It's So Good That You Are

It’s a fortuity of my being:
and then, the happiness in this heart of mine
is stronger than me, stronger than my bones,
that you crush in your embrace –
ever so painful, ever so divine.
 
Let’s talk, let’s speak, let’s utter words,
long and glassy, like chisels that separate
the cold river from the delta’s hot curves,
day from night, slate from slate.
 
Happiness, take me on high and slam
my brow against the moon,
until my world, overlong and in excess,
may turn into a column or something
much higher, something soon.
 
It’s so good that you are, so wondrous that I am!
Two different songs, colliding, intertwining,
two colours that never met before,
one from down below, turned toward the ground,
the other from high above, almost torn
in this unseen before fiery storm
of the wonder that you are, and the fortuity that I am.

You are my destiny

For me, you are
the destiny of my love,
and my heart has always beaten
faithfully for you.
 
You, the destiny that was born
in endless dreams,
You, the destiny that made
a unique course.
 
When you loved me,
you were a happy ray of faith
because the love I had dreamt of
may have shone in your eyes some time
 
For me, you are
the destiny of my love,
and my heart has always beaten
faithfully for you.
 
For me, you are
the destiny of my love,
and my heart has always beaten
faithfully for you.

Festival

A passage of light opens my eyes, awakening me
Beat the time, stronger, it enters me, I feel you here
This deep love overwhelms me, embrace me
It is a love that's different than anything, I like it that way
 
No do not stop me anymore
If you want to dance come on
Festival I feel this music
Which takes our soul
Festival you are my happiness
My magical night
 
I want to make you happy, I want to love you for how you are
This rhythm that grows is my tempo you're the DJ
Like a fire that burns in my heart it is my life
It rises at full volume, driving away this melancholy
 
No I do not wait for you anymore
If you want to dance jump on
Festival I feel this music
Which takes our soul
Festival you are my happiness
My magical night
 
Festival I feel this music
Which takes our soul
Festival you are my happiness
My magical night

Faithful to Destiny

[Alron:]
Oh Daltor, our fellow, you passed away
You left to reach the fields
Where sorrow and suffering cease to exist
And your rage can rest at last
I feel it, your spirit, it is with us
And it won't leave our side
Your body may be gone but your soul is here
Attending us in the Dark Cave
 
[Dorus:]
For my lands, for my gods
I will find the holy sword
We can't fail, we're all mighty warriors
We will march, we will fight
Only fate can divide
Our legend from victory!
 
[Alron:]
We promise your sacrifice won't be vain
We'll never stop the quest
And Dorus is given now the silver sword
That you let fall from above
I feel it, your spirit, it is with us
It gives us strength and hope
Your body may be gone but your soul is here
It's guiding us to the Dark Cave
 
[Dorus:]
For my lands, for my gods
I will find the holy sword
We can't fail, we're all mighty warriors
We will march, we will fight
Only fate can divide
Our legend from victory!
 
[Sendor:]
The great strong empire
Will impetuously flourish again
The dark angel will rise
And bring night and terror
 
[Group:]
Fury and rage lie in our hearts
Cruel Sendor, son of your own evil
Our path won't end
Until justice triumphs
Sword in the fist, life in the heart
Hope for endless peace in the eyes
Our path won't end
Until justice triumphs

I Believe in my Fate

I dreamt of a world,
Wonderful, far-off
I feel deep inside
That I need to be loved
 
And to be surrounded
By a cheering crowd
And I can hear a voice
Telling me where my path lies
 
And I shall walk my way
I believe in my fate!
I aim for the top
I feel no fear anymore
 
One never knows
I could prove
That I do know where I came from
Well, where i belong!
 
Yes, I do walk my way
I believe in my fate!
I trust in myself
I feel no dread anymore!
 
One never knows
I could prove
That I do know where I came from
Well, where i belong!
 
If that is the stake
I believe in my fate!
 
I shall face the fire
I do not fear anything!
The Gods will like me
They believe in my fate!
 
They will eventually receive me amongst them
Where I belong!

You and I forever

Versions: #2
Voices of children echo from the neighbor next door
Here on our side the silence and longing grow year after year
 
Like ducks in a Stenvall1 painting
One of us is awake under the striped bed sheets
How long can we still go on imagining this lullaby?
 
When we are next to each other
You face me and cry
Why did it turn out like this?
How can I make you believe?
I'll be here forever
I love you
Even if it's just you and I forever
 
Our selective glances are noticed wherever we go
In ads and in the beautiful creations of god in the parks
Maybe it's our time is now, we're waiting here in this familiar hallway
Soon they'll invite us into the room, I wish they'll bless us with happiness
 
When we are next to each other
You face me and cry
Why did it turn out like this?
How can I make you believe?
I'll be here forever
I love you
Even if it's just you and I forever
 
I'll always stand by my love
At the Christmas dinner table I want to protect you
From the questions they pose that hurt us
 
When we are next to each other
You face me and cry
How did it turn out like this?
How can I make you believe?
I'll be here forever
I love you
Even if it's just you and I forever

Para vestir santos [Opening]

I have my rouge faded,
and my hair is a mess,
I woke up and I don't remember
did you slept next to me
or did I kick you out before entering.
 
I dressed for the funeral.
black always looks best.
I dressed for a heart attack
and I am still naked
in the middle of this funeral.
 
Noo, every morning tastes bad
and it looks like this one is the same.
 
(Chorus)
The love ended
and it broke your heart
what can I say
if my live is going worse.
I love you y'know
that will always be the same.
One day you'll see
that our luck will change.
 
I have two words left
and three pains to heal.
I chew them with violence
scrunch and I remember you,
swallow and I start over again.
 
Noo, every morning tastes bad
and it looks like this one is the same.
 
(Chorus)
The love ended
and it broke your heart
what can I say
if my live is going worse.
I love you y'know
that will always be the same.
One day you'll see
that our luck will change.
 
The love ended

if my live is going worse.

Sonnet XXVII (Love, love, a habit I wore)

Love, love, a habit I wore
which from your cloth was cut
wearing it loosely1 it was more pinching
and constraining once it was upon me.
 
Now it's after what I consented
such a regret has taken me
that I try at times from grief
to rip this in which I put myself in.
 
But, who would from this habit get free
having such an opposite nature
that one comes to conform with it2.
 
If by luck some part remains
of my reason, it dares not show itself for my sake
not being secure3 in such a contradiction.
 
  • 1. lit. broadly, meaning a lot of it
  • 2. one comes to fit the habit better, as opposed to the other way around
  • 3. beautiful word play! it means sure, it means safe, and it means held fast

More questions

I have a lot of different questions!
 
Where did you get it from?
It's pink!
Did you carry it under your armpit?
What does it eat?
Does this thing think, since it has so tiny brain?
Honestly, I have as many questions as you do or more!
 
Where is it's horn?
Does it hear or not?
Does it like fruits? What about throwing it some?
How is it then?1 The stones say it doesn't exist.
The world is bigger, I'm telling you
How's that possible?
What?
What do you mean by 'bigger'?

Curiosity doesn't let us stay in one place
I don't understand.
Do you know anything more?

It persuades us to jump
 
Who would have guessed, who would have come up with it?
It, it staggers the imagination
I want to touch the mystery, take a step towards it
This bigger world has suddenly fallen to us
It's awesome2 news
So many questions, so many important things still don't let us sleep
Peek beyond the horizon
Is that art?
Fly high to the stars
Why did he go there?
Does he really wanna fly?

'Cause this world is full of wonders
Maybe it'll let us discover them3
 
Meechee: Muzzle4?! Sit!
Migo: Hey, I'm taking you now!
Meechee: Charge! Charge!

 
  • 1. This one is a bit tricky to translate, just like almost every Polish sentence with 'no'. 'No' can mean 'yeah', something like 'c'mon' and is used for emphasis too. Here it's both emphasis and the 'c'mon' thing.
  • 2. lit. knocking out
  • 3. In Polish there's no person in this sentence, so it can be 'Maybe it'll let me/us/etc discover them
  • 4. This word is often used when referring to our animals, like your dog or cat

Wonderful Questions

I ask myself many questions
Where does he come from?
Why is he pink?
Why did you bring him here?
What does it eat?
How can he think with a tiny brain?
To be honest, I'm asking myself as many questions as all of you
Where is his horn?
Does he want a piece of fruit?
How can he be here if a stone says it's impossible
 
The world is bigger than we thought
How? Why? What do you want to say?
It's just starting to reveal himself
I am very confused. Are there other secrets?
They need to be revealed
 
We didn't know there was all of this, this world is amazing
There are a million and one mysteries that are just waiting for you
There is still so much to know, it's almost unreasonable
It's curiosity, there's nothing wrong about that
 
There are responses 'Are you talking about art?'
Behind the clouds and the sky
What is he doing? Is he really going to fly?
There is a world of prosperity, a life of wonders

Reci mi

Verse
Zašto ne priznati sve
Jer ne treba mi tvoja zahvalnost
I nemoj pokušavati da je kriješ
Samo reci mi istinu
Ne mogu ovako da krenem dalje, tražeći nešto čega tu nema
Da li bih trebala da idem svojim putem
Jer treba mi razlog za ovu zbrku
 
Refren
Reci mi ako me ne voliš više
Samo reci mi, ako ti nije stalo do mene više
Samo reci mi, ako me više nećeš, samo reci mi (Reci mi)
 
Verse
Nisam nikad pomislila da će doći taj dan
 
Ali od tebe treba mi test prave ljubavi
Uvek se vidi iskrenost kroz očiju
Volela bih da me veruješ
Dajem ti moje sve ali nije ti dosta (tvoje srce je udaljeno)
Ako poštuješ moju ljubav, čućeš moju molbu
 
Reci mi ako me ne voliš više
Samo reci mi, ako ti nije stalo do mene više
Samo reci mi, ako me više nećeš, samo reci mi (Reci mi)

Painkiller

Hey, it's been a long time since we last saw each other
That was the time I needed, oh
I don't know why beer blesses me
I don't know why vodka blesses me
Hey, it's been a long time since we last saw each other
'Where did you go,' you ask
There's so much I want to tell you
So you give me reasons to stay here
 
Went from being wasted all the time
To being dedicated
To being drunk again
It's been 4 years since last time we spoke, but I'm here again now
I had a couple of setbacks along the way
And then played some other games for a while
And sang some other songs for a while
But I think it's right this time
I remember when we got wasted on lukewarm DP1
Literally knocking over the garden wall, and everyone needed to see it
But we were so young
But now we're young, drunk, and dump again, so let's get
This shit going before we go home
 
'Cause I live life, can't get down
'Cause I've got way, way too many friends
And I've got way, way too many friends
Friends with me on the stage when we play late
And we're living life
Can't get down
'Cause I've got way, way too many friends
And I've got way, way too many friends
Friends with me on the stage when we play late
 
Hey, it's been a long time since we last saw each other
That was the time I needed, oh
I don't know why beer blesses me
I don't know why vodka blesses me
Hey, it's been a long time since we last saw each other
'Where did you go,' you ask
There's so much I want to tell you
So you give me reasons to stay here
 
It's 10 years since it all started
No one thought it would last
Me and Luke in my parents' old garage
We didn't need that much
Just a computer we could mess around with
Recorded everything we did
Met the boys
Some new people, we could sail
The models, bonfire in the forest, our entire crew was gathered
Cheap booze and cheroots we couldn't inhale
But we went to the studio and said
'Look how fucking awesome we are'
 
We got a future doing something we enjoy
With my boys
You can find me, reclined
No stress
'Cause I had DP in my bag
But there are no qualms now
'Cause I know my boys are paying
Coming straight from Vestegnen2
With a smile on my lips, yeah
'Cause nothing's getting in our way now
And nothing's getting in our way now
We're high on pure percents, it's nice
I'm going to Gilleleje with my boys
So raise your glass
Get fucked up
'Cause if DDH can do it, then so can you, surely

Talk to me about spring

If you'd ask me why the days seem to me like passing
At the speed of a snail,
I'd tell you :
I was waiting for you.
 
If you'd ask me why I feel like I am lost
In an unknown city,
I'd tell you :
I was looking for you.
 
But because, you see, no star told me when you will come
And how you will come,
I have stopped, yes , I stopped,
And since then, I completely gave up.
Let the weeks pass in their will,
As they like...
But I was still hoping
That you will come.
 
Talk to me about spring
Like about a truth near,
Which promises you happiness
And keeps its word.
 
Talk to me about spring
Like how you talk about love
And whole era of youth
I'll keep silent and I'll listen to you.
 
If you'd ask me how I succeed to make confessions
Even just through glances
I'd tell you :
That's how I am .
 
I don't feel sorry that I let the weeks pass by
In their will
As they like,
Because I knew that you'd come.
 
Not about something else, but talk to me...
 
Talk to me about spring
Like about a truth near,
Which promises you happiness
And keeps its word.
 
Talk to me about spring
Like how you talk about love
And whole era of youth
I'll keep silent and I'll listen to you.
 
And whole era of youth
I'll keep silent and I'll listen to you.

Loving two lads


Oh, my heart, why do you shudder,
and why did you lose your serenity?
This suitor is really nice,
but the other one is not bad either.
I'm in love, I'm burning and suffering.
Which one is dearest to me?
Loving two lads is so hard
Loving two lads is so hard
Loving two lads is so hard
It's so hard to love two lads.
I'm happy and sad at the same time,
I'm feverish and trembling.
I like this admirer very much,
but is he as good as he looks?
I'm determined to get married,
but who will be my husband?
Loving two lads is so hard
Loving two lads is so hard
Loving two lads is so hard
It's so hard to love two lads.
 
Loving two lads is so hard
It's so hard to love two lads.

Love

When love is really strong, it can't be stopped,
It won't be frightened and it won't give ground,
So let them threaten, beg, and scold,
And let them promise piles of gold,
Yet no one'll buy it, break it, or confound,
No!
For love's daydreaming and it's counting gains,
For love is sheer insanity and reason,
And uninvited it will come
To where it's not allowed to run,
For love does not obey the orders given,
No!
 
And having flashed like lightning in the night,
Love crushes sly designs of evil fortune,
Resound, (ye) hymn of love, ring with delight,
For swords may clink with all their might,
When strings have lost the strength to sing their love tunes,
No!

Ok, I get it that most of you just can't bring yourselves
to pressing 'Thanks' when you have already enjoyed
and probably sung an equirhythmic rhymed translation
and then realized that you couldn't have done a better
one yourself. Yet, avoiding this gesture implicitly helps
to promote other, often subpar work on this site. St.

You're not the way you were anymore

Winter's gonna come as in the old days
and the sky as always
the loneliest ones will dream in the station
the moon above...
I'll see two angels in the parking lot
just singers at the gate
the house at the corner will have
the colour of a morning...
 
But you're not
the way you were anymore
No, you're not
the way you were when you were mine...
You're not
the way you were anymore
No, you're not
the way you were when you were mine...
 
The bells will ring again
never late, as usually
the phone will ring the same way:
one-two-three...
We'll listen to the same jokes
we'll laugh all so much
and we'll be back for an hour
there in the past...
 
But you're not
the way you were anymore
No, you're not
the way you were when you were mine...
You're not
the way you were anymore
No, you're not
the way you were when you were mine...

Love is a question


Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Love structure
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Somebody teach me
 
When a boy
Kisses a girl
Why they always
Close their eyes?
 
Though to my nightingale
I want to ask
Because a lovely romance
I jush showed
 
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Hard questions
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Love is an enigma
 
Everytime the boys
Want to see
The unpainted faces of the girls
Is it something perverted?
 
Though to my nightingale
I want to ask
Honest feelings
I seem to feel softly
 
Maybe my nightingale
Doesn't know either
Honest feelings
I seem to feel softly
 
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Tricky questions
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Love isn't solved
 
Qu qu qu qu question
Question. Love structure
Qu qu qu qu question

Destiny of guitarist

I want to separate from the sky
a companion star
that be light of my destiny
soul of my chacarera.
 
I would like to be the way
owner of course and distances
where dreams go by
and only longings come back.
 
And I want to gp there like the wind
that nobody ever sees me,
(I want to) sow life around the world
little it matters to whoever it is (I do it for).
 
(I want) To be ardent sun in January
of my peasants coat
and the miracle of the furrows
when my light becomes wheat.
 
I want to be the water
sweet of docile growing
breath, life and freshness
(I want to be) for the living beings.
 
I want to be like the night,
full of stars without owner,
meek refuge of the man,
guardian of all his dreams.
 
I want to walk fromplace to place (from hometown to hometown)
with the truth in my hands
and in my mouth the sweetness
of the Quichua of my peasants.
 
To be a lot and not to have anything
but that luck I prefer:
to be the heart of my hometown.

Priča lepotice

Molim te obriši oči, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi kriva, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi ti ta za kriviti
Uskoro sve će biti u redu
Jednog dana ćeš da shvatiš
Tvoju lepotu
 
Bila je subota
Jedno hladno popodne
U ovoj kući živela je
Jedna uplašena devojka
Nije znala šta bi trebala da uradi
Jer toliko je njoj nedostajala svoja majka
Bila je ostavljena kod kuće, sasvim sama
Sa svojom očuhom
 
Molim te obriši oči, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi kriva, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa
Nisi ti ta za kriviti
Uskoro sve će biti u redu
Jednog dana ćeš da shvatiš
Tvoju lepotu
 
Dirao je nju u mestima
Koje nije trebao dirati
Uradio je njoj stvari
Koje nije trebao uraditi
Pa je pobegla u svoju sobu
I rekla majci da zove miliciju
Pa je tragedija počela
Za ovu mladu devojku
 
Rekla je svojoj majci
Familiji and drugaricima
Niko nije nju verovao
Jer prije nego što se ovo desilo
Bila je prepuna mržnje i besa
Prema svome očuhu
Jer je njoj oduzeo majku
Kad su se venčali
 
Molim te obriši oči, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi kriva, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi ti ta za kriviti
Uskoro sve će biti u redu
Jednog dana ćeš da shvatiš
Tvoju lepotu
 
Tražila je oca
U muškarcima koje je videla
Mislila je da sve što može da nudi
Je bilo svoje telo
Niko nije mogao da shvati zbog čega
Bi ova mlada devojka živela svoj život
Sa tolikim bolom i nesrećom
Jer bila je tako lepa
 
Pobunila se i jednog dana
Ta mlada devojka se zaljubila
U drugog čoveka baš kao njezin očuh
I emocionalno je nju zlostavljao
I činio je nju da se oseća bezvrednom
Nadam se da će jednog dana shvatiti
I da će videti lepotu u svojim očima
Njoj sam treba molitva i snaga
Prelepa je
 
Molim te obriši oči, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi kriva, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi ti ta za kriviti
Uskoro sve će biti u redu
Jednog dana ćeš da shvatiš
Tvoju lepotu
 
Molim te obriši oči, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi kriva, mlada devojko
Ne plači, prelepa si
Nisi ti ta za kriviti
Uskoro sve će biti u redu
Jednog dana ćeš da shvatiš
Tvoju lepotu
 
Nemoj da pogneš glavu
Imaš puno toga, puno toga
Puno toga, puno toga, puno toga čime se može ponositi
Možeš ipak da živiš svoj život
Obećam ti da ćeš da preživiš
Devojko, volim te
Prelepa si

Ne može ona da te voli

[Beyonce:]
Videla sam tvoju novu devojku prije neki dan
I očekivala sam da će da bude više od toga nego što je bila
Smatrala sam njezin stil, kako se smijala
Njezin hod, i sve što je rekla
Kako je mene pogledala, kao da mi govori 'osvojila sam tvog dečka'
 
Ne može ona da te voli kao i ja
Njezina grozna ljubav se ne može usporediti sa mojom
Ne može ona da te mazi kao i ja
Jer kad se mazite, praviš se da smo to ti i ja
 
I nema šanse da je njezina ljubav dobra baš kao i moja
Nema razloga da ti sad gubiš vreme
 
[Beyonce:]
Kad smo bili zajedno, rekao si mi kakve žene ti se ne dopadaju
A otišao si i baš si sebi takvu našao
Sem što tvoja nova devojka se ne može usporediti sa mnom
Sve što je pogrešno uradila - uvek sam uradila kako treba
 
[2]
Ne može ona da te drži kao i ja
Dečko, glup si ako ne možeš da shavtiš šta si imao
Ne može ona da te oseti kao i ja
Jer sam takva devojka koja je uvek uz svog dečka
 
I nema šanse da je njezina ljubav dobra baš kao i moja
Nema razloga da ti sad gubiš vreme
I nema šanse da je njezina ljubav dobra baš kao i moja
Nema razloga da ti sad gubiš vreme
 
Nema šanse, nema šanse
da njezina ljubav bi mogla da bude dobra kao i moja
nema razloga, nema razloga
da ti sad gubiš vreme, tvoje vreme
 
I nema šanse da je njezina ljubav dobra baš kao i moja
Nema razloga da ti sad gubiš vreme
I nema šanse da je njezina ljubav dobra baš kao i moja
Nema razloga da ti sad gubiš vreme

Stand upon the tower like Habakkuk

Stand upon the tower like Habakkuk, in those old days.
Stand upon the tower, watching over , the Lord will come
 
/: Stand upon the tower : /, to be as like your Master
Stay stable, steadfast, be strong now. : /
 
Stand upon the tower as a watchman, who's waiting for dawn
When the night ending and the fog is gone.
 
Stand upon the tower even in bad weather, if it's rain or storm
Stand upon the tower, again will be sunny and fine weather.
 
Stand upon the tower, that's your duty at the end of times
Be awake to hear what the Lord wants to tell you.
 
Stand upon the tower like Habakkuk, in those old days.
Stand upon the tower, watching over , the Lord will come

Rivals of destiny

A new adventure, a new day
New tasks, one after the other
The duty doesn't let us rest
There's still a lot to do for us
 
No, no way is too far away for us
Because we manage to do everything side by side
We stand close together
And go through ice and flames
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Because the destiny wants it so
 
No questions remain open
You're what leads me forwards
Just how can it be?
The power's in the two of us
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Because the destiny wants it so
Pokémon
 
You're my right hand
You're my left
You give me the power
Not to sink in the chaos
Ooh - Wherever I fight
Ooh - Wherever you are
Ooh - We sense together that everything's alright
 
And if the ship shatters, our friendship remains
And if the world falls apart, we don't despair
Standing upright, going forwards
Doing better than just watching
Because the destiny wants it so
Pokémon

Today the Beast Dines at Home

I have invited the beast to dinner at home.
I have put out the best tablecloth, the most expensive cutlery.
He is punctual, very formal, he has a silver-plated nose.
His smile tells me that he has already sold his soul.
 
You speak with tact like you do from the dais.
Your private school rhetoric is a crowning achievement.
The part in your hair is perfect, you learned that in kindergarten.
You're the second course, a real catch.
 
Meow, meow, meow,
Sounds in my head,
Your words are hollow.
Meow, meow,
Your jokes crack me up,
I laugh with my mouth full.
You speak to me fearfully,
So handsome, so naked
So creepy, so second-best.
 
If you are so brave, lend me your belly,
Sell me your sisters' children
Let me drink a little of your blood.
Take out your eyes, rent me your flesh.
 
Meow, meow, meow,
Sounds in my head,
Your words are hollow.
Meow, meow,
Your jokes crack me up,
I laugh with my mouth full.
You speak to me fearfully,
So handsome, so naked
So creepy, so secondary.(x2)
 
Meow, meow, meow,
Sounds in my head,

So creepy, so secondary.(x2)

My six-stringed friend

Won't you play me a tune, my six-stringed guitar?
Help me recall times of old.
Your wails, your sorrowful sounds
intoxicate me more than a strong wine.
 
See how I take my beloved guitar in my hands,
play a chord and sing along.
I sing of my love and youth,
and the girl I love.
 
(chorus)
Resound, my guitar, so dolefully,
and play my song to the end.
May it fly into the girls' white bosoms
and melt their hearts of ice.
 
I sang so many griefs, so much happiness,
I shared it all with you.
They were problems, my loved one cheated on me,
but you never were unfaithful.
 
(chorus)
 
When my time comes to depart this Earth,
I'll gather my friends and tell them:
'lay down my six-stringed friend next to me in my grave,
and I will wake every dead on Earth!'
 
Maybe I'll burn in the flames of hell,
maybe I'll end up in paradise.
My six-stringed friend will always help me
and sing of my past life.
 
(chorus)
 
and melt their hearts of ice...

Too often

You never knew how to tell me
With a smile or with a word
That you love me
 
Like a child scared of the sea
You are just standing in shallow water, with wet legs
But still too often
 
You never knew how to tell me
Whether with a movement or with a word
That you love me
 
They say that the climate is too blame for everything
That the rain makes the tears grow, like rivers
But still too often
 
You never knew how to tell me
Whether with a smile or with a word
That you love me
 
Like a child scared of the sea
You are just standing in shallow water, with wet legs
But still too often
 
I think of us as a defeat in a war

Testimony

I'm not giving up my existence
Like a dying man in the flesh
The sorrow doesn't remain behind
 
A victim to whom loss now sticks
 
I am the witness to my mortality
The witness to my own death
Here I am and I just watch myself
Death spreads over me
 
I am a witness to my death1
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
 
As a true witness to my own death
I experience dying, here in my own body
Oh, as a true witness to my own death
Oh, I experience dying here and now in myself, ah, ah, ah
 
My street doesn't end there at the gate
To step through it is forbidden to the body
But my body will finally set me free, me free, me free
Trapped here inside myself
Where death can't get me
 
No peace, no going back
No comfort and no sorrow
No peace, no going back
No comfort and no sorrow
 
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
 
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
 
As a true witness to my own death
I experience dying, here in my own body
As a true witness to my own death
Oh, I experience dying, here in my own body
 
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
I am a witness to my death
 
  • 1. From the German text, I'm assuming this is what is meant here, in which case it should be 'Testis sum meo morti'. For 'It is witness to my death': 'Testis est meo morti'. Any suggestions welcome.

Гозба

Снови љубавника су као добро вино,
доносе радост али и тугу.
Слаб од глади, несрећан сам,
крадем све што ми се нађе на путу,
јер ништа није бесплатно у животу.
 
Нада је јело које се пребрзо једе,
а ја сам навикао да прескачем оброке.
Усамљен и гладан лопов на смрт је тужан,
а што се нас тиче, огорчен сам, желим да успем,
јер ништа није бесплатно...
 
У животу... Нико не може да ми каже
да није за мене да дохватим звезде.
Дозволите да вас запањим и полетим,
јер на крају ми ћемо имати гозбу.
 
Славље коначно почиње,
донесите пиће, муке су готове.
Постављам трпезу мог новог живота,
радују ме мисли о новој судбини.
Живот у сакривању, а сад сам коначно слободан,
гозба је на путу.
 
(превео Гаврило Дошен)

Where are you, my childhood

Ref: Where are you, my childhood?
You've passed so quickly
Towards unknown years
I'm going, I'm going...
 
Even now, I can hear in the mountains
Sounding the alphorns
Like in the years of my youth
Which are gone with the wind
 
I was once, I was once
A young with big dreams
God, so many times
Travel longing carried me far away
 
To get rich and make a name for yourself
In the gentlemen's world
You have to leave the village with fairies
And the ballads at the springs
 
Since I've been gone in the world
To give my life a meaning
The old ballads have changed
Nothing is what it used to be
 
I'm on the top of the years
And I look up
God, where's my youth?
It's gone too fast....

Bucharest

It stresses,it triggeres some,
But what does it matter?
Come with me if you wanna visit it
Don’t make illusions,it’s not what you think
It’s divided in neighborhoods by a bunch of sly boys
Every district has it’s own city boy
If you ask me where I live
I’ll say in Sălăjan,in the center of the periphery
Where corn knocks on your window
 
I was joking of course,
But better be careful
You don’t want to get in a fight with some nuthead
Because every kid has some money in his pocket
It’s a sly night so there’s no point
to explain to that kid that he’s nuts
Let him be with his nose up high
Because at every street corner you’ll find thousands of them
Maybe I forgot to tell you,but you’re in Bucharest!
 
You know it,this is Bucharest
You know it,you’re gonna get it
This is a paradise of stray people
A country of tramps!
 
Cells,ladies that smile in Mercedeses
Kids and kiddos that beg for something to eat
In Balta Albă,Pantelimon,we go everywhere’s the same
Colentina,Titan,the same type of districts
Blocks and rough streets
Not everything is a dream
This was a little paradise
But now it’s a stray people paradise
 
In the summer heat
The season with lots of women
You can guess their curves in their way too tight clothes
And your mouth waters when you see them licking on their ice creams
And you almost forget you have a girl home waiting for you
You can’t stand the temptation
And the pile of money from your pocket is starting to thin badly
Perverted chicks
They shake it for money
While the arabs salivate around their tables
Anyway,be careful
Don’t mess it up,you don’t wanna get it
Because I forgot to tell you,this is...
 
You know it,It’s Bucharest,
You know it,you’re gonna get it
This is the paradise of stray people,
A country of tramps!
 
Not everyone does illegal stuff
There’s a small percent that work everyday
For nothing,they work a whole life
But they know well that they won’t live well
Boys do combinations,they don’t care
Because in the end the innocent fall in the trap
At night,Bucharest,clubs are full
Why do they see life better from the bottom of the bottle.
 
This is the city I live in
Big and perverted
All I do is write another verse
To leave boys with their mouth wide open
My style of bad boy starts to get popular around them
And they can’t to nothing when I have my boys behind my back
They’re on my side,I’m like a brother to them
Respect Bucharest
The city I was born in
Wherever I’d go in the world,I won’t forget it.
 
You know it,this is Bucharest
You know it,you’re gonna get it
This is a paradise to stray people
A country of tramps!

Beauty and the Beast

Look, there is a beast who will soon fall asleep
Every time that you, beautiful as you are, smile at it
A small change, one would say little
Fear and friendship, the beast with the beauty
This is life
It's always the same
Always strange and new
Always as before
Always more certain than the sunrise
That melody, another harmony
True magic will totally change all that you know
Like the sun that rises above
It will take you away with song
Beyond lifetimes
Happiness

Beauty and the Beast - Eternal Story

Eternal story
How very true it is
Two strange hearts
That secret gestures
Suddenly put together
 
A very little change
Small differences
Both are afraid
And they are not prepared
Beauty and the Beast
 
Ever the same
Ever strangeness
Ever as before
Ever more certain
Than the sunrise
 
Eternal story
Like harmony
Bitter and sweet
To see changes
To learn the wrongs
 
The dreamers are preparing themselves
To begin
Once upon a time for us there were
In eternal stories
Beauty and the Beast
 
Once upon a time for us there were
In eternal stories
Beauty and the Beast
