Dreams
Fly away with your dreams, your dreams are beautiful.It's like they are always fresh and colorful.
Look at our garden, our flowers are sad.
Go somewhere that its butterflies laugh.
Go, go, I know very well,
I know how kind you are.
Go, go, what can I say?
You know everything already.
Fly away, go, fear not, tomorrows are beautiful.
From above, from far above, smile 'cause your smile's beautiful.
Go, the world won't be like this forever.
One won't stay alone forever.
Go, fear not, I will be here.
Forever my eyes on the sky (waiting) for you.
Fly through (or away from) dreams, dreams are beautiful.
It's like they are always in fight with reality.
Fly away...

Blue flowers
Your heart is a meadow, with blue flowers.Dow drops fall from these flowers in the morning.
There is a trace of rainbow in your eyes.
They have an ethereal heavenly cabin.
(They have a heavenly cabin, they have such a sky.)
There there, the moth sings all day long.
My heart will be with you forever.
The fresh scent of your clean hair is like the scent of spring.
Your hands plant violets in my heart.
You words are like a book with colorful pictures.
A book with a new story, with something new every day.
There there, the moth sings all day long.
My heart will be with you forever.
There there, the moth sings all day long.
My heart will be with you forever.
Everywhere you go, until you come back home,
My eyes will be always on the road, waiting for you.
My eyes will be always on the road, waiting for you.

White Tree
Under a white tree with trembling leavesa sad lover’s blue eyes were lost
He sings a song while shedding tears from his heart
A song that I will remember for the rest of my life
Where can I escape from the weight of that time
From the memories and absence of my darling friend
darling… darling…
Sitting on the floor with his head on his knees
His cheeks are red and teary and his heart is broken
With the flower pattern rugs and the hanging plants
his image has become one with that little room
He forgave me and left, but with him his laughter left
A part of me also left with his belongings
left with him… left with him…
He’s gone quietly and there’s no sign left
except a drawing in an unread book
In my mind though from the moment he left
the image of him smiling has remained as a souvenir
Hey dandelion! If you see two heavenly eyes
will you deliver my greeting to my beautiful friend?
deliver… deliver...
Hey dandelion! If you see two heavenly eyes
will you deliver my greeting to my beautiful friend?
deliver… deliver...

Old Joe
At the town's bank gold was loaded onto a carriageThree robbers chased after it into the prairie
They quickly killed the escorts, it was a real piece of work
But when they were splitting the loot, a small dispute arose
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
Perhaps somebody asks who the fourth one was
It was an old Indian* who hid behind a bush
The Indians are attacking, but old Joe calmly sleeps
He fenced in his hut, he's only worried about lice now
One of them disturbs his beard and that's too much for Joe
He points his Colt into his beard and he's gone in an instant
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
The louse would be overjoyed because it's quite clear
That Joe was overcome by anger and he blew off two for a pair
When the chubby lady at the saloon takes off her garter
The guys have a field day, four lay dead
But with the start of a feast, it's also over in one go
The chairs, tables, bottles turn into sundust
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
Three people shoot, but four fall down dead
That's the cowboy nature that doesn't let us live
Before our final hour arrives let's laugh from the bottom of our hearts
- *. Native American

Out of Ashes
Who should forget everything after it all?To choose a rainstorm in summer?
And so he is persistently squinting with opened eyes
He can't see you a meter away
Love asks for the best
And it is fueled by the best
Help me!
Show me!
[Refrain]
Now save embers out of ashes
Turn it into a better day and
Just keep me
Here, win and stay
Cause I need my angel
When the dream ceases, I see
And I have a happy landing on your ground
Love asks for the best
And it is fueled by the best
Help me!
Show me!
[Refrain]

Who called me?
Who called me, who called me?Who called me, who called me?
Who called me with a love song, who called me?
Who introduced me with the flower that felt like dew. Who introduced me?
Who opened that locked window for me?
Who released me from that hundred-years gaol?
Who released me, who released me?
Who called me, who called me?
Who is as friendly as a rainy day for the garden?
Who is a friend to the lonely lover who cries at night?
Who has the breath of the spring in his chest?
Who has the grace of the stories in his kind words?
Who can be the sunrise?
Who can be a rare diamond for the ring of love?
Who released me, who released me?
Who called me, who called me?
Who called me with a love song, who called me?
Who introduced me with the flower that felt like dew. Who introduced me?
Who opened that locked window for me?
Who released me from that hundred-years gaol?
Who released me, who released me?
Who called me, who called me?
Who is as friendly as a rainy day for the garden?
Who is a friend to the lonely lover who cries at night?
Who has the breath of the spring in his chest?
Who has the grace of the stories in his kind words?
Who can be the sunrise?
Who can be a rare diamond for the ring of love?
Who released me, who released me?
Who called me, who called me?

You and the Music
What would you, if you were like meAt the crossroads of all the roads
Would you name me as your salvation
As I would name you?
What would you say if you knew
That just a moment of your smile
Means life to me, my everything
it's meaning to this meaning
Where ever I go
I'll take you with me
If they ruin everything inside me, kill it
You stay, and the music
Where ever I go
I'll take you with me
And I can stand in front of the wall a hundred times
You stay, and the music, and the music
What would you, if you were like me
At the crossroads of all the roads
Would you name me as your salvation
As I would name you?
What would you say if you knew
That just a moment of your smile
Means life to me, my everything
it's meaning to this meaning
Where ever I go
I'll take you with me
If they ruin everything inside me, kill it
You stay, and the music
Where ever I go
I'll take you with me
And I can stand in front of the wall a hundred times
You stay, and the music, and the music
You stay, and the music, and the music

I'm Looking For Your Love
I'm looking for your loveI have you only in my dream
show me the way. I'd like to find you
just don't keep asking me now why so
I'm looking for your love
nobody knows where you are
even if I have to wait here for months
I'll be looking for you till you know my love
again and again those dreams
I just want you in my arms
you'll come at some time
but the waiting takes a long time, all those days
it's worth the trouble
you are my dream
quite close together
it seems so normal
oh you're the light of a thousand stars
more than the happiness I dream about
I'm looking for your love
nobody knows where you are
even if I have to wait here for months
I'll be looking for you till you know my love
again and again those dreams
I just want you in my arms
you'll come at some time
but the waiting takes a long time, all those days
it's worth the trouble
you are my dream
quite close together
it seems so normal
oh you're the light of a thousand stars
more than the happiness I dream about
I'll find you at some time
wherever you are
love will bind us
the way you've never known love
oh you're the light of a thousand stars
more than the happiness I dream about
it's worth the trouble
you are my dream
quite close together
it seems so normal
oh you're the light of a thousand stars
more than the happiness I dream about

Brazil
BrazilLand of shadow and of love
Soft shore to the heavy sky
Where my heart has stopped over
Where dancing is wild
Where the nights are filled with stars
Where in the enchanted shadow
Every dream offers refuge
To simple hearts
Fierce Brazil
Where in the warm and limpid evening
The shacks' shadows ascend
The gauchos' wild singing
Brazil
Where everything is wonderful
The Southern Cross deep in the skies
Fills your eyes with so many dreams
So that you'd want to stay there forever
But the wind speaks to you of returning
And the mirage one beautiful day
Is no longer just a spot on the pebble beach(1)

Whistle at eight
As once at eightI still pass through your street
And I stand now under window of yours
As once at eight
I still whistle through your street
And now I stop under the window of yours
Although I know you are not there, I wait as in the dream
I think somewhere in the distance you will hear
Those raindrops on the windows, last two teardrops
In eyes forgotten dreams
And know
As once at eight
I still pass through your street
And I stand now under window of yours
Although I know you are not there,
I wait as in the dream
I think somewhere in the distance
you will hear
Those raindrops on the windows,
last two teardrops
In eyes forgotten dreams
And know
As once at eight
I still pass through your street
And I stand now under window of yours
And then I whistle our old sing

You left and in your absence my heart is full of pain!
'رفتی و بی تو دلم پر درده''You left and in your absence my heart is full of pain!'

With you, a stream, a bright stream,

Serenade into the evening breeze
In the distance, a bell tones with each stepof the beautiful and sad day that walks away.
In an hesitant flight, a leaf
whirls and falls down on the path.
I sing my serenade into the evening breeze,
into the wind that will pass over my country
so that my desire escapes toward you,
stronger than sleep and oblivion.
How many summers and winters
had I to spend away from your arms!
Maybe, in your fickle heart, my heart
has become nothing but a stranger!
I sing my serenade into the evening breeze,
into the wind that will dance over your house...
Sometimes, a lurking memory is impervious
to the passing of time and seasons!
But if you don't listen to it,
if your heart beats with a different hope1
may the wind carry you away forever
along with my sorrow and regrets!
I sing my serenade into the evening breeze,
I sing alone and joyless into the wind.
Although its tune is light as a dawn ballad2
its lyrics are made of sorrow and resentment!
Tomorrow, I'll set off for the most beautiful crusade
Tomorrow, I'll set off toward bright days
Tomorrow, I'll go and sing my serenade
softly, in the arms of my love!
Softly, in the arms of my love!
- 1. the inversion is a bit over the top in French, in my opinion
- 2. that would rather be a dawn serenade, but repeating 'serenade' would be awkward
Glad if you liked it, sorry if you didn't.
You can reuse it as you please.
Glad if it's for knowledge or understanding, sorry if it's just for money or fame.

Romana
Who has stolen from the nighta part of the darkest colours,
and then weaved it into your eyes,
and gave them the glow, Romana?
Who has forced the birds
to give up their voice,
to become silent,
and lose their breath, Romana?
Wish I’d never met you,
or wanted you to be mine!
Wish I’d paid with my life
when I laid my eyes on you!
What’s a vulcano’s fire,
in front of the volcano of that ardor,
that you’re burning up with your dance,
and then throwing at us, Romana?
And all the eyes desire
to frantically devour you,
and all the hands would like
to at least touch you, Romana…
Wish I’d never met you,
or wanted you to be mine!
Wish I’d paid with my life
when I fell in love!
One night for you,
I was your song,
a song that gets forgotten
the next day already, Romana!
Because it’s stronger than passion,
your restless love,
that belongs to a world,
I’m not in, Romana…
Wish I’d never met you,
or wanted you to be mine!
Wish I’d paid with my life
when I lost you!

For You
Music is finished for todayThe concert hall is already empty
This pointless night is over
And now I'm alone
All night I waited only for you
All night I sang for you
For you, you sat in the first row
You left just before the end
And you didn't wait for me
Like every night
I continued handing out smiles
As if nothing happened
What more can I give you
I gave you everything
What more can I give you
My laughter was for you
And the sparks in my eyes
All the songs tonight
Music is finished for today
Now comes the last page of the novel
Written by life
Again and again
All loves begin the same way
As beautiful dreams
When you wake up
It's too late, you're down on the ground
And then you're even more alone than before
All loves begin the same way
As beautiful dreams
When you wake up
It's too late, you're down on the ground
And then you're even more alone than before

Natali (Natalie)
The Red Square was quietWhen I got here with Natalie.
When my guide brought me here, Natalie.
There was snow, everywhere snow,
And then the market awakened.
Revived because of my guide, Natalie.
Warriors have passed here,
And poets all over the world,
Karenjine sleeps,
Kutuzova hides smoke,
Lenin's October comes,
While we're drinking tea now.
The Red Square was alive,
Through it many centuries passed.
Revived because of my guide, Natalie. Natalie
During the nights I decided firmly
To say the next day to Natalie:
'I love, I love you'
The next day we walked through the city,
I said only: 'Natalie, where are we now?'
Moscow, with towers ancient,
In the white streets,
The metro that goes,
Moscow, with a river that sings,
With the song that plays,
With a game that fires up blood.
La la la ...
I returned to my hometown
Here are all my friends,
But my guide is no more, Natalie.
Her stories live here,
I hear it still in every dream,
Karenjine sleeps.
My cigarettes smoke,
How it's like a figure.
While I'm drinking tea now.
In the night my city is sleeping,
All of the squares are empty,
They do not have my guide on them, Natalie.
Natalie ...
La la la ...
