Forgive me

It's been a long time since you left me
Lost in the darkness, crying for your absence
For your love I was on the brink of loosing my life
And I cut my veins because I couldn't understand
 
How could you abandon me
If I always gave you the best of me
And now you dare seek me
When I have no more love for you, for you
 
Forgive me, forgive me
I don't want to talk to you
You can't be my friend anymore
And much less my love
 
Forgive me, forgive me
Go your way again
Forget I exist
And never come back, please
Forgive me, forgive me

Foreigner

[Part 1]:
I'm born here and will grow old out here
I am a Turk with indefinite residence
You needn't look at me like that, homie[?], just because I've got black hair
It wasn't easy here, it was 26 hard years
And our parents, canim, needed the money
They've worked hard here and built a new world
Dad was hassled as if he was a terrorist
Therefore today I live where the toughest ghetto is
Where only Kurds, Russians, Arabs and Turks live
Where people must fight for a small salary
You are well off up there but down here we have a rough ride
For you we are wogs but still must join the army
I am not fascist - I've just grown up like this
When I'm in East Germany, I also know some skinheads
We're at home here, it's about time you get it today
Almost everyone of us on the street's got a German passport
 
[Hook]:
I'm a foreigner but I'm born here
Too many are in prison, only a few have become something
I'm a foreigner, canim, it's not been easy for us here
The street in the ghetto hasn't made anybody rich
I'm a foreigner but Berlin is my home
My home, my city, sometimes you also get your face smashed here
I'm a foreigner but for you I'm a wog, canim,
but still I'm here and live under the German flag
 
[Part 2]:
There are many gangs here and too many daredevils
Yes it's true, most of them are foreigners
Look, every other one in our district has got a criminal record
You act like a gangster but nobody in your village is tough
In the past everything was different, I've also stolen
And some good friends of mine have been deported
I know one has no reason and no right to attack someone
But they'll always find a reason to turn you in
And today we beat up each other
Much has changed - it's not like 30 years ago
Back then we stuck together and were just against nazis
Now you've got trouble with people you see every day
But in my district we're like a family
I like living in Schöneberg because I love everyone here
I can't go away because I need this place
Look, Berlin is my home
Berlin is our home
 
[Hook]:
I'm a foreigner but I'm born here
Too many are in prison, only a few have become something
I'm a foreigner, canim, it's not been easy for us here
The street in the ghetto hasn't made anybody rich
I'm a foreigner but Berlin is my home
My home, my city, sometimes you also get your face smashed here
I'm a foreigner but for you I'm a wog, canim,
but still I'm here and live under the German flag
 
[Part 3]:
You have to believe me, dealing with you isn't easy
You throw us all together and say we're all the same
I often fought, but my brother didn't want to be like that
But still he can't go to any club because of his looks
Turks kill for honour and also go on a caper
And some Germans rather have sex with little children
Not all of us would deal in coke or heroin
I mean, I also don't say every German is mental and paedophile
It's like a vine with big and small grapes
If one is bad it doesn't mean that all are rotten the same
We had to fight and never wanted anything from you
You should just know, we're also a part of the German people
 
[Hook]:

To Melpomene (III, 30)

I have created a monument more lasting than bronze,
And higher than the royal site of the pyramids,
Which neither harsh rains nor the wild North wind
Can erode, nor the countless succession of years
And the flight of the seasons.
I will not entirely die! and a large part of me will avoid the grave.
Constantly renewed, I will grow in the eyes of posterity,
So long as the Pontifex and the solemn Vestal visit the Capitoline.
Where the river Aufidus roars, and where Daunus in the dry summers, ruled his rural folk,
I, risen to greatness from humble beginnings, will be renowned
As the first to adapt the Aoelian verses to Italian meters.
Take the well-deserved pride, Melpomene,
And freely grant me the wreath of Apollo for my crown.

Krivac ili nedužan

Upravo sada kada si otišla
Rekli su mi da si me varala
Zašto tako brzo imaš puno neprijatelja?
Zašto ti se moram izvinjavati?
 
Ukoliko lažu, molim te brani se
Znam da nećeš to uraditi, dakle istina je
Šteta jer ćeš me uvek boleti
Krivac ili nedužan, šta tu mogu učiniti?
 
Laži me kao i uvek, molim te laži me
Potrebno mi je da ti verujem, ubedi me
Slaži me uz poljubac neka zaliči na ljubav
Potrebno mi je da te volim, krivac ili nedužan
 
Nemam prava da ti zamerim bilo šta
Ništa više nema od tebe, mene, od juče
Šteta, naša priča je mogla biti neverovatna
Reci mi sad ljubavi ko će te braniti?

Yellow Tulips

Fountains are dry now, and the summer left the town.
You have come with tulips, I’m surprised by their colour.
Don’t you know of it: the colour can be cruel hint.
The flowers were yellow, oh-oh-oh, flowers were yellow.
 
(refrain)
Amber-yellow tulips’re messengers of parting,
They are of the colour fading morning star,
fading morning star.
Amber-yellow tulips touched your hands, my darling.
They recall you smiling, they are festive plants,
strong and festive plants.
Those yellow tulips touched your hands, my darling.
They recall you smiling,
strong and festive plants, o-o-o
strong and festive plants, o-o-o,
strong and festive plants.
 
You are leaving, darling, and the city’ll get quite silent
Quarrel was so stupid, you‘re right I cannot argue.
Flowers shouldn’t be blamed for all my dreams flew away.
Amber-yellow tulips, o-o-o, amber-yellow tulips.
 
(refrain)

You are the one to Blame

Versions: #3
you are the one to blame for
this anguish and this torture, this pain and all this misery
you've filled my life with nothing
except these sweet anxieties and all these bitter memories
 
your love is like an outburst
i carry in my being and also in my heart
i have no choice about this
i'm just a slave in your eyes, a plaything for your love
 
don't play with my anxiety, don't play with my emotions
they are the only ones i've got
your are my one and only, my final hope for living
you must believe it once
 
you know it makes me desperate
it kills me, it drives me crazy
you know i'd give my whole life to overcome my fear
of kissing you

Sparkling Pearly Eyes

In the hurdle race over a thousand ifs and buts
instead of straight to an unknown goal.
I'm in my own way again
Where is a place to rest in this game without borders?
 
I think too much about the day after tomorrow
Think too much about me,
I've changed my view to now and here and you
and you do this:
 
You fix me 1 with your sparkling pearly eyes,
It does me good, there's so much for me there.
It helps much more than any speech, any thought
Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.
 
The waves are almost closing over our heads
but with you in the boat I'll suffer any rough sea
The wind whips in my face again
but with you behind me it hurts half as much
 
Don't leave me alone with myself
Let me into you
I want to feel so much, you and now and here,
and what do you do?
 
You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes,
It does me good, there's so much for me there.
It helps much more than any speech, any thought
Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.
 
It's like a balsam, like a real little miracle,
it heals much better than any medicine
 
Come and hold me
Hold me tight and squeeze me
as tight as you can
 
You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes...

Half a heart

Can I go now ?
You're lower your head and saying nothing.
Love looks like a cup of overnight tea.

We can still keep going.
Even it is a wishful thinking.
Please let me keep it.
Don't let this relation be over from now on.
 
Half a heart, whether or not you give me it?

My rainbow, my childhood, a smile of my father
His heart resting in his open hands
Given to me to the full.
 
My rainbow, my mother
Who disappeared above the river of my tears
The river reflected her, but soon all was gone
No more lightning, no clouds, no storms.
 
My rainbow, my children
This one shines the brightest when I'm gone
I'm glad I was present in this world
I dance with two rainbows.
 
Rays of the sun of my love got refracted in the drops of the rain of time
And the precious light of the rainbow of her eyes
Shines brightly above all.
 
My rainbow is not those around me
But those I'm close to
Those who have me behind their backs
When tears are the only reward for the day.
 
Everyone meets their best sunset
As no one is under the sky for long
I don't feel sorry, but I was glad to be here
I witnessed the rainbow.
 
Rainbow imprisoned into a square cell of the flag
Waves above heads that have no more light within
The ones with stinky moonshine of nonsense ideas
Where rainbow mixes into a brown spot.

Morning walked into the city, like a child dancing in silence
And it became clear, how hard it was yesterday for me and you
To come home through familiar streets
Through the unreciprocated crudeness of faceless crowd
Through the city given away to chickens
Who still run around headless.
 
Blood and smashed windows on the sidewalks
Morning coughs black smoke of burnt cars
A boiled beet of the sun
Rises above the city where I was murdered
A burned down match head drops on the floor
Now you got used to crying
Damn these fucking rebels.
 
The tune was the same - freedom and justice
High-rises swarming with hundreds of thousands of assholes
None of them worthy of that very freedom
And I'm hanging on the dull knives, now I'm totally free.
 
People broken into pieces, people cut open in parts
Break each other's heads and tear each other's mouths
People broken into pieces, people cut open in parts
Break each other's heads and tear each other's mouths
 
Morning has run around schools, kindergartens
And now day fell on its knees
But hardly anyone who was there last night now feels happy
Waking up in the debris of drunkenness and rampant laziness
They'll never understand anything
The storefronts of their eyes are nailed with thick plywood
And I'll be here, I'll stay
As a thirst of bullets loaded into sleeping guns.

in the end, everything passes


They say, two years from now
all the melodies will end
and I'll have nothing to sing to you
in some sad moment
it's like a 'Déjà vu'
come closer now
tight, tight
 
they say that the sky
will peel soon
and god
will save us from all the madness.
 
so what are you afraid from?
what are you afraid from?
 
in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
and soldiers come back home from their officer
to a crazy weekend
maybe to a lonely island
there are people who only engage in being scared
all their life
 
you are rolling to yourself a cigarette and say that...
through red eyes, we can see more beautiful
look, in the end every color peels
I think...
 
in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
so in the end, everything passes
I remember I was hurt once
my heart was broken
by someone I loved so much
all the moments I was happy in them
came to their end in a second
came to their end in a second
 
in the end, everything passes
that's what my mother have told me
time is flying by
like airplanes in the sky
everything passes in the end
many people I used to know
they won't come back
they won't come back

Yes, Exactly!

You'll se it won't take more than a few days
Love is unworthy of feeling bad about it
One day surely we'll laugh again
If we notice it doesn't work then we can drink tea
 
'I am not like anyone'
Do you remember you said 'I am different from them'?
Yes, exactly!
 
All people you flatterd
It kicked up
Yes, exactly!
 
Tonight among friends
A table prepared in honor of you
Your name is a curse now in our words
Why'd you care about this?
They told which is
 
You'll se it won't take more than a few days
Love is unworthy of feeling bad about it
One day surely we'll laugh again
If we notice it doesn't work then we can drink tea

It’s Not My Fault

I didn’t want to fall in love with you, because I knew what you thought of me.
But I fell in love, I don’t know how
But I fell in love, I don’t know how
I understood well that you’ll never love me
But what to do if I love you more every time
 
(Chorus)
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, my heart is guilty
 
I understood well that you’ll never love me
But what to do if I love you more every time
 
(Chorus)
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, guilty
It’s not my fault
It’s not my fault
Guilty, my heart is guilty

I Thank Before Thee

For the singing rain
For the sun upon the mountain
For the sparing bread
For the foreign beauty
Thank You.
For the voice of the bird that sang a simple song
When I wished to die
Thank You
 
For the pure salt
For the clear wine
For the soft pleasure
For the damp sadness
Thank You
For the green grass that served as my bed
When I made love to her
Thank You
 
I thank before Thee
For the blue river
That comes from You and flows to You
And in the meantime flows within my heart
I thank before Thee.
 
For the loud silence
For the warm sound
For the prevention of bloodshed
For the kind hearts of mankind
Thank You
 
For bringing me out of the bloody darkness
Within my mother's womb
Thank You.
 
For my eye
For my ear
For my crown
For my happiness
Thank You
For the strength and the silence that filled my body
When I started to fly
Thank You.
 
I thank before Thee...

Absolem

Versions: #2
Welcome in the claws of then tentacle
No going back, swallowed by the spectacle
Without compass and without oracle
a difficult debacle unfolds in front of you
 
You lost your legs and your ears
Professors start drilling into your body
You can't manage coming down to the floor anymore
because the room is crooked and time is curved
 
Flee!
....as long as it's still possible
You have one second...whoops, too late
Misjudged,misplanned, missed, squandered, underestimated,
because in 2 minutes your mind will be torn apart
and renewed,
covered in syrup and burst in flames
Your heartbeat just paused
Luckily we replaced it with a beat earlier,
because this evenig we are your true carers
As a sign of our love we are slapping you in the face now
We want to see all of you naked, completely depilated
dipped into milk, mating with zebras
Drink on brotherhood with creatures of every kind
We are bacteria and that's no saying
We are bacteria and that's no saying

The chapter no. zero

The peng birthed itself in the poet intestine of the word whale
It grew over days and years, until it wore fingers on its eyes and ears on its feet
It danced through the bloodstream of the animal, until it reached the border of its heart pumping with might
There it saw the quietly singing bing, that kept the whale alive
It creeped ahead to the animal's eye, took all its courage and excreted itself
as a tear, to merge with the ocean
The ocean was a rough soul and threw him through high waves and
torrential vortexes down into the depths of an immeasurable width
And there, in the blackest black the monster awaited him
It grabbed him with the arms of a kraken, pearled with suction cups
and pulled him into its lap softly
From that day on together they are looking for the author of the chapter no. zero

My homeland

To its air, for its water, for its stone, for the soil of it,
Thousands times my life is able sacrificed even for my only one friend.
Every corner of it is a paradise for me, I get burn by the yearning of it,
My homeland is different a bit (than others)
 
Lay Lay...
 
Anatolia is one side of it, the brave people lives on..,
The lovers write legends on the mountains.
For its sheeps and wolves, for its Yunus and Emrah (are great poets)
All the world has admired to my homeland.
 
Lay Lay...
To its Mecnun and Leyla, its secret is not reachable.
If you need a friend, run toward Mevlana (great philosopher),
You'll feel reborn, you'll go getting wisdom..
So my homeland is different a bit.
 
Lay Lay...
 
Its fearless shepherd sings folk songs with grief ,
Rich or poor, all the people are in love,
I'm consoling my heart, (God)Allah is great so knows the best of,
My homeland is different a bit.

So my homeland is different a bit.

the life's end

there is a place without human intrusion
a place where novels have not taken place
a place where no smile characterizes the lips of the population
a kingdom, created, built, by my true self
Your self-destruct is the only key that fits in
 
I will bribe you to death
I'll cut you to pieces
I will rape you, bitch

Help Me Love

When the long darkness falls in the world
Maybe I'll try to erase this scars that torn apart
Why is our love guilty by the judgement of this world?
Dearest, I'd rather to forsake everything to follow you.
 
If you get lost on the way
I'll run to you
Please don't deny our destiny
Even if things get harder than ever
And everything changes,
We'll still love each other
 
If you get lost on the way
I'll run to you
Please don't deny our destiny
Even if things get harder than ever
And everything changes,
We'll still love each other
 
Even if everything changes,
We'll still love each other

Sadness

Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
The world tells me
'I love you'
Well, it is a lie and
making me a fool
The world want us only
to be good
Well, it is a lie
I tried, too
Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
For the world we live in
thinking of you, I
Try and try
Is there any place without sadness
it looks at me and mocks me and
tells me 'dare you'
it notices my mind
it tells me
'Though the world lies to you,
you must keep staring me
and leave yourself behind.
For now on.'

The Outcasts

[Esmeralda]
I don't know if you can hear me
If so, then it depends
If even a gypsy girl
Can pray to you
 
Yes, I know that I am ostracized
The world despises me
But I see you and feel
Once you were hated like me
 
Help the outcasts
You see into their hearts
No one else feels and
Knows their pain
 
See the outcasts
In the light's shadow
Defend the outcasts
Because else you defend nothing
 
[Quasimodo:]
Help the outcasts
You see into their hearts
No one else feels and
Knows their pain
 
[Religious people:]
I ask for glory
I ask for power
I ask for honour, for prestige and splendour
For the happiness of love
On every path
I ask you, God
To bless my works
 
[Esmeralda:]
I ask for nothing
I manage
But so many others
Are worse than bad
 
Protect my friends
From poverty and derision
We are all
The children of God
 
[Quasimodo:]
Help the outcasts
 
[Esmeralda:]
Defend the outcasts, children of God
 
[Quasimodo:]
Children of God
 
[Esmeralda & Quasimodo:]
Children of God

Esmeralda's prayer

I don't know if you hear me
But I beg for answers
I don't know if you would listen
To the prayer I've got
 
Yes, I know I am too simple
I should be left outside
But when see your glare, I think that
Maybe you hear me after all
 
God, help the people who are in need
Show them your love and give them your support
God, help my people now, the short moment they exist
God, help the forgotten, I think you want that
 
I beg for strength, I beg for answers
I beg for light over the name I've got
Love's prayer is all I ask for
I want God's all angels to watch over me
 
I beg for the others, who are left outside
I beg from my heart and believe that you hear
Help my people, when they're suffering right now
All of us are children here, our father is you
You are the only one who can help the forgotten
 
You are allowed to use my translations, if you just remember to credit me :)

A Moment Before


Again nothing is known
And you are busy
Climbing up to tomorrow
You can't see a way
Although people talk about it
Everyone says
There's a little way to go
Between you and the light
Just take care of your heart
But you are shedding your leaves
And everything around you is gray
 
There is no chance of stopping now
A moment before
It's always a moment before
That everything happens
There is no chance of stopping now
A moment before
It's always a moment before
That everything happens
 
Again nothing is known
And you are busy
Searching for explanations
Why has the smile gone from your face
You believe that everything,
Everything is for the best
And there is a reason that everything has turned off
But there are moments in which
You have to remember that yourself
 
There is no chance of stopping now...
 
There's a little way to go
Between you and the light
Just take care of your heart
But you are shedding your leaves
And everything around you is gray.
There is a little way to go
Between you and the light,
Just take care of your heart.
You see
There at the end there's a horizon, this is the time to remember
 
That there is no chance of stopping now...

Palpal

[Chorus]
The name’s Palpal
With or without pretext, we celebrate
They call me Palpal
The haters force themselves
I swore Palpal
I hear nothing but I can read their lips
And I read Palpal
In two words Palpal
Hey Hey Hey Hey
 
[Verse 1]
An asshole and a good guy in the same body
A “free hugs” sign and a handgun in the
same box
I’ll do all in order to be liked as
A friend, a lover, an idol
Or a grocery store open till five in the morning
I never leave if I am still alive
I’m the winner of the game
I want a world with only mirrors
A radio that only plays my music
You need a savior, but I only wanna please myself
I was already very egocentric
Before I had anything
Doesn’t that tell you to be a bit more stylish?
I’m done speaking about myself (Pal)
 
When the happiness of others builds up
What’s the secret of happy men?
Mother said: 'act with discretion'
But it’s a lot better when others see me
It’s a lot better when others see me
Let me do what I want
 
[Verse 2]
Or instead, I risk doing it illegaly
I haven’t taken my meds
I only say shit and everyone loves it
My hyperactivity only shocks
From the tracksuit with the Chinese signs
It comes from my cells like a disc jockey
I can say “I love you” and “I’m fucking you” in plain language
Influenced by the whole world in my discs
We mix and I see folks who tell me
Insh’Allah, soon we’ll all be mixed
Hey hey hey hey
Follow me if you want to see kind monsters
We don’t have green noses, your kebab isn’t blue
But we’ve hidden a few ‘shrooms
So celebrate with us
Yanks will say “come on, come on”
Only love until death, nirvana within like Cobain
To find this bizarre world, you need a drug
Some have died in the process but
If the leaders of this world smoked this stuff
Wars would cease in two seconds max
BTW, politics can suck my. . .
I’m different from even the guys I hang with
Bet you thought I was like you
You’re obsessed with cash but you’re not Rango**
Don’t give me the same nonsense your parents swallow
You’re fucked up, you get a ride home
Mix pills and whisky, tragic
You’ll end up like Octave Parango
 
[Chorus ]
The name’s Palpal
With or without pretext, we celebrate
They call me Palpal
The haters force themselves
I swore Palpal
I hear nothing but I can read their lips
And I read Palpal
In two words Palpal
Hey Hey Hey Hey
 
[Verse 3]
An asshole and a good guy in the same body
A love letter and a knife in the
same box
I’ll do all I can to be liked, like
The doctor who says you’re HIV negative
A brother or a superhero
If all the smart guys are sad
I prefer to be a happy imbecile
I want a world where everything’s free
Society has made me a hammer
I take note of everything I buy
Since my first McDonald’s
I’d really like to give lessons
But I’m just a simple Toubab
It’s hard to have the fame of 2pac
When you’ve got a pale look
 
[Conclusion]
Ok, Pal knows how to express himself, but he knows the white trash life
This idiot’s proud, sometimes, he screams, at times, he spits
Maybe wealth alone doesn’t make one happy
But trust me, poverty is a river of pain.
I forgot my umbrella
In case it rains dollars

Kalp Şeklinde Yara

Işıkta bir değişim görüyorum
Gecede bir ateş
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Renklerin geri geldiğini görüyorum
Karanlıkta bir açıklık
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Ben asla değişmeyeceğim
Asla istemedim
Duyduklarımıza sağır kaldık
Doğruyu görmeliyiz
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Biliyorum defalarca kez hata yaptım
Ama bebeğim, kör değilim
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Bulacağın şey söylenmiyor
Böyle şeyler her zaman olur
Bensiz daha iyisin
 
Tüm bu yanlışlarla uzun zamandır kör bir şekilde koşuyorduk
Ama çığlıklar çok yüksekti
Onları durduramadık
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara
 
Tüm bildiğimiz bu
Tüm olduğumuz bu
Ve geriye kalan tek şey küçük kalp şeklinde bir yara

Two Hearts

The shortest way between two hearts:
Outstretched to each other and betimes
Touch one another only through fingertips
Two arms.
 
Rushing towards the stairs,
Waiting is the embodiment of time.
Came too early, cannot find you,
It is as if something is being rehearsed.
 
Gathered have and migrating are the birds,
If only I loved you ad hoc.
 
PS: Any piece of constructive criticism will be very appreciated!

Tulips from Amsterdam

When spring arrives I will send you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When spring arrives I will pick for you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When I come back again I will bring you
Tulips from Amsterdam
A thousand yellow ones, a thousand red ones
They wish you the very best
What my mouth can't say (what I can't speak)
Tulips from Amsterdam will say
 
Jan (male name) from the county side said: Antje (female name)
Oh dear child, I like you
How can it be done dear Antje
Tomorrow I go to The Hague
And at the old mill
Under a sky so blue sounded
I love you and you love me
Oh Antje, I'll always be loyal to you
 
When spring arrives I will send you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When spring arrives I will pick for you
Tulips from Amsterdam
When I come back again I will bring you
Tulips from Amsterdam
A thousand yellow ones, a thousand red ones
They wish you the very best
What my mouth can't say (what I can't speak)
Tulips from Amsterdam will say

Valparaíso

He experienced Valparaíso, his heart burdened with a heavy secret.
The world was a brazier Valparaíso pulled him out of.
So many lights and colors and so many ruined beauties
shifted the weights his heart could no longer lift.
On Valparaíso heights, on a clear day,
she watched the cranes loading the hungry bellies of the ships.
She watched life go by or catalogued the colors.
Never disappointed, never jaded, her heat laden like a tanker.
 
In the Cinzano restaurant where they had agreed to meet,
an old lady sang 'Solo tu' while mending her sweater.
There he chatted about anything but the important thing, of course.
Seeing each other was what mattered, and listening to 'Solo tu'
'Solo tu'1
 
He didn't know she knew, and he had little choice but not trying
to confide what he forgot about when he was with her.
One day, just to do like everyone, he talked about love, but too early.
She said 'I know your secret' and he went away without a word.
 
Oh, Valparaíso is so beautiful with its colors, his dilapidations,
this labyrinth where the wind wanders, the woman singing at the Cinzano.
A secret, the city will take it and keep it under its cloak,
and those who uncover it do the same, in Valparaíso.
 
  • 1. 'only you'
Do whatever you want with my translations. I'm not rich enough to sue you anyway.

Frozen Heart

The winter's wind is as cold as ice, and so it's mountains and it's rivers
It has a heart sleazy and grifter, let's dig into it
 
Just one stroke, right in the middle
With the lust for it and with the fear from it
Was the lake shiny and beautiful before?
Split it into two
Break this frozen heart
 
A heart (with feelings), just let it go
Watch out, just let it go
 
Beautiful, really strong, dangerous, cold
The ice is magical and peculiar
Stronger than me, than all of us, than everyone else
 
The winter's wind is as cold as ice, and so it's mountains and it's rivers
It has a heart sleazy and grifter, let's dig into it
 
Just one stroke, right in the middle
With the lust for it and with the fear from it
Were you also shiny and beautiful before?
Split it into two
Turned into a bunch of frozen hearts

Esmeralda's Prayer

Can you hear me, the most gracious?
Tell me are you there?
In your kindness, will you listen
what resides in my heart?
Maybe you think: you pauper,
how dare you speak to me?
I see your face and and I think
that you were a pauper too
 
God, give bread to the paupers every day
To those who are despised, give paradise at least after death
God, give hope to the poor 'cause
If you fail, who will save them?
 
(Choir)
Give me might,
give me fame,
give me appreciation for the rest of my days.
I want love, give me it,
And I want God to save my soul
 
I don't ask for anything, who cares about this?
When there are so many people poorer than me around...
God, give your children hope 'cause
If you fail, who will save them?
Save those who know the bottom of despair...
