The Grenade

Hey you
What are you looking at?
You've never seen a woman fighting
Follow me
In the pale city
And I will show you
As I bite, as I bark
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
 
Hey you
But what do you think?
I am only an animal
Disguised as Madonna
Hey you
I could hurt you
I could hurt you, yes
In the night that shivers
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
 
Hey you
What do you imagine?
I am also voracious
As alive as you
Do you know
That there under my chest
An anger sleeps
That you do not suspect?
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
Be careful, under my breast, the grenade
Under my breast there look
Under my breast the grenade
Be careful
 

By the light of a woman

I knew a woman
one misty day in my life.
A woman, a music
beautiful as languor1 itself.
 
And her heart spoke to me
better than whispered words would.
I felt good, as if
I had already loved her
a whole life.
 
By the light of a woman
I rested my life.
I dreamt of her so many times.
By the light of a woman
I see my nights shining
in the coat of her arms2
 
Just like a
priceless gift3,
between chance and oblivion,
in the land of her skin
my insomnia are easier to live through.
I live for her, and she for me4.
 
For this woman, I even
hurt and betrayed
friends, other women lost
around the corner of my life.
Never mind!
 
And her eyes are lakes
whence I draw the truth,
the love on her face
is a guiding sun.
 
With her scent in the night
to get on her track5
and her smile in the morning
to lighten my day,
I come alive again.
 
By the light of a woman
I rested my life.
I dreamt of her so many times.
By the light of a woman
I see my nights shining
into infinity, her and me6
 
Just like a
priceless gift,
a modern legend,
in the land of her skin
my insomnia are easier to live through.
I came to terms with myself7
 
For this woman's sake
I rid myself of my desires.
In the blue sky of her soul
I found my harmony.
 
By the light of a woman
I laid down my life.
By the light of a woman
I found today
an endless path
where the sun grows and,
with my hand in hers
I think I get a hold on my life.
 

• 1. 'mélancolie' can carry a somewhat positive undertone, contrary to 'melancholy', but I can't find a really good match for it
• 2. The pun on 'coat of arms' is accidental but I couldn't resist the temptation! It's really about a piece of clothing here
• 3. lit. 'a gift that would be priceless'
• 4. The English might be broken there. Please let me know if I shall put back the 'lives'
• 5. lit. 'In the night, [there is] her scent that helps me find her back, [and there is] her smile in the morning to lighten my day. I come alive again'. This is poetic register, a direct translation would defeat the purpose of the original. Instead, I rephrased the stanza to try to convey the general mood
• 6. can also be read as 'her and me [stretching] to infinity'
• 7. lit. 'I made peace with me' (the use of 'moi' is a bit peculiar, as if he was facing a distinct part of him), but the meaning is more like 'I accepted myself'

This translation does not claim to be of any particular value.
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.

The Kite

For instance yesterday while I was walking
Suddenly I saw an angel
How come that angel didn't sense me?
 
I was like a child who forgot what to buy
When going to the store
How come I couldn't forget you growing up?
 
When I was holding my phone in my hand
I was like a child who was looking for it
How come my thoughts can't fill in my lines?
 
When I had euphoria,
I was like a child who was looking for you
How come my wounds don't heal?
 
Chorus
But I'm not the kind of people who apperciate the lost when they lose them
I'm the kind of people who lose because they apperciate
I waited for you all day and night, followed you secrectly
I made sure that you're the apperciated one who doesn't deserve to be
 
Verse (BadClause)
December 9th 2014, the time is 23:10, recieved a message - 'we should break up.'
I couldn't pull myself together since then
I wrote about you a lot, we must remain in poems
 
A colourful kite, a yellow leaf, bookmarks
I know by heart every line of my childhood
The years require happy momments to smile
Probably, the years even don't know who's my fate
 
I fool myself with you, I believe in me with you,
Considering you as a scarecrow I hugged you with stares
I re-come back alone the road I started to walk with you
Everything was alright, I couldn't escape from our bad days
 
The woman who I gave life in the poems is no longer here
I wanted to go to her, that's why I skipped the others
Love makes you old, it only makes you older
Even if she doesn't remember of me, now she's in my bad books.
 
..I came, we made it and you forgave
The window has been silent for months, the rain sleeps in its eyes
The autumn is at odds with me, I didn't write about the rain
You became the period of 'without you's, you didn't talk
 

Cécile, my daughter

Versions: #2
She wanted a child
I didn't want any.
But however it was easy for her
With her aguments
To find a dad for you,
Cécile, my daughter.
 
When her belly was round,
Laughing loud,
She said to me 'Come on, be happy,
It will be a boy'!
And here you are,
Cécile, my daughter.
 
And here you are
And here I am.
I am thirty,
You are 6 months.
Face to face,
Eye to eye,
Which of both is the most surprised ?
 
A long time before you were born,
I had known many girls
Playing with my heart,
From the brunette won
To the blond I'd lost,
Cécile, my daughter.
 
And I know that soon
You too, will have
Some ideas and some romances,
Sweet words on your tops
And hands on your pants,
Cécile, my daughter.
 
I will wait for you all night long
I will hear you enter noiselessly.
But in the morning, I will be perturbated
In front of your eyes more clear than ever.
 
I wish someone will touche you forever,
Just like I'm doing it now,
Just like my breath on your lashes,
My kiss on your lips,
In you children sleep,
Cécile, my daughter.
 

The guitar classes of Miss Cunegunda Lopez of Garcia

At the guitar classes of Miss Cunegunda Lopez
of Garcia in front of the Cinemascope
I gave my first steps with my hands
on the guitar with my brothers
Our fathers were sending us with the stave notebook
And while the class was ongoing they were doing shopping
 
I learned a lot of pieces that I don't know well where did they came from
Though if miss Cunegunda
were teaching us them it's for something
The odd thing that happens is that nowdays
when I go to the guitar concers I don't listen to those pieces
but in our end of the year auditions they were playing these
 
My guitar teacher was also teaching me beautiful songs
I still keep recordings
of when my aunts gave me a kiss
and told me boy show your progress
and as they were songs that they also had learned
when they were young then they helped me and sang along
 
The memory I keep of my happy days of student
is very pleasant and if I kept going forward
all that was thanks to that professor
who my song remembers tonight
And despite she went to heaven like a pigeon
I keep her signature in the lower part of my diploma.

8th Floor

Versions: #3
When you walked out the door I thought about throwing myself out of the 8th-floor window
It's where Ms. Maria lives and because she adores me I know that I can always come over.
I would jump just in time for you to get to the ground floor, where you'll look at your hair in the mirror and talk to the doorman, Jose
And you would see me fall on you just like in all the cartoons
 
And then, it's just the two of us on the cold floor
Spooning right on the curb
Outlined with chalk on the pavement
Just imagine how happy this scene would be!
 
When the paramedics arrived and the firemen removed our bodies from Leblon
We would go to the morgue and have a staring contest while resting cozily
 
Each of us is just like a popsicle
With the same kind of toe tag.
During the autopsy, it would be clear
How I only died for you
 
When you walked out the door I thought about throwing myself out of the 8th-floor window.
Instead of that I just ate an entire mulberry pie for dinner
 

PRIMALove

I dreamed of a far, far, far-off future
As I dozed off.
I walked along through unknown scenery,
Thinking about my real tomorrow.
 
I don't know what my schedule will look like a year from now,
But there's one thing I know for certain...
 
Even if hundreds of years pass
We'll experience love,
Get hurt,
Then face forward...
Time and time again.
With buildings reaching into the sky
And streets filled with dancing light,
Please don't let
This precious feeling
Ever change:
PRIMALove
 
All the meaningless days we spent
Were linked to the future all along.
If this place is a future that someone dreamed of,
We've got to keep on smiling.
 
Even if the words change before we can get them out,
We'll be dreaming of tomorrow just the same.
 
Since hundreds of years ago,
We've experienced love,
Cried,
And felt down...
Time and time again.
With the sky we look up to now
And yesterday's signs of rain,
This
Precious feeling
Is connecting us:
PRIMALove
 
As the moments build upon one another,
We become an unknown future.
No matter the time,
I'm sure someone will be there,
Falling in love with someone else.
 
Even if hundreds of years pass
We'll experience love,
Get hurt,
Then face forward...
Time and time again.
With buildings reaching into the sky
And streets filled with dancing light,
Please don't let
This precious feeling
Ever change:
PRIMALove...
 

If you dream clearly

If you dream clearly, you'll see it
If you think it hard, it will happen
Everything is in you
Your destiny
 
I never upload a good love song
This will be a better world with your voice
Everything is in you
Your destiny
 
Come see how it will be
Lights that will never go out
It's time to live the dream
 
Come we carry on
Lights like the colored sky
Tell me if you're feeling it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it won’t happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it does not happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
There is nothing that doesn’t heal a song
This world needs your voice
Everything is in you
Your destiny
 
From the day you see with another sun
There is no force that stops the heart
Everything is in you
Your destiny
 
Come see how it will be
Lights that will never go out
It's time to live the dream
 
Come we carry on
Lights like the colored sky
Tell me if you're feeling it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it does not happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it doesn’t happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it doesn’t happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
When you feel fear and believe that it does not happen
Be calm, breathe, don’t stop
Just feel it, you've got it
 
Just feel it
you've got it
 

Minut

ponekad mi treba zavetrina
ponekad mi treba vreme neaktivnosti
 
ponekad mi treba minut samo za mene
treba mi minut samo da budem
treba mi minut samo da disem
 
ponekad mi treba minut na moj nacin
treba mi minut u mojoj zoni
gde mogu da kazem bas ono sto mislim
mhm, aha
treba mi minut
 

Air carnation

Like the air carnation,
that's how she was,
just like the flower.
pinned in my heart.
Oh, how much I cried
because she left me!
Like the air carnation,
just like the flower,
that's how she was.
 
In this region,
just like an ombu 1.
alone and without flower,
that's how I was.
And captured by grief,
through the years I lived,
just like an ombú
in this region.
 
And all my branches
were getting dry,
when one afternoon
she looked for my shade.
A bird sung
in my branches,
and the tree, without flowers,
got its bloom.
 
But a happy traveller,
-damn traveller-
crossed the country side,
and, in his arms, she left me,
and I remained
flowerless, once again.
The one that cross was the wind,
the wind of the Pampa 2.
that took her away.
 
(It repeats from the beginning)
 
Like the air carnation,
that's how she was,
just like the flower.
 

The girl with light-coloured hairs

From the window of the train,
i saw a girl, one night
who had so light-coloured hairs,
That i thought i was dreaming,
 
it was nearly Sunset,
and i travelled for a very very long time,
i had asches 1 in my mouth
and i felt tired
 
but the hairs of this girl
so blond, so light, so clear,
gave me this freshness,
that only children can have
 
she wasn't waiting anything, nor anybody
i just walked out the train,
she gave me a tour of her city
and walked through wheat fields
 
near a wild and fast river
we slept together
and i think i loved her
on the very first night
 
If sometime you take the train,
keep an eye on deserted platforms
somewhere, there is this girl,
she looks like summer
 
she won't wait for anything, nor anybody,
but don't talk to her about me,
because i left her one morning
i still Wonder why,
 
she was a light-coloured hair girl
i want to preserve her reflection,
i woud like to delay winter,
but time will fade her face
 
i woud like to delay winter,
but you know, time will fade her face

Ne mislim na tebe

strofa 1
kada si izgubljen u trenutku
ne mozes da vidis kuda ides
nisam znala kome mogu da verujem
zato polazem svu moju veru u nas
oh, rastavljas me na komade
pretvaras moju snagu u slabost
nisam htela da se sve to raspadne
zato sam odlucila samo da igram ulogu
 
pre refren
ali iskreno, ucinila bih sve to opet
nosila se sa svim tim budalastinama
to me je nacinilo jakom dovoljno da ucinim ovo
 
refren
ranije me je to uznemiravalo, pomisao da nikada necu moci da odem
nakon svega kroz sta sam prosla , nista nije ostalo da dokazem
ne,ne,ne, ne mislim na tebe
ceneci sebe nisko
izgubila sam zdrav razum
a sada kada smo zakljucili, da nemamo sta da izgubimo
ne,ne,ne, ne mislim na tebe
 
strofa 2
osecam slobodu gde se nalazim sada
vratila se u moje ruke
i ti si se zakleo da to nikada necu uciniti
ali ovo je tvoje vreme da se suocis sa muzikom

bilo je tesko nastaviti
danima i nocima sam mislila kako uopste necu uspeti
uopste necu moci da uspem
sada stojim uspravno
ponovo se osecam svojom, bez obzira na sve
disem
niko me ne moze zaustaviti da zivim u ovom trenutku za mene
nasla sam otkucaj mog srca
nakon svega sto sam prosla
ne, ne mislim na tebe

My song of longing

This is my song of longing
That I listen to to make it easier
To feel you the same today as I did yesterday
Maybe you'll come back, I still hope so.
 
Out of millions of love songs
I haven't found even one for her.
If it's quiet, I think that I'll lose my mind.
I want to write a song for her.
 
I stay and look for it among my memories,
It's like a film playing on repeat
I want to put what I lived into the lyrics
Even if our clock stopped a long time ago.
 
This is my song of longing
That I listen to to make it easier
To feel you the same today as I did yesterday
Maybe you'll come back, I still hope so.
 
This is my song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
 
Love is a mystery with solutions in the skies
I'm still looking for a response.
As long as it still isn't there, I will write it in songs
Which tell the story of where I've come.
 
I stay and look for it among my memories,
It's like a film playing on repeat
I want to put what I lived into the lyrics
Even if our clock stopped a long time ago.
 
This is my song of longing
That I listen to to make it easier
To feel you the same today as I did yesterday
Maybe you'll come back, I still hope so.
 
I lifted you up when you fell
Now we find each other only in the rain.
Since you left, a lot of time has poured away
Now I find you only in papers.
 
This is my song of longing
That I listen to to make it easier
To feel you the same today as I did yesterday
Maybe you'll come back, I still hope so.
 
This is my song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
My song of longing
Of longing, of longing, of longing
 
If I have made a mistake, please, tell me! Thank you!
Dacă am făcut o greșeală, te rog, spune-mi! Mulțumesc!

At the beginning of the bright season

At the beginning of the bright season, indeed,
in order to be joyous again, indeed,
and to annoy the jealous, indeed,
the queen wants to show
that she is so amorous.
Hit the road, hit the road, you jealous!
Let us, let us,
dance among us, among us.
 
She has had it announced everywhere, indeed,
that, as far as the sea, indeed,
there shan't be maiden nor young man, indeed,
who shan't all come to dance,
in the joyous dance.
Hit the road, hit the road, you jealous!
Let us, let us,
dance among us, among us.
 
The king comes, indeed,
to disturb the dance, indeed
for he is in turmoil, indeed
that someone would want to steal,
the April Queen.
Hit the road, hit the road, you jealous!
Let us, let us,
dance among us, among us.
 
But his toil is in vain, indeed,
for she doesn't care for an old man, indeed,
but for blithe young one, indeed,
who would well know how to please
the savoury lady.
Hit the road, hit the road, you jealous!
Let us, let us,
dance among us, among us.
 
Whoever would see her dance, indeed,
and her move her pretty body, indeed,
could well say, by his troth, indeed,
that she has no match in this world,
the joyous queen.
Hit the road, hit the road, you jealous!
Let us, let us,
dance among us, among us.
 

The key of success

The key of success
is to keep us sleeping
eating packed rubbish,
pulling daisy petals,
crying with the drama.
 
The key of success,
so they feel calm
all together,
playing Who, sir? Me, sir?
From the couch
looking at the screen
never complain,
never say enough.
 
It's the key of success
The key of success
The key of success
The key of success
 
'Do you swear with honor and patriotism
to defend us whenever they want?'
Yes, yes, yes
 
The key of success
is to keep us sleeping,
the key of success,
is to keep them calm.
All together
eating rubbish,
looking at the screen
crying with the drama.

The Nail

Hey, don’t tell me that you’re thinking about him
As bad as he was for you
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That you’re with me, that I take care of you
Unlike that idiot
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That I’ve replaced him
And he can go screw himself
 
I’ve been keeping track, this is the fifth time
But, I don’t understand why you don’t see it
You’re too good for him
Too tremendous of a woman to be with him
 
And if he looks for you at 4:20, it’s because he’s calling while drunk
He loves you now, but tomorrow he’ll hurt you again
Don’t cry for that bum
Let me fall in love with you
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That you’re with me, that I take care of you
Unlike that idiot
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That I’ve replaced him
And he can go screw himself
 
Hey, with my lips I want to go over
Every inch of your skin
Even what you don’t see
 
Hey, don’t tell me that you’re thinking about him
As bad as he was for you
Don’t tell me that you’re thinking about going back
 
And if he looks for you at 4:20, it’s because he’s calling while drunk
He loves you now, but tomorrow he’ll hurt you again
Don’t cry for that bum
Let me fall in love with you
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That you’re with me, that I take care of you
Unlike that idiot
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight

That you’re with me, that I take care of you
Unlike that idiot
 
If your boyfriend kicks you out tonight
Tell him that you’re not alone
That I’ve replaced him
And he can go screw himself
 

Dance, my life

One morning I left the harbour.
I set forth with a carefree heart,
not knowing where North was
and hoping only for a good wind
Mmmmm a good wind.
 
I crossed paths with a thousand people,
none of them smarter than me.
They fought the hurricane,
holding fast to any odd thing.
Mmmmm any odd thing
 
Come on and dance, dance, my life,
like a ship rolling on the waves,
roll, roll, roll, my life
like a star, like the universe.
Come on and sway, sway, sway, my life
like a charriot on a rocky path.
Bang, bang, bang, my life,
like a plane ripping through the air.
 
Some nights we're blue at first,
when storms get too heavy.
To ward off bad luck
we sing love songs yet again
Mmmmm love songs
 
Come on and dance, dance, my life,
like a ship rolling on the waves,
roll, roll, roll, my life
like a star, like the universe.
Come on and sway, sway, sway, my life
like a charriot on a rocky path.
Bang, bang, bang, my life,
like a plane ripping through the air.
 
[spoken]
Come on, dance, my life, dance
Show us how well you can dance.
You are pretty, appealing, arousing, captivating.
You are a woman
And, you see, tonight I look at you more closely than usual.
For once, I'm in no hurry.
Come on, dance , my life, be nice.
Give me a smile, you can sile so well when you want.
I love you, I love you, I love you so much.
 
Come on and dance, dance, my life,
like a ship rolling on the waves,
roll, roll, roll, my life
like a star, like the universe.
Come on and sway, sway, sway, my life
like a charriot on a rocky path.
Bang, bang, bang, my life,
like a plane ripping through the air.
 
Come on and dance, dance, my life,
like a ship rolling on the waves,
roll, roll, roll, my life
like a star, like the universe.
Come on and sway, sway, sway, my life
like a charriot on a rocky path.
Bang, bang, bang, my life,
like a plane ripping through the air.

You are as radiant as a rose

You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
The red wild rose has bloomed
On your carmine lips
Cornflowers are not as blue as your eyes
And in my heart
The nicest flowers cannot compare with you
You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
 
When I first saw your face
It was so dazzling!
I thought I saw in a mirage
All the springtime flowers
 
You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
The red wild rose has bloomed
On your carmine lips
Cornflowers are not as blue as your eyes
 
And in my heart
The nicest flowers cannot compare with you
You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
 
You have got the whole range
Of the loveliest flesh-colored flowers
If you marry me
I shall forget winters
 
You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
The red wild rose has bloomed
On your carmine lips
Cornflowers are not as blue as your eyes
And in my heart
The nicest flowers cannot compare with you
You are as radiant as a rose
And you are as fresh as jasmine
 

Врт

Никада ти нисам жељела
мање од свега
увијек, драга
 
Ако си и на небу срећна
поведи ме, да те пазим
да ти, увијек, будем близу
 
Цвијеће је моје мјесто
сада кад те нема
ја залијевам твој врт
 
Цвијеће је моје мјесто
сада кад те нема
ја залијевам твој врт
 
Већ сам ти обећала
да ћу се једном промијенити
или покушати бити већа
 
Ако си и на небу срећна
поведи ме, кунем ти се
увијек, за твоје добро
 
Цвијеће је моје мјесто
сада кад те нема
ја залијевам твој врт
 
Цвијеће је моје мјесто
сада кад те нема
ја залијевам твој врт
 
Сада кад те нема, ја залијевам твој врт
Сада кад те нема, ја залијевам твој врт
Сада кад те нема
Сада кад те нема, ја залијевам твој врт
 

Полиција за леђима

Е па бежао сам
а полиција ми за леђима,
крио сам се,
полиција ми за леђима,
била нека пуцњава,
полиција ми за леђима,
а жртва...
Па... тај се неће вратити...
 
Бежао сам понедељак, уторак, среду,
четвртак, петак, суботу, недељу...
Бежим понедељак, уторак, среду,
четвртак, петак, суботу, недељу...
 
Шта сам учинио?
Шта сам учинио?
 
Да, бежим
низ пругу,
је л' можеш да ми помогнеш?
Полиција ми је за леђима,
ухватиће ме
ако одустанем.
Можеш ли да ми
убрзаш бег, то ми сад фали?
 
Бежао сам понедељак, уторак, среду,
четвртак, петак, суботу, недељу...
Бежим понедељак, уторак, среду,
четвртак, петак, суботу, недељу...
 
Шта сам учинио?
Шта сам учинио?

Time's Flying

Are you happy or dissatisfied?
Hmm, probably the latter one
'Cause the stench is stuck on your clothes
It's so damn
Hard getting off one's ass
We become both mad and stupid
From the dull hesitation
Night can be made into day
Can you make night into day?
 
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
All the while time's flying
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
Time's flying
 
Copenhagen, a little less grey would help!
Life, it's so cowardly blaming it
When it's you who's pushing the cart
But I trudge all day
I trudge all night
When will you come, easiness?
Won't you let me in?
We become both mad and stupid
From the dull hesitation
 
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
All the while time's flying
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
Time's flying
 
Wavering eyes see more nothing than everything
And even though I know all the cognitive things which helped
I have
A bone1 in my nose2
One in quicksand lal3
The upcoming fall of the growing pile
Wavering eyes see
That even though I know everything
I know it all
I still have
Wavering eyes
Wavering eyes
Can you make night into day?
 
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
All the while time's flying
I'm not lazy
I'm just a bit slow at understanding how it works
The thing about working your ass off because you want to and to be redeemed
Time's flying

Feel Myself

I know you see me with your soul
I know you see me with voice and intuition
I always try to keep my cool
No matter what the situation
We just keep on going till the end of the world
And I take your hand
 
Let's show them that everything we've been through
It was never in vain
When we ain't together
Stand my ground
No matter where I am
Nothing has any value without you
Wherever you go, I'll go
 
I want to feel myself (Ooh)
I'll let myself go
Let it go, let it go
I want to feel myself (Ooh)
I'll let myself go
Let it go, let it go
La da da
 
Baby, baby, baby
You know where I am
Just come to meet me
Let's do it all over again
Like no one else ever did
You always do
 
The world is too small for us
When I see you, I freeze
I don't even know what to say
Everything changes in one second, in a snap
 
Wake up, my dream comes true
It's amazing watching you wear nothing
(Nothing, nothing)
I am out of the usual
But everything's the same, I want you
Don't tell me it's nothing
 
I'm not a bad girl
But since I'm not a bad
I also don't want to be good
No one does it like me
If you're here
We can be Beyoncé and Jay-Z
Rihanna and Drake
Baby, baby
 
Come to love me, let it ride
Our disagreements are in the past
So, let it ride
Me and you, it's getting hot
I know you can feel me
Tell me what you want tonight
I'm gonna do
 
I want to feel myself (Ooh)
I'll let myself go
Let it go, let it go
I want to feel myself (Ooh)
I'll let myself go
Let it go, let it go
La da da
 
There are some things that have no explanation
No
Let it ride
La da da

Da te dirnem

[Stih 1]
Kao montaža u filmu, taman pre nego što junak umre
Kao prvi put kada slušaš svog omiljenog pevača uživo
Kao eho u kanjonu
Kao suze, ali nisi tužna
Kao izlazak sunca nad planinom
Želim da te tako dirnem
 
[Refren]
(Ooh, ooo)
Oh, želim da te tako dirnem (ooh, ooh)
 
[Stih 2]
Kao simfonija tokom zalaska sunca, usred jula,
Kada te tekst pesme baš takne i slomi te iznutra
Kao dom u kome si odrastao
Kao izbledele fotografije
Kao uzbuđenje božićnog jutra
Da, želim da te tako dirnem
 
[Refren]
(Ooh, ooo)
Oh, želim da te tako dirnem (ooh, ooh)
 
[Stih 3]
Kao svečano aliluja,
Kada hor usklikne ,,Amin'' (amin)
Kao kada se prvi put zaljubiš ili stepenište ka nebu
Kao vojnik koji pada dok drži barjak svoje zemlje
I bori se za zov slobode
Želim da te tako dirnem
 
[Refren]
(Ooh, ooo)
Oh, želim da te tako dirnem (ooh, ooh)
Želim da te tako dirnem (ooh, ooh)
Ooh, tako, oh
(Ooh, ooh)
Želim da te tako dirnem (tako)
(Želim da te dirnem tako)
 
[Stih 4]
Kao beskrajna vatra kako gori
Kao nada koja hrani svetlost
Kao ruke koje te prosto drže, kada reči ne mogu da poprave stvar,
Kao prvi put kada sam te srela, i pala tako jako, tako brzo,
Kao montaža u filmu
Mmm, kako me dirneš
Želim da te tako dirnem
 

Golden Girl

I won't turn around anymore
No, I won't stay behind anymore
I won't hold me back anymore
No, I won't stop anymore
 
Here you will see who's the golden girl
On the beat, attitude, she's a knockout and dynamite
Then after I can be a ballerina
With my classy rhyme, my elegance is always on
 
Don't rush me
Everything has its time
To make it happen
I learned to be careful
I left my heart in your hands
Then I took it back
Now I need to get my sight back
 
I won't turn around anymore
No, I won't stay behind anymore
I won't hold me back anymore
No, I won't stop anymore
 
I won't turn around anymore
No, I won't stay behind anymore
I won't hold me back anymore
No, I won't stop anymore
 
We win to lose
And we lose to win
The balance of life is like this
These are moments to consider
I'm very demanding
And competition is my middle name
My words are my weapons
And also my defense
 
So, if you wanna fight
I'm not gonna stop you
But just don't complain later
Because I won't give up
I will never give up, no
 
I won't turn around anymore
No, I won't stay behind anymore
I won't hold me back anymore
No, I won't stop anymore
 
I won't turn around anymore
No, I won't... Ooh
I won't hold me back anymore
No, I won't stop anymore
 
Golden girl
She's a knockout, a knockout and dynamite
Or a ballerina
With my classy rhyme
My elegance is always on
 

At the Clear Fountain

At the clear fountain,
I go for a walk
I found the beautiful water
In which I bathed
 
Refrain :
It's been a long time ever since I loved you
Yet I never forgot you
 
Underneath the oak tree leaves,
I dry myself
On top of a very high branch,
A nightingale sings
 
Refrain
 
Sing, nightingale, sing,
You who has a happy heart
You have a laughing heart,
Me, I cried
 
Refrain
 
I had lost my love,
Which I shouldn't have deserved
For a bouquet of roses,
In which I refused her
 
[Refrain]
 
I would like just one rose
Still, another rose
And for my fresh love
Still, I love again1
 

• 1. Other version : And That of the Same Rose / At the Sea, Still Thrown.

I'm no longer yours

I don't need anyone
To tell me
When to go straight
When to turn
 
And who do you think you are
trying to judge me
You're wasting your time
Everything's over now
It's too late for you to learn
You've lost me years ago
Years ago
 
(Chorus)
I'm no longer yours
I'm not the one who suffers
Just to be loved by someone
 
I'll always be myself
Whether I'm good or bad
But I'll always be sure
Sure of myself
 
I don't need anyone
To show me
What to do
What I'm allowed to do
And what I'm not
 
And who do you think you are
trying to judge me
You're wasting your time
Everything's over now
It's too late for you to learn
You've lost me years ago
Years ago
 

Ijexá

Children of Gandhi, badauê1
Ylê ayiê,malê debalê,otum obá1
There's a mystery
That beats in the heart
The strength of a song
That has the gift of enchanting
 
There's a mystery
That beats in the heart
The strength of a song
That has the gift of enchanting
 
It's glow seems like
A shed sun
A silver sky
A sea of stars
 
Reveals the weightlessness
Of a suffering people
Of rare beauty
That lives singing
Profound greatness
 
It's richness
Comes from the past
From the congado2
I am sure
 
Daughters of Gandhi
Eh great people
Ojuladê,katendê,babá obá1
Grandchildren of Gandhi
People of Zambi
Brings to you
A new sound: Ijexá1
 

• Possibly meaningless words that are used for rhythm, or maybe African or Brazilian dialect words (I have no idea, I'm from Portugal not Brazil or Africa, and these communities have different dialects and words).
• 2. Afro-Brazilian traditional festivities in which the coronation of the King of Congo is recreated.

No

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
 
No, won't try
Convice me that it has to be like this
If it doesn't turn into
The life is long and I'm ready
I'm with myself always, 'till the end
 
And don't tell me
I don't know my place
And don't tell me
This isn't my place
And don't tell me
To put myself there, hidden, repressed
Looking to a living room
 
I know I'm not perfect
Not even dissatisfied
I withdraw and get crazy
I want everything in my hands
Wearing my hearphones
I spend my voice and all the air in my lungs
But I do have fun when they want to hear ''yes''
I say ''no''
 
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
No! No!
 
My eyes are transparents
They aren't green nor blue
and I'm sure it doesn't lie
It was what brought me from the South
 
I'm too far away from my house
I've spread my wings
and flew like someone who knows what wants
I've tried and had doubts
But I've found myself in the end
As someone who really knows what wants
 
I know I'm not perfect
Not even dissatisfied
I withdraw and get crazy
I want everything in my hands
Wearing my hearphones
I spend my voice and all the air in my lungs
But I do have fun when they want to hear ''yes''
I say ''no''
 
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
 
They wanna hear ''yes''
I say ''no!'
 
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
No-o-o-o-o
No
 
I hear all the rules
Just to be able to question them
I pay attention in the instructions
Just to adapt them
 
Not always I like everything
But I know how to respect them
Not always I'm good
But I know how to get better
Anesthetized
I thought was normal
Living desinterested
 
I want flexibility
All the loyalty for thoese who are with me
I've entered in this to evolve
When I sing
I close my eyes just to feel
Transmitting my dreams, my love, what there's in my heart
My essence, showing
My soul, to strip
The real beautiful the eyes can't see
And, because of this, isn't necessary to see God to believe in Him
 
I'll find you in the end of this way
The gold pot is me who brings
And I relieve the delay
Just don't ask too much
This journey is about searching my peace
 

Usidrena u prošlosti

Zato što je ljubav poput zamke
Izgubiš glavu ako voliš dušom
Ako od početka ne dobijaš ništa zauzvrat
Pa, šta započne pogrešno, uvek se tako i završava
 
I sada moraš početi od nule
Suočavajući se sa svojim novim svetom
Svi tvoji duhovi se noću vraćaju
Samu te muče i gubiš svoj mir
 
Želiš ga poljubiti
Osetiti njegovo telo
I žudiš za njim
Žrtva si vlastite prošlosti
I ne možeš nastaviti živeti
Usidrena
U prošlosti
 
Mislila si da će ovo biti večno
Kako niko ne pada i gubi poštovanje
Moraš živeti otvorenih očiju
I oni koji obećavaju, moraju to i dokazati i tada ću verovati
 
Zato što postoji mnogo ljudi
Koji pobrkaju ljubav i seks
I ne možeš nastaviti sa bežanjem, progoni te
Svi moji saveti su beskorisni
 
Želiš ga poljubiti
Osetiti njegovo telo
I žudiš za njim
Žrtva si vlastite prošlosti
I ne možeš nastaviti živeti
Usidrena
U prošlosti
 
Voleo bih da je sve savršeno
Da možeš izbrisati osećanja
Ne možeš više ništa slušati
Kada je onaj ko te lagao, govorio 'Volim te'
 
Ove reči završe u dvoboju
Koje pune pero krvlju
Pero u pismu traži da napusti svet
I nestane iz alfabeta
 
Želi ga poljubiti
Osetiti njegovo telo
I žudiš za njim
Žrtva si vlastite prošlosti
I ne možeš nastaviti živeti
Usidrena
U prošlosti
