in the water
Shines above the land
And with my hand in yours
The moment can give us a heaven in between us
 
I see the clouds pass by
And I feel that we're free
Something sparkles in the water
Shines above the land
And with my hand in yours
The moment will give us a heaven in between us
 
Yes, a heaven in between us

Hello, Miss

Versions: #2
It's rumored her name is Maria, Maria, Maria
Who would have said she would make me fall in love with her that day, that day?
Heya, hello miss, tell me if you think everything has been said
I don't know how to dance so tonight I'll keep a low profile
She is a beautiful miss from head to toes
But what I like more is when she speaks French
Dance, dance, hottie
Dance, dance, hottie
 
From L.A. to France, baby, what elegance!
Chanel, Dior perfume, baby, what smell
It's delicious, delicious, you look scrumptious
I just wanna be inside, feel your emotions
You send me an emoji, the type with devil face
Why don't you tell me upfront? Baby, talk clearly
In this story I don't wanna be the bad guy
Don't send signals, let's get to the point
 
Tell me, tell me, if you and me can go
To a far away place
Keep on moving
 
It's rumored her name is Maria, Maria, Maria
Who would have said she would make me fall in love with her that day, that day?

But what I like more is when she speaks French
Dance, dance, hottie
Dance, dance, hottie
 
Tell me what you want, tell me what you are waiting from me
I saw you appear and disappear like a ninja
You understand things about me, you know, I already know that
I hold you, you run away from me
silent like a cat
Good luck to the one who will marry you
I will be happy to call you, Maria
Under the sun of Santa Monica, or Santa Maria, eh
 
Tell me what you want, tell me what you are waiting from me
I saw you appear and disappear like a ninja
You understand things about me, you know, I already know that
I hold you, you run away from me
silent like a cat
Always on the lookout, on the lookout for some money
Not easy to love with a heart behind bars
I lost a lot of blood, it would be time to make a garrotte
Just after the aperitif, I love you, I want you
 
It's rumored her name is Maria, Maria, Maria
Who would have said she would make me fall in love with her that day, that day?

All Stars In The Sky

All stars in the sky
I will give them to you
But you never responded in my love
 
Now l look at the sky
To give me a glance
Gold dust in my eyes comes
What should it tell me?
 
All the stars in the sky
I look at them now
In the nightsky
They are bright like fireflies upon the ocean
 
All stars in the sky
I will give them to you
But you never responded in my love
 
But all stars in the sky
They show me the way some day
To see you again
 
'Revenge is never a straight line. It's a forest, and like a forest, it's easy to lose your way.. to get lost... to forget where you came in.' ~ Hattori Hanzo

María Lionza

In the Sorte mountain by way of the Yaracuy
In Venezuela, lives a goddess
In the Sorte mountain by way of the Yaracuy
Lives a goddess, a noble queen
Of great beauty and of great goodness
Beloved by nature
And illuminated by charity
 
And her walls are made of wind
And her roof is made of stars
The moon, the sun, the sky
And the mountain her companions
The rivers,streams, and flowers
Are her messengers
 
Oh Hail Queen, María Lionza
For Venezuela she's going with her onza
And is taking care of it
 
And she goes watching over her entire land
From the peasant to Cumaná
Taking care of the destiny of the Latinos
Living united and in liberty
 
In the Sorte Mountain by way of Yaracuy
In Venezuela
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
A bouquet of flowers, of white flowers
Like the purity of your goodness
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
All of the people up in Los Cerritos
And there in Caracas, protect them
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
Lady María, at all costs
To the East freeway I'm going to take it
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
And she goes taking care of her Venezuela
From the peasant to Cumaná
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
It was by way of the Guanaguanare River
That Coromoto saw her shining
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
She is the queen that the town adores
She is the most popular goddess
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
Flowers for your altar
Lady María, I'm going to take for you
 
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
 
With tobacco and liquor
The ceremony is going to start now
María Lionza, perform a little miracle for me
And a bouquet of flowers I'm going to take you
 
We say good-bye with a greeting
From Puerto Rico and from Panama

The Dark Night

I want to go
along streets that I don’t know
and see a distant light,
like a hope.
 
I want to dream
of meeting you one day,
look into your eyes
and feel, even for a moment,
the enchantment of a deep love…
 
I want to stop one day,
tired for the long way,
on a white stone
near my house
and feel the warm wind of evening
on my body
and my soul immersed in the peace,
and then leave everything in the world
that spins furiously, relentlessly
and get to where one never dies.

 
The dark night
covers the moon
and the wind passes fast
fleeing in the streets,
I go around the world
looking for whatever.
 
I want to go
along streets that I’ve never seen
and see a distant light,
like a hope.
 
I want to think of seeing you one day
and look into your heart
and feel, even for a moment,
the enchantment of a deep love.
 
I want to stop one day,
tired for the hard way,
on a white stone
near my house
and feel the warm wind of evening
on my hands, folded in prayer,
with my soul full of peace.
 
And then leave everything in the world
that spins and goes relentlessly
in order to get to where one never dies.

Sunday in Lisboa

There's no Sunday without sun
Say the people and no without reason
Because it always appears
On Sundays in Lisboa
 
Desert streets or almost
Passes a couple holding hands
It's on Sunday that she
Walks with her boyfriend
 
Sunday in Lisboa and Lisboa is different
It's calm, it's peaceful and it's closer to us
Flags in the Castle that Sé blesses
Tejo shines even more, it's Sunday in Lisboa
 
Sunday in Lisboa and Lisboa is different
It's calm, it's peaceful and it's closer to us
Flags in the Castle that Sé blesses
Tejo shines even more, it's Sunday in Lisboa
 
It's Sunday in Lisboa
There are walks in the boulevard
There is chirping from sparrows
That are an anthem to life itself
 
To hearts side by side
A song that is sang
And at night is heard the fado
On Sunday in Lisboa
 
Sunday in Lisboa and Lisboa is different
It's calm, it's peaceful and it's closer to us
Flags in the Castle that Sé blesses
Tejo shines even more, it's Sunday in Lisboa
 
Sunday in Lisboa and Lisboa is different
It's calm, it's peaceful and it's closer to us
Flags in the Castle that Sé blesses
Tejo shines even more, it's Sunday in Lisboa
 
Sunday in Lisboa and Lisboa is different
It's calm, it's peaceful and it's closer to us
Flags in the Castle that Sé blesses
Tejo shines even more, it's Sunday in Lisboa
 
It's Sunday in Lisboa, it's Sunday in Lisboa
It's Sunday in Lisboa, it's Sunday in Lisboa

Goodbye, Maria

Goodbye, goodbye, Maria,
the dawn will come without you
and alone will I go my way.
 
Goodbye, goodbye, Maria—
kiss me again—gaze at me again—
on your last look will I live.
 
Tonight the most beautiful dream dies—
tomorrow you will no longer be mine.
Melancholy awaits me far away from you.
 
Goodbye, goodbye, Maria,
what I will miss even more
will be the love of my woman.

Sky-blue eyes

I still remember how it happened
That feeling when I saw you
It was the first time
I had no choice
I had never seen anything like that before
 
Your sky, sky, sky-blue eyes
Take me closer and closer to the sky
This sky, sky-blue is hard to believe
You're simply wonderful
 
Your sky, sky, sky-blue eyes
Take me closer and closer to the sky
This sky, sky-blue is hard to believe
You're simply wonderful
 
Your sky, sky, sky-blue eyes
Take me closer and closer to the sky
This sky, sky-blue is hard to believe
You're simply wonderful
 
There were so many dark days
That's been over since I met you
You bring the sunshine
Deep into my heart
I had never seen anything like that before
(Never seen before)
 
Your sky, sky, sky-blue eyes
Take me closer and closer to the sky
This sky, sky-blue is hard to believe
You're simply wonderful
 
Your sky, sky, sky-blue eyes
Take me closer and closer to the sky

Wherever you love on this earth

The homeland is that which is admired from afar
An extinguished oil lamp
The beloved tear
The handkerchief of pain
 
Dawn from the Dodecanese
From the Cyclades a holy vow
An Armenian complaint
And crying from Smyrna
 
Wherever you love on this earth
Rose is the color of the dawn
Rose is the color of the dawn
Even in a faraway place
Sweetly the morning star appears
Sweetly the morning star appears
 
The homeland is the unexpected meeting
Tortures suffered with pain
But also the bride’s joy
When she is in love.
 
The one returning to the homeland and the emigre
The harvest and the winters
The light and the fruitless line
The thorn and the anemones
 
Wherever you love on this earth
Rose is the color of the dawn
Rose is the color of the dawn
Even in a faraway place
Sweetly the morning star appears
Sweetly the morning star appears

The First Date

Ah! How sweet and disturbing it must be—
that moment on the first date,
when the heart, tired of beating alone,
flies away in a thrill towards the mystery.
 
You, stranger of a crazed dream,
bring about for us
the happiness of loving for an entire life
at that moment of the first date.
 
When Old Man Time
on a beautiful spring day
made from a simple child
almost a woman.
In the blue dream
of a happy future,
closing her eyes,
she sighs in the depths of her soul.
 
Ah! How sweet and disturbing it must be—

Santa Maria of the Sea

Little Madonna, who looks out over the sea,
Santa Maria,
with your cloak the color of blue sky,
Santa Maria.
Little Mother of the son of God,
keep us in your thoughts,
and remember the sorrows that, without speaking,
my eyes reveal.
 
An abundant rain,
Santa Maria,
gives us wheat in the fields—
thousands of flowers, too.
And protect us always,
Santa Maria.
Give us all of your love
and the light of Heaven.
 
Little Madonna of gracious love,
if they beg you
and they implore you with much fervor
that you help them—
Little Mother of the son of God,
because your story
is the story of so many souls
that are devout
 
An abundant rain,
Santa Maria,
gives us wheat in the fields—
thousands of flowers, too.
And protect us always,
Santa Maria.
Give us all of your love
and the light of Heaven.

Remember Maria

Tomorrow, at midnight, the entire earth
will sing for you, Ave Maria.
I am alone on my knees on the stone
and I come to tell you to remember.
Remember me in a white dress
when love was close to me.
And I said yes, Maria des Anges,
yes, forever, Mary, remember?
And I loved him so much—
more than my life—
but one day,
he left.
 
At the foot of the cross tonight, Maria,
me—I come to confess to you my sorrow.
I am but a child but I love him.
On my knees, I pray to you: give him to me.
I am but a child but I love him.
On my knees, I pray to you: give him to me.

Only because you loved me

I only sing because you loved me
In the past years.
And in sun, in summer’s premonition
And in rain and snow,
I only sing because you loved me.
 
Only because you held me in your arms
One night and you kissed my lips,
Only for this am I beautiful as an wide-open lily
And I still have a shiver in my soul,
Only because you held me in your arms.
 
Only because your eyes looked at me
With the soul in the glance,
Proudly I adorned the ultimate
Crown of my being,
Only because your eyes looked at me.
 
Only because you noticed me as I passed
And in your glance I saw
My slender shadow passing like a dream
Playing, hurting
Only because you noticed me as I passed
 
Because you hesitantly called me
And you reached for my hand
And you had a dazzle in your eyes
- A complete love,
Because you hesitantly called me.
 
Because, only because you liked it
That’s why my passing remained beautiful.
It was as if you were following me wherever I went,
As if you were passing by somewhere close to me.
Because, only because you liked it.
 
Only because you loved me was I born,
That's why life was given to me.
In the graceless, unfulfilled life
My life was fulfilled.
Only because you loved me was I born.
 
Only for your fine love
Did the dawn give roses in my hands.
So that I light your way for a moment
The night filled the eyes with stars,
Only for your fine love.
 
Only because you loved me so beautifully
I lived in order to multiply
Your dreams, beautiful king
And thus sweetly I die
Only because you loved me so beautifully.

45 brains and one heart

Silence!
 
They found
Where they always knew
They were
45 brains and one heart
 
In front of such a discovery
And the amazement of the present ones
They saw the light, conserved
Like bodies of pharaos
 
Here, without myth or rite
Left to time
Wrapped up in mud
Near some urbanization
45 brains and 1 heart
 
Silence!
They're still there in silence
Their longings suspended
Dirty fate
Their dreams whisper
Dirty silence, yes
They're still there
 
They found
Where they always knew
They were
45 brains and 1 heart
 
In front of such a discovery
And the amazement of the present ones
They saw the light, conserved
Like bodies of pharaos
 
The soil made them of themselves and ours
Heaven had them alive and dead
Jewels of modern fortgetfulness
Who forgets, who remembers?
 
45 brains and one heart
 
Silence!
 
Tell me, death, little death of mine
Where will you burn?
The lady answers:
'I will come at dawn
I will come at nightfall
I will come where you will be'
 
My time is not your time
It wanted to explain
That I live in the stones
The ones of today and the ones of yesterday
I am the course of the world
I am only a second
Afterwards there will be no afterwards
 
After eighty years
After eight decades
While I sing
While he plays
While you listen to me
While you breathe
While, during, afterwards
They're still there
In silence

Goods

It might seem innocent to you
But even so, it is evident
that not even the most eloquent
and not even thousands of serpent's tongues
could answer me
if someone, among so many people,
including the claircoyants
with their budding visions
sees in recent history
of Orient and Occident
a reason that nourishes
this insane dimension
if my mind does not lie to me
someone among the listeners
could answer me
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes:
If water has an owner
who owns light?
Who owns this soil?
Who profits off of our
sky?
who profits off of our
sun?

Tenderly, Anne Marie

Anne Marie, tonight you are with me
and the past already no longer exists—
images that now
no longer remain for us.
 
Tenderly, tonight I will dream
about my new life together with you—
but now, love, no,
tell me nothing more.
It is enough for me to imagine the words you will say.
 
And how,
like the first time, you know,
I do not ask you what we are about anymore.
It is enough to just have you here.
But kiss me on the eyes
and tell me good night
so that I can dream.
 
Anne Marie, tonight I will dream
about my new life together with you—
but now love, no,
tell me nothing more.
It is enough for me to imagine the words you will say.
 
It is enough for me just to have you here.
If I close my eyes, touched by your kisses,
I no longer want to think—
I want to fall asleep.
 
Tenderly, love.
 
Anne Marie, love.

Ave Maria

Ave Maria! Virgin of heaven—
Queen of gratitude and pious mother—
who always answers the fervent prayer.
Do not refuse this, my broken heart.
Give respite to its sorrow!
My lost soul appeals to you—
and, full of hope, prostrates itself at your feet.
It invokes you and waits for you to give it
the peace that only you can give.
Ave Maria!

A Girl Named Mary Rose

I was speeding on a motorcycle on a Monday.
The cold wind ripped into me.
In every street, she was there.
She flagged me down and I stopped.
 
My lights reflected in her eyes
and her hair was the color of yellow wheat.
(Her hair was the color of yellow wheat.)
She was dressed in colorful clothes.
In the meadows together, we picked flowers.
(In the meadows together, we picked flowers.)
 
A girl named Mary Rose—
grass and wheat—
hair blowing loose in the wind.
With my eyes closed, I think of her
and I no longer forget—I don't know.
Now I know that we die alone.
How love hurts!
Mary Rose, how it hurts!
 
The setting sun, the sky fades,
the cold ride back to return.
Distant lights of the city.
Mary Rose, where will she be?
 
The motorcycle still warm in the garage.
Without eating, I throw myself in bed.
(Immediately I throw myself in bed.)
In the dark I see her colorful clothes.
In the meadows together, we picked flowers.
(In the meadows together, we picked flowers.)
 
A girl named Mary Rose—
grass and wheat—
hair blowing loose in the wind.
With my eyes closed, I think of her
and I no longer forget—I don't know.
Now I know that we die alone.
How love hurts!
Mary Rose, how it hurts!
 
With my eyes closed, I think of you,
Mary Rose!
To forget— I don't know.
Now I know that we die alone.
How love hurts!

Helen of Troy

The neighbourhood can't hold us
We must set sail
What was this sudden thing
Who would expect it..
She was married,
Helen of Troy.
 
They will pay dearly for it
No more jokes.
They will beg and apologise,
We'll see what it means..
The damned
Helen of Troy.
 
Doesn't matter if everyone knows
That she went of her own free will.
We, like kins and insulted lovers,
Will insist
Poor Helen of Troy
Didn't want to.

Autumn

Sterner than an icon, dark face,
 
There, in the garden.
 
Tightly shifted eyebrows.
 
The colour of blood, cruel mouth...
 
-I'm waiting, come out...-
 
Splashing, waving with the black crepe:
 
I'm breathing with an open crypt,
 
I'll throw down, weave the mist around
 
The last star
 
I'll bend with bloodless stature.
 
On the slops, on meadows
 
Like a wild hurricane I'll come down,
 
Scatter everywhere braids...
 
To go out before into the boundless world
 
I could not.
 
With secret is shrouded my palace,
 
And for you my accidental friend,
 
I watched out.
 
Do you hear, unsteady rain is dripping,
 
With a bit of rustle...
 
In my broken violin-
 
All of my soul.
 
Listen to the strings, sing with me,
 
With dark, dead and intoxicated...
 
The string squeal and screamed,
 
Here, it's sings, it's calling,
 
And, breaking into a wild run
 
Leaves are dancing on the road,
 
The forest moans in plangent cry,
 
In anxiety the grass start to bow...
 
Past a scary face,
 
Past her tired lips
 
Without no end, they race and race
 
Waterfalls of scarlet leaves.
 
Over the distance in twilight-
 
Airplanes from brocade.
 
Curling into the spiral,
 
Tornadoes are scattered far away.
 
Listen to the strings, sing with me,
 
With dark, dead and intoxicated...
 
We have known free open spaces,-
 
Further, higher, out from the circle we run,-
 
With insomnia and rave
 
We have made each other drunk.
 
In the splash, the rustle and chaos,
 
Where struggling light is dying,
 
I'm flying... Behind me the footprints
 
Autumn sweeps with violin.

María Landó

Daybreak bursts out like a statue
Statue with wings that spread out over the city
And the noon-hour sings like a bell made of water
Bell of golden water that won't let us feel loneliness
And the night lifts up its grand goblet
Its grand goblet, the early moon above the sea.
 
But for María there is no daybreak
But for María there is no noon
But for María no moon
Lifts its red goblet above the sea
 
María has no time (María Landó)
To lift up her eyes
María to lift up her eyes (María Landó)
Exhausted by lack of sleep
María exhausted by lack of sleep (María Landó)
And by suffering
María by suffering (María Landó)
Only works
María only works, only works, only works
María only works
And her work belongs to others
 
But for María there is no daybreak
But for María there is no noon
But for María no moon
Lifts its red goblet above the sea
 
María has no time (María Landó)
To lift up her eyes
María to lift up her eyes (María Landó)
Exhausted by lack of sleep
María exhausted by lack of sleep (María Landó)
And by suffering
María by suffering (María Landó)
Only works
María only works, only works, only works
María only works
And her work belongs to others
 
María Landó, María Landó, María Landó
María Landó only works
María Landó only works
María Landó
Only works
María Landó
Only works, and her work belongs to others

Those Who Wear the Skirt Well

Men of the world
Stop and listen for a second
'Cause it seems so absurd to us
What you sound like out there
 
Stupid songs
With lyrics that don't respect us
And I can't wrap my head around
Why you paint us that way.
 
We are much more than sex
A pair of breasts, a nice body
Under our hair we have a brain
A heart to feel
 
We are much more than that
Open your eyes 'cause these are different times
And from us you were born
There's nothing more to say.
 
Excuse me?
Ay Ay Ay the ones in charge are here now
Those who wear the skirt well
Those of us who know how to live (that's right)
Ay Ay Ay the ones in charge are here now
Those who wear the skirt well
The ones who can make you feel (I am Ivy Queen)
 
All the women (All)
All the women (All)
All the women
Let's sing loudly so that they hear us
All the women (All)
All the women (All)
All the women
Let's sing loudly that yes you can.
(Yes you can, man)
 
Those of us in charge have arrived, in pants or in skirts
Women do not fall. Get up!
'Cause we're the gift to this planet
And whoever hits us like that sins
Man, respect us!
Respect what we can do, without any opposition
That we have a brain, intelligence, and a heart
That there are many in the fight
It's not the same to hurt one
 
Men of the world
To clarify this point for you
We are the same, we are one
There's nothing more to say
(We won't let ourselves go)
 
Ay Ay Ay the ones in charge are here now
Those who wear the skirt well (that's right)
Those of us who know how to live (we know how to live man)
Ay Ay Ay the ones in charge are here now (the ones in charge)
Those who wear the skirt well (Yes Sir)
The ones who can make you feel.
 
All the women (All)
All the women (All)
All the women
Let's sing loudly so that they hear us (Yes Sir)
All the women (All)
All the women (All)
All the women
Let's sing loudly that yes we can
 
Women!
We are more than sex
We're an I love you
We're an I can
We're an example
We're more than sex (sex)
We're an I love you (I love you)
We're an I can
There's nothing more to say
 
Ay Ay Ay the ones in charge are here now
Those who wear the skirt well
The ones who can make you feel
Oh oh oh

Sardinians

Tonight, mama,
I’ve heard famous men
Singing
In a chorus with God.
 
Give me back my life,
Great voice of the heaven.
Till my departure
May the pain be sweet to me.
 
Sardinians who bear their land in their hearts
Sardinian is their blood
Sardinians like rocks, fighting everywhere
Strong souls, just like you

 
Tonight, mama,
We’re all together.
Only one wish,
That of the Sardinians like you.
 
Sons of history
Sons of unity
We are the memory
We’re today, we’re tomorrow
 
Sardinians who bear their land in their hearts
Sardinian is their blood
Sardinians like rocks, fighting everywhere
Strong souls, just like you (x2)
