I'm A Mess

Versions: #1
I can't enjoy anything, nor do I have any peace.
What kind of gried is the heart in...
I cut out my hopes on your love, at least
Come for some small talk so that my home will feel like home again.
 
Haven't you ever broken a heart too?
Haven't you wondered and ask your conscience?
 
What did I do to you this much?
Aren't I someone's daughter too?
 
It won't happen again
I repent a thousand times.
Is this bad blood,
what kind of anger is this?
 
Now I'm a mess, are you happy?
Knowing that did you sleep peacefully ?
 

Really Late

[Verse 1: Guè Pequeno]
I'm sorry if I get excited, if I breathe in
And I haven't returned, I was out and about (Sorry)
I promised myself never to say it in a text (Never)
But I imprint it in your head like this (Yes)
Sorry if I made you cry (Seh)
If I made the dream shatter (Seh)
These streets are sacred
They're like my veins, my blood
The way in which I love and hate is heavy
You know, I remember when you prayed
For us, because I was almost gunned down
You were holding my hands to calm me
To thank you I cheated on you (Seh)
I, who have always denied
Being cursed blesses me
You know I was really late, never seen hours (G-U-E)
 
[Chorus: Mahmood]
I'm sorry if I was really late
Sung by Christ, but
I return home really tired
Piss-drunk
I didn't want to, want to, I swear
In the mirror I don't see a future, oh
For this shitty, tired face, but
I can no longer strip it bare, oh
 
[Verse 2: Marracash]
You expect to pull away, I expect too much (Eh, eh)
You wait for me on your feet, I wait for you below
I find excuses instead of apologizing
It's more irritating to you than my lateness, eh
And we both had traumas
If we aren't calm, God save us, hey
You know, you're like me
You keep your thoughts to yourself
Lost in the 'ifs', but missing you know what
You try and test me
But I love you in my own way, ah
And my soul is black
Like it came out of a mine, ah
But with a full bag (Marracash)
 
[Chorus: Mahmood]
I'm sorry if I was really late
Sung by Christ, but
I return home really tired
Piss-drunk
I didn't want to, want to, I swear
In the mirror I don't see a future, oh
For this shitty, tired face, but
I can no longer strip it bare
 
[Post-Chorus: Mahmood]
You'll never, never, never
Wake me up-up-up
You'll see me in the sky-y-y
Like Dragonite-ite-ite
I wanted to, wanted to, I swear
In the mirror I don't see a future, oh
For this shitty, tired face, but
I can no longer strip it bare
 
[Bridge: Guè Pequeno & Marracash]
Hey, it's the city that chose me to tell it, eh
You aren't famous, please don't become, seh
This was the only way, I swear
I'll return when it's dark, but
 
[Chorus: Mahmood]
I'm sorry if I was really late
Sung by Christ, but
I return home really tired
Piss-drunk
I didn't want to, want to, I swear
In the mirror I don't see a future, oh
For this shitty, tired face, but
I can no longer strip it bare
 
[Outro: Mahmood]
You'll never, never, never
Wake me up-up-up
You'll see me in the sky-y-y
Like Dragonite-ite-ite
I wanted to, wanted to, I swear
In the mirror I don't see a future, oh
For this shitty, tired face, but
I can no longer strip it bare
 

Shards

Not seeing with our eyes, just jumping into the battle1
what did we want to ask for
to receive and to give what there is
to grab with our hands every passing day
it always passes by so quickly
I am late2
 
Only at night
voices arise
lost questions
searching for an answer
that still does not come
 
Shards
why do memories fade3
a few that i did not hide away, it
enters via the shutters
there isn't anyone to lay my head upon
even if i did not break, i paid the price
go find someone to be mad at
 
There isn't any air in the heavens, how is it possible to breath
everything is stuck in place
but i have not stopped to dream
so i jumped into the water because i must swim
in water the tears are not seen
in water the sands that remember will sink
 
Only at night
voices arise
lost questions
searching for an answer
soon it comes
 
Shards
why do memories fade
a few that i did not hide away, it enters via the shutters
there isn't anyone to lay my head upon
even if i did not break, i paid the price
go find someone to be mad at
 
lost questions searching for an answer
and now it comes
 
Shards
why do memories fade
a few that i did not hide away, it enters via the shutters
there isn't anyone to lay my head upon
even if i did not break, i paid the price
go find someone to be mad at

This evening is drawing to an end

Versions: #1
It's been nice to be here once again
I've neither seen nor spoken to you
But it went by too quickly
the end has already begun
This evening was wonderful
the stars shone brightly, more so than ever
In the sky, in the sky over you
 
Refrain:
It's come to an end again
This evening is drawing to a close
The darkness will vanish for the morningarrives
It's come to an end again
This evening is drawing to a close
But let's sing together before we're heading home
 
Conviviality knows no bounds
But the bartender does, he wants to call it a day
There's a fair maid next to me
Wanting to leave with me
This evening was wonderful
the stars shone brightly, more so than ever
In the sky, in the sky over you.
 

The world is dawning

The darkness of the room
Will join you
Get dressed, get dressed, get dressed
And this night that you kept, is yours
Get dressed, get dressed
 
The world is dawning
The world is dawning
 
With the kisses that I planted
Deep inside you
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
And the things you won tonight, are yours
Hurry up, hurry up
 
The world is dawning
The world is dawning
 

God Took all the Photos

I saw deep dreams in my adventure, when I opened around all hearts were stuck
While reciprocal punches were slowly hitting the grounds like the rose leaves deep inside
My tongue was unresponsive to the broken-out storms, wiping my tears away from my eyes which looked after a faced away wall,
The ran out stamina in these worn-out feet asked
When is fire of yours going to die down? When is your sun going to die down?
It had threw up to me as if it was saying relentless efforts of mine are imprecious as sand grains on a beach, had remained silent as well
My enthusiasm faded away as if I haven't got another goal to be achieved
My soul is desperate in my heart, it wants to disengage from my body
C'mon my silent heart, talk! It's the last unresponsive offering to you
The one that I can't reach in my dreams, that everytime I fall down
The name they entitled to my painful regret
 
God took the photo, put all of them in front of you
Remember! What was the motive behind all mistakes?
Forgive! Did all love turned into ashes?
Explain! I had sown dreams before I disappered, collect them up
He put ruined walls in front of the hatred, and buried down love, all compliments made him more mischievous
My hundred years turned into a desert, answer! I took lives, he washed his life with blood,
O Lord, I had prayed before, I disappeared
Reveal your life!
 
How many flowers has been watered in these gardens? How many of them have faded away?
All lives took your name, but there's thousands of thorns in every single life!
These eyes realised the dark lines of the reality
My ear have heard and then reached the songs of life which fell into a coma
He's fixed on the road to RAP, with his bag, Sagopa K
All beams are burning in the crowd, my brain is in the middle of the fire
It has been decorated with ashes and tricked by roses
All my dreams, and you're in the audience
They are blindfolded in the scene of forced displays
And, the day was a priestess, my face is a torn away rose
My face, it's a chant, always blue, grasp of it is all grapes
The only resolution was sorrow, my eye kept watching
I don't have any guests, so I do walk alone, might pee on my way
I will make my progress, when the humankind that provoke quarrels
relate all sinister to the wit, meanwhile, we chose the orphan over the benign
We filled it into my fate
We kicked the miserable, and went to poaching
As if we were both hunters and the one hunted down amongst all preys
Don't be humble, probably lots of intrigue lies behind your motive
Convulsed songs in coma, and all destinies are about to commit suicide as
They are from the generation of the domestic desires
They all kept running out, lines of the poet are frozen
 
God took the photo, put all of them in front of you
Remember! What was the motive behind all mistakes?
Forgive! Did all love turned into ashes?
Explain! I had sown dreams before I disappered, collect them up
He put ruined walls in front of the hatred, and buried down love, all compliments made him more mischievous
My hundred years turned into a desert, answer! I took lives, he washed his life with blood,
O Lord, I had prayed before, I disappeared
Reveal your life!
 

The Hymn Of The Fallen Legionaries

The Moon is cying among the tree branches,
The nights are desolate,
Cuz you are forever gone
And wont come back no more.
 
On every road we have walked
We searched for you,
You've been forgotten by all,
Even your own.
 
Only the wind is sobbing,
In your sweet song,
All over the flowers carresing
Your sorrowful tomb.
 
Just like a tear of blood,
A star has fallen,
A path of fire and victory
For your Guard. 1
 
The breez is passing above the water,
Long years are going by,
We are mourning you brother,
But you're in your eternal rest.

The Wind Sings Now in Those Places

The wind sings now
In those places, our old song, our song
Cease, don't tell anymore
Don't remind our love in the bygone, ah, our love
Cease, don't tell anymore
Don't remind our love in the bygone, ah, our love
It was a winter day, it* has begun
This plaintive romance of our lifetime, of our lifetime
Cease, don't tell anymore
Don't remind our love in the bygone, ah, our love
Cease, don't tell anymore
Don't remind our love in the bygone, ah, our love
 

Don't do it that way

I am still embarrassed
i am still trying
hidding myself in the room
how many hours opposite the mirror
 
Waving arms
looking at me sideways
i have something inside that tells me
'you should have not gotten up'
 
And i am not able, not able to stand
i have to dance,
even if i tried to stop
it is my legs that want
have a mind of their own
i don't know, don't know how to explain
three seconds into the song
i am already flying in the air
i am already flying in the air
i am already flying
 
Because (they) don't do it that way
don't do it that way
i am doing it that way
i am doing it
 
What will they say, that they will say
it does not matter much
i am not able anyway
to stop dancing now
 
no, now i do not stop
man,1this song is catchy
the pants are from the Nazareth market
the moves are from Upper Nazareth
 
And i am not able, not able to stand
i have to dance,
even if i tried to stop
it is my legs that want
have a mind of their own
i don't know, don't know how to explain
three seconds into the song
i am already flying in the air
i am already flying in the air
i am already flying
 
Because (they) don't do it that way
don't do it that way
i am doing it that way
i am doing it
 
ok, ok, ok, ok
don't do it this way
what, don't do it that way
so how do you do it?
 
I am Aya the 'Cool'
not that way
i am the very very very very best
Aya, really not that way
i will blow you away like a hurricane
i doubt it
because my flow is dangerous
 
I came from Poland to bring the spice
bring out the verses and understand contract law
all the rest is just on the side
i don't see here anyone
this is my solo party
i am dancing alone

Simply today

Simply today,
because of you,
smiles have no place to stay
they crowded themselves on my face
I'm happy
like crazy
I, honestly, need only time
to put all that I feel in fact...
 
Chorus:
 
And today, if you'd ask me
I'd tell you that, yeah,
I'd give you my heart
And today, if you'd ask me
I'd tell you that, yeah,
I've chosen your world
 
Nothing to say,
words are not enough
I've got hundreds of thoughts and stories
but they have no meaning when I see you here
in my right,
my wonder
You stopped there one day
to hide from everything you see and know...
 
Chorus...
 
Simply today,
because of you,
smiles have no place to stay
they crowded themselves on my face
 

What shall I do?

Simón The Gravedigger

Yesterday afternoon they buried
the daughter of Juan Simón,
Simón was the town's
only gravedigger,
only gravedigger.
 
When she breathed her
last breath in his arms,
he buried his own daughter,
to the cemetery he took her
to the cemetery he took her.
 
He dug the grave himself
murmuring a prayer,
saying goodbye forever
to the daughter of Juan Simón,
to the daughter of Juan Simón.
 
And crying like a child
he left the cemetery,
with a stick in hand
and a mattock on his shoulder,
and a mattock on his shoulder.
 
The people asked him:
'where are you coming from, Simón?'
and as he wiped away his tears,
in a hushed voice he answered,
in a hushed voice he answered:
 
'I am a gravedigger and I've come
from burying my heart,
I am a gravedigger and I've come
from burying my heart,
from burying my heart'.
 

You're Just a Whore

I get up in the morning, having a cup of coffee
Smoking my cigarette with Him
Smoking, thinking what I should do today
Smoking, asking just why...
Did you leave me?
 
You've left me all alone in that cold, dark room
And I ask, is there something wrong with me?
Asking you, and you don't reply
 
Only two days later, I saw you on the street
I saw you with another man
And everything clicked, I realized
That because of him...
You've left me
 
You've left me all alone in that cold, dark room
And I ask, is there something wrong with me?
Asking you, and you don't reply
You're just a whore
 
Now that you've realized your mistake
You want to go home
But I won't accept you
And you know why
Because it's him...
You've left me for
 
You've left me all alone in that cold, dark room
And I ask, is there something wrong with me?
Asking, and you...
You've left me
 
You've left me all alone in that cold, dark room
And I ask, is there something wrong with me?
Asking you, and you don't reply
You're just a whore
 

Egy új nap

Kezdődik a reggel
Az nap újra kezdődik a semmiből
De most egy teljesen másik fény ragyog
Felébred a világ,
Ahogy a napfény felébreszt minket,
Kiemelvén téged az ágyadból
 
Látod, ahogy minden másképp néz ki,
Ha más szemekkel nézel?
 
Egy új nap kezdődik
Holnap más lesz,
Ha most széttárod a szárnyaid
Egy új nap kezdődik
Semmi sem lesz már ugyanaz,
Mert egy új kor közeledik
 
Mosolyogva veszed észre
A dolgokat, amiket korábban nem láttál
Amikről eddig semmit sem tudtál
Ez az a szél, amit érzel
Az eső mindent elmosott
Ez egy benyomás, amiről senki sem már
 
Látod, ahogy minden másképp néz ki,
Ha más szemekkel nézel?
 
Egy új nap kezdődik
Holnap más lesz,
Ha most széttárod a szárnyaid
Egy új nap kezdődik
Semmi sem lesz már ugyanaz,
Mert egy új kor közeledik
 
Érzel valami idegent,
Mert a dolgok körülötted már elmúltak,
Minden másképp néz ki
Minden másképp érződik
 
Mikor a tükör előtt állsz,
És valaki más néz vissza rád,
Ismeretlennek tűnik számodra
Az, aki vagy
 
Egy új nap kezdődik
Holnap más lesz,
Ha most széttárod a szárnyaid
Egy új nap kezdődik
Semmi sem lesz már ugyanaz,
Mert egy új kor közeledik
 
Holnap más lesz,
Ha most széttárod a szárnyaid
Egy új nap kezdődik
Semmi sem lesz már ugyanaz,
Mert egy új kor közeledik
 

Poems Written For Piraye - 13 Nov 1945

It can't be even imagined, they say, the miserables of Istanbul,
Poors of her, they say, poverty destroyed
tuberculosis, they say, they all are knee-deep
Poor girls, they say
At the fireplaces, in the lodges of cinema
 
The black news is coming from my city afar
Honourable, industrious, the city of poors
My dead serious Istanbul
My beloved, the place which is yours
Wherever I'll be exiled, no matter in which jail I do my time
On my back, it's in my heart, which I carry them in my bag
That's like a grief of losing a child
The city which I carry in my eyes just as I dream of you
 

When it's the time

#1
When it's the time, will you come to see me,
I'll inform when it is that day
When it's the time, you'll get to know that instantly
I can't be without telling, I can't.
 
#2
When it's the time, you will see the sun rise
And you hear me calling your name.
When it's the time, we'll play again,
I'll see you again.
You'll come when it is the time?
So again you'll get everything,
I'll make our play true.

Leila Qasim

From Leila's death and her execution
we called for liberty and freedom
we wanted the world appreciate
the greatness and eminence of Kurdish women
 
You are the nation of Leila Qasim
Do no thing you are forsaken and friendless
Which nation on this world
has given birth to a Leila like your Leila
 
Which nation on this world
has women who stand in the face of death
and never fear execution and capital punishment
How many women do you know would die standing like Leila
 
We burned and scorched along with our land
we wept and bled
but we held our heads high and were proud
we were a nation honored to have Leila as our daughter
 
Kurdistan salute you Leila
You are the noble bride of our history
You are gracious flower among our martyrs
You are the royal crown of our nation
 

Season of separation

Versions: #1
Love is not enough, love is one day old
How many seasons we both laughed and cried with you
Look, the road is over and we've seen love is gone
We got wet in the rain then we were so in love
Season of separation
 
Hey my crazy heart, come on come on
It's time to go from here
Goodbye love
Stop kiss me for the last time come on
But please don't look like that or I'll cry
Don't look like this
Don't look, don't look like that, or I'll cry

Amikor megöregszünk

Tudom, hogy sose fogom elfelejteni
Azt a napot, amikor először találkoztunk
Hosszú utat tettünk meg azóta
És újra megismétlünk mindent
 
Az első mosolyodtól
Tudtam, hogy mérföldeket sétálnék
Látod, ezt igazából tudod is
Te sose akartál elereszteni
 
Ezek azok az okok
Szeretném ha tudnád, oh oh oh
Te teszed olyan otthonossá ezt a helyet
 
Ezek azok az okok
Amiért nem tudlak elereszteni, oh oh oh
Énekeljük el a dalt, amit mi írtunk
Amikor megöregszünk, ah ah oh
 
Amikor megöregszünk, ah ah oh
 
Nem számít, hogy milyen bajok jönnek az utunkon
Úgy érzem itt maradok
Te voltál az igazi a kezdetektől
És a szívedbe engedtél
 
Ennyi idő után
Utálom a viszlát hangját
És ha te hagyod el ezt a szót
 
Ezek azok az okok
Szeretném ha tudnád, oh oh oh
Te teszed olyan otthonossá ezt a helyet
 
Ezek azok az okok
Amiért nem tudlak elereszteni, oh oh oh
Énekeljük el a dalt, amit mi írtunk
Amikor megöregszünk, ah ah oh
 
Amikor megöregszünk, ah ah oh
 
Az első igazi csókunktól
Tudtam, hogy ez így fog végződni
Nem félek az öregedéstől
Amennyiben a kezedet fogom
 

Every Season I am Summer

You are in somewhere in my eyes, it will be difficult to fall down
Shall we name this leaving now?
Can you tell me where you are, is there any return there for you?
Please tell me will these fights be ended one day?
 
I have become another me with you
Who could ever say that this capricious body will fall in love one day?
Is there anything like that burns on without putting off
 
It never stops, it never fits
I need your eyes
Whatever I do winter won't come to me
I am Summer in every season
I will never lose my enjoy after you
My affectation is only to you
My affectation is only to you
 
It never stops, it never fits
I need your eyes
Whatever I do winter won't come to me
I am Summer in every season
I will never lose my enjoy after you
My affectation is only to you
My affectation is only to you
 
(My affectation is only to you)
 
I have become another me with you
Who could ever say that this capricious body will fall in love one day?
Is there anything like that burns on without putting off
 
It never stops, it never fits
I need your eyes
Whatever I do winter won't come to me
I am Summer in every season
I will never lose my enjoy after you
My affectation is only to you
My affectation is only to you
 
It never stops, it never fits
I need your eyes
Whatever I do winter won't come to me
I am Summer in every season
I will never lose my enjoy after you
My affectation is only to you
My affectation is only to you
 
(My affectation is only to you)
 
I am Summer in every season
 

My breath

I can’t go, I do not go besides
I can’t love anybody as you breath
My heart gets tired,gets sad
But again I do not abondon you
Oh I wish you understood me,
I wish you were alive in my heart
 
Difficult, my wounds are not cured
My medicine hides itself in your skin
Touch me,
That time I lose my breath
My death hides itself in your skin
 

Oh Nero Nero

Oh Nero Nero, where do you go?
Oh, betrayer of my life,
you ruined my life and our love will never come back
you ruined my life and our love will never come back
 
You ruined my brothers,
you ruined my sisters,
they had curly hair, they were handsome and our love will never come back
they had curly hair, they were handsome and our love will never come back
 
I was sitting on a little bridge,
I was near my home.
I got a coffee at Lucia's place, I found a squad and got arrested
I got a coffee at Lucia's place, I found a squad and got arrested
 
The one who arrested me was a true friend,
his name was Nero [Black]
I thought he was sincere, but that coward ruined me.
I thought he was sincere, but that coward ruined me.
 
He ruined me to an end,
to take my darling,
but if I ever get out of this cell, I will have my revenge
but if I ever get out of this cell, I will have my revenge.
 
My revenge was right and sacred,
three stabs from my knife,
I sent him to the hospital and rest assured, he won't get out
I sent him to the hospital and rest assured, he won't get out.
 
There was a trial in the courthouse,
my mama was there,
and the judge, that rat, sentenced me to twenty-one years
and the judge, that rat, sentenced me to twenty-one years.
 
But I can't afford to lose twenty-one years,
my youth is hardly anything
but I have my dear old mama
she will die and I will never see her again,
but I have my dear old mama
she will die and I will never see her again.
 

A Bloody Fairytale

It happened in a country of peasants
in the mountainous Balkans
a troop of schoolchildren
died a martyr's death
in one day.
 
In the same year
they all were born,
their school days went on the same way
to the same celebrations
they were taken together
vaccinated against the same ilnesses
and all died on the same day.
 
It happened in a country of peasants
in the mountainous Balkans
a troop of schoolchildren
died a martyr's death
in one day.
 
And fifty five minutes
before the moment of death
the little troop
was sitting in the school benches.
 
And the same difficult exercises
they were solving: how much can
a traveler going on foot...
and so on.
 
Their minds were full
of the same numbers,
and exercise books in school bags
contained a meaningless abundance
of A's and D's.
 
A handfull of the same dreams
and the same secrets
both of patriotism and of love
they were clenching at the bottoms of their pockets.
 
And it seemed to everyone
that they will for a long time
that they will for a very long time
be running beneath the blue firmament
until they finish
all the exercises in the world.
 
It happened in a country of peasants
in the mountainous Balkans
a troop of schoolchildren
died a heroic death
in one day.
 
Whole rows of boys
took each other's hands
and from their last class at school
went peacefully to the firing squad
as if death was nothing.
 
Whole rows of friends
ascended at the same time
to their eternal resting place.
 

Egyszerű ember

Mama azt mondta nekem amikor fiatal voltam
'Gyere, ülj le mellém egyetlen fiam
és figyelj jól arra amit mondok.
Ha megteszed,
az segíteni fog neked egy szép napon
Ne siess... ne élj túl gyorsan.
A gondok jönni fognak, de el is fognak múlni.
Találsz majd egy nőt, és megtalálod a szerelmet,
és ne feledd fiam,
ott fent van valaki.
 
És légy egyszerű ember.
Legyél valami amit szeretsz, és amihez értesz.
Legyél egyszerű ember.
Ugye megteszed értem fiam,
ha meg tudod?
 
Felejtsd el a vágyad a gazdagság iránt
Minden, amire szükséged van, a lelkedben van,
És meg tudod csinálni, ha megpróbálod.
Minden amit szeretnék neked fiam,
hogy elégedett legyél.
 
Ne aggódj fiú.
Meg fogod találni önmagad.
Kövesd a szíved,
és semmi mást.
Meg tudod csinálni,
ha megpróbálod.
Minden amit szeretnék neked fiam,
hogy elégedett legyél.'
 

My calamity

Let's finally walk out of this door
Light went out, winter came, my heart
Before people asked why
Let's leave this street
My heart
My calamity
 
Let's slowly get used to the night
Don't rely on tomorrow, on next year
Now and then
Don't turn to look out of the window
My heart
My calamity
 
Let's get out of here to the avenue
We're wounded, don't tell anyone
This flame left from my love in my chest
Let's become ashes, burning
My heart
My calamity
 
Let's slowly get used to the night
Don't rely on tomorrow, on next year
Now and then
Don't turn to look out of the window
My heart
My calamity
 

Hear my lullaby

Sleep, my sweet Kovu,
Dream, my little love!
One day you'll become big and strong
And be a king.
 
They pursue, they condemn,
And finally you are banished.
If I only think of Simba's name,
I get a little tense.
 
But I dream of pretty things,
Then I'm not stressed anymore.
In doing so, I plan my revenge,
After that, I sleep soundly.
 
I hear Simba's death cry.
I kill the daughter at the same time.
The wife: she wails, she cries, she implores.
Hear my lullaby!
 
If only I could forgive them,
I would have no distress today
But that's life,
And I would prefer them dead
 
And a lion, strong and courageous
Kills Simba for you.
The carnage will be very bloody.
Yes, that would be something for me!
 
Whether fierce battle, battlecries,
Whether groaning, moaning, torturing:
Yes, for that have I appetite.
Hear my lullaby!
 
Scar is dead, but Zira is still here.
She will not leave you alone,
Before you learn to kill the enemy
And love to be mean.
 
Sleep now, you termite,
I mean: my little prince!
One day you'll become big and strong
And be a king.
 
At Kovu's powerful roar
Will all voices be silent.
We want revenge,
It is close.
 
Do you not hear the masses?
Kovu hip hurray!
 
How they hate Simba!
So that my Kovu wins
And royal blood will flows!
Hear my lullaby!
 

Sleep little Kovu

- Hush! my little one
Because today really
You look exhausted
Sleep little Kovu
You are dreaming
Once you grow up
You'll become a king
 
- Good night
- Good night, my little prince
We will be working harder tomorrow
I always lived as an exile
Defenceless, afraid
When I think about the things once happened
I get really anger
 
But when I dream such beautiful dreams,
I suddenly feel rejoiced
The little kitten I have in me
Starts to simmer down
 
Ah, Simba's last breath
The scream of his little daughter
The mournings of his herd
Now, this is my dream
 
Even if the past is dark
I would like to forgive it
But how unfortunate is that
I want to kill them
 
Simba, you better hide from me
Or else I will find you
The ending might be bloody
But who cares
 
Against the force are
The waillings of the miserable enemy
A symphony of death
Now, this is my dream
 
Scar is gone but I'm here
For my little son
He's going to grow up to kill
At the peak of his urge for revenge
 
Sleep you little insect
Sweet little thing
Once you grow up
You'll become a king
 
May the war drums be banging
The passion we have for batteling
The joy of revenge...
I hear everyone
 
The further of the journey (Kovu is the best!)
And may the flag of delighted victory will be surging
Up in the dark red skies
Now, this is my drean
 

My Melody

Sleep, my little Kovu
Sleep as comfortably as you can
When you grow up, you'll be
The king of our land
 
I was made an outcast with my brood
And then we ended up here
When I think of that villain
I might get pretty sullen
 
But I have a soothing dream
I won't panic
There, my inner kitty may
Relax with sweet music1
 
Hearing Simba's final cry
His daughter's struggle to get free
His tiny lionesses' whining
That's my melody
 
Am tough and unfair?
I've often asked myself that
But being merciful is hard
Killing is so easy
 
We'll make Kovu strong and brave
It's time for Simba to be knocked down
Our fight will surely be bloody
But all is fair in war and love
 
Hear the roar of our victory song
The shrill sound of the hungry voices
The symphony of death is starting now
That's my melody
 
Scar's gone, but Zira will watch over
That sweet, little rascal
I will teach him to kill
I'll give him a taste for blood
 
Sleep, you tiny ant
I mean, little, big man
When you grow up, you'll be
The king of our land
 
A roar tearing the peace of night apart
A silhouette of Kovu's claw
We'll get our revenge
At last
 
I can hear them cry
'We like Kovu'
 
Soon, we'll be even
And then it'll be over
With Simba's tyranny
That's my melody

The last dance

Breath, I breathe in the emptiness
Emptiness, Oh I am in the middle of it
Hoping of, I hope that there will be a reversal
That the light will shine on you
 
Feeling, I feel so helpless
Dreaming, that your destiny choses someone else
Knowing that, I should know better
That hope will make me happier, when I dance
 
Let me dance
On the rythem of hope
Because when we dance
It will be more empty in my head
I see heaven
So black as the hell
What would you think?
When I tell you that
 
Questions, I rather not ask them
Giving, The answer gives us grief
Afraid for, Afraid for what wil come
Let the hope free me, when I dance
 
So, Let me dance
On the rythem of hope
Because when we dance
It will be more empty in my head
I see heaven
So black as the hell
What would you think
When I tell you that?
 
The tears betray us both during the last dance
Oh, Give us a last chance
By the reflection of the moonlight
You take my hand
Dance this last dance with me
 
Let me dance
On the rythem of hope
Because when we dance
It will be more empty in my head
I see heaven
So black as the hell
What would you think
(What would you think?)
When I tell you that?
 
Let me dance
On the rythem of hope
Because when we dance
It will be more empty in my head
I see heaven
So black as the hell
What would you think
When I tell you that?
 

The bloke of Votanikos

A bloke at Votanikos
He tells what he wants without fear
In places of entertainment and bars
And in Perdikiaris' place
 
He's smoking, getting high
With his girl in the opium den
And Angelo
Flames his shisha
 
He's a bloke, he's a devotee
At Votanikos he's the boldest
And the other blokes are afraid of him
But he doesn't give a damn
 
He's smoking, getting high
Getting stoned, always for free
Because he's retired
From the Madrasa
 

Lives eternally

A light in the night, see how it shines
In the silence
Up to the mountains a holy wish is heard
A wish
 
This figure lives eternally
Standing by your side
Whatever happens
Sees everything on this Earth
In your soul, lives eternally
 
Lives eternally...
 
This figure lives eternally
Standing by your side
Whatever happens
Sees everything on this Earth
In your soul, lives eternally
 

Today, tomorrow, or now?

Versions: #2
Today, tomorrow, or now?
Let's clear things up sooner rather than later
The time of our separation has come,
it might be better for both of us this way
Let's clear things up sooner rather than later
 
Today, tomorrow, or now?
And if we wait, what are we gonna get out of it?
Since nagging broke like a storm,
down that path we will both become miserable
And if we wait, what are we gonna get out of it?
 
Today, tomorrow, or now?
Since it's impossible for us to live together
and since we're only going downhill,
it's better to break up now
Since it's impossible for us to live together
