A flower facing the wind

While I flutter like a petal
Play a melody that makes my hair wave
The chorus of the wind is so lovely
Being piled up over and over again
You create life
 
A mysterious force encourages me
I always feel like I can move forward
 
A flower facing the wind
Wants to bloom strong and sweet
Your love became the sun
And gave me live
Let me say 'thank you'
Because I'm able to smile
 
Petals fall and become seeds
Life is a bud and eternity is born
An unchangeable emotion is a miracle
A direct emotion
Leads me to you
 
The feeling of believing changed the future
I always felt that something was starting
 
A flower facing the wind
Wants to bloom strong and admirable
Without being clouded nor by the dust
Wants to keep shining
I mutter 'I'm all right'
When I greet the morning
 
A flower facing the wind
Wants to bloom strong and sweet
Your love became water
And gave me live
Let me say 'thank you'
Because I'm able to smile

be like aquamarine

In the air high above the building that reflects the sunset's glow
is the Pacific Blue that survives.
Both you and the city have the same expression.1
I shake by my own sigh.
 
Ah! Two people started to walk different ways.
From this time
When I remember it is heart-breaking as for
The summer's ray of lights made my eyes fired up2
 
Each time, kisses are skillfully,
you hurt your own feelings.
 
With men passing by,
the woman starts to gleam.
This moment, only myself suppresses feelings (at least).
Be like aquamarine
 
Sad... Because I did live by believing only in love,
When I couldn't go home,
I did hide my silver body piercing.
My dreams are the exchange for my wounds left behind.
 
Each time, I kiss the sweet honey,
You betray yourself.
 
If in case the smile of Madonna, 3
Even if you can feel the love coming from a man,
You are the answer that lives.
Be like aquamarine
 
  • 1. 色 can mean colour, expression, character, sensuality, sexiness
  • 2. 熱い(atsui) can mean hot (like temperature), passionate, intense
  • 3. The lyrics mention 聖母 instead of Madonna. 聖母 means holy woman or man.

My Heart is with You

The heart missed, it missed the loved one
My soul that longed for the loved one ached
 
From my heart longing won't leave
My heart ached as it burned with longing
 
You have my heart in you, in you
I have your heart with me, with me
 
If he doesn't miss me, there is no solution
Is there hope for these two hearts (2x)
 
A lonely tree loses another leaf
Weak heart spills its pain
 
From my eyes, that suffer staring at the road
My flawed heart's pain pours out
 
You have my heart in you, in you
I have your heart with me, with me
 
If he doesn't miss me, there is no solution
Is there hope for these two hearts (2x)

If life interests you

I will play the game until the very end
I will work to make all the dough
I want to flash and brag about myself1
I am a sad human of the twenty first century
Don't ask questions, everything's alright
 
Even if I know that everything is going sideway
That half of my salary
Is necessary to merely win the cash
That I need to go to work
I close my eyes, I don't want to think about it
 
I also know that I'm a prisoner
Of a huge cage whose bars are gold
That I live on time I've borrowed
from banks and from credit companies
 
I need my dose, I'm a junkie!
 
If life interests you
You are at the right period
Come and celebrate this Solemn Mass
Do you feel useless?
Consume! We have stuff
to fill up the hole in your servile lives!
 
I live in a world of decadence
That delights itself in abundance
And were people put themselves in a trance
In the face of success and of material goods
We're creating artificial pleasure
 
Society of contradictions
Where rubs shoulder to shoulder bombshell beauties
Stars of hollywood with fake tits
 
And obese with fat asses on the edge of an heart attack
In this hamburger culture
 
And despite the gap becoming wider
Between riches and poverty
Me, I don't feel too concerned
As long as all those stuff
Don't happen in my life
I stick my head in my navel 2
 
If life interests you
You are at the right period
Come and celebrate this Solemn Mass
Do you feel useless?
Consume! We have stuff
to fill up the hole in your servile lives!
 
For the merchants and the sellers
The bullshitting advertisers
My bank account has interests
I'm no longer human, I'm an ATM
 
Supersized stores
Supersized portions for the masses
Capitalism : point of no return
Yes Sir! Here are the States in my backyard3
In my backtard
 
I decided to play the game
I'm in a vicious cycle
Chronically indebted to a system
That is superficial and pernicious
 
A universe where the verb 'to have'
As taken over the verb 'to be'
 
Where all the people make themselves believe
That possession is the only quest
 
Foregone is the times of temples and churches
Those of our civilisation
Are whores to the glory of merchandise
And of the God of Consumption
 
Costco, Wal-shit, oh and Loblaw 4
Life is beautiful Alleluia!
If you don't get hard, there's viagra
And Go bless America!
 
  • 1. Litteraly : break the booze
  • 2. 'To contemplate one's navel' is a french expression meaning : being egocentric. The author of this song mixes this with the expression 'To stick one head in the sand'
  • 3. States = United States
  • 4. Pun on the fact that 'mart' vaguely sounds like a vulgar version of shit(marde) : wal-marde

This dormitory's girls, all of them are noble
We play and rollick
 
In the middle of the abbey, there's a fount

I know an ancient garden of old

I know an ancient garden of old,
there grows silky carpet of grass.
It has a thick gate made of gold
and I dream of one lass.
There lives a beautiful princess,
she is wearing a small crown.
I know how lovely is her dress,
 
so don't be silly and sit down.
 
La la la...
 
In that garden, for that matter, stands a well with a dark grating.
And an old willow tree bend over the water, stares at it's own image, waiting.
By the pond is a small wooden boat, which is ready for the two of us.
So let's play with the melody note, sing after me and don't make a fuss.
 
La la la...

Little girl

[Verse 1]
My love what to do
Give me your hand, I will marry you
It would be time to go
I have reloaded the barrel
My love dry your tears (you know)
I see your bright future
I any case to be honest
You have no other choice the to marry me
The words are just words
The acts can be denied
My love under the bars
This love that you have released
It would be time to let it fly
Stop to hide it
They are not just words
I have filled the suitcase of tickets
 
[Chorus] I'll take you
Little girl, you are blindfolded
I'll take you far away from here, look at me I would know how to love you
Why are you straying, I want your happiness, I want to fulfill you
Under the starry skies, crazy life, how beautiful night
 
[Bridge]
We'll cross the tracks
We'll move forward without getting burned
I'll take all your problems
I'ill be your shield
Do not look back
No, lets forget the past
I'll say this to you, I will not leave you other choice than to love me
 
[Verse 2]
And I see all your pain
When I see in your eyes
My love dry your tears
The life will be more beautiful when there's two of us
Look into my eyes
I would make you my queen
I swear it to God
 
[Chorus] I'll take you
Little girl, you are blindfolded
I'll take you far away from here, look at me I would know how to love you
Why are you straying, I want your happiness, I want to fulfill you
Under the starry skies, crazy life, how beautiful night
 
[Bridge]
We'll cross the tracks
We'll move forward without getting burned
I'll take all your problems
I'ill be your shield
Do not look back
No, lets forget the past
I'll say this to you, I will not leave you other choice than love me
 
[Chorus] I'll take you
Little girl, you are blindfolded
I'll take you far away from here, look at me I would know how to love you
Why are you straying, I want your happiness, I want to fulfill you
Under the starry skies, crazy life, how beautiful night

In the distance

To fly with wind
To those parts where you are
To touch you imperceptibly
Hundreds of kilometers
Between us and
Falling asleep, I want to wake up
From you knocking on my door
I will open and embrace you
Don't leave anymore, don't leave!
 
In the distance with one touch
Up and down
No borders
In the distance one breath
Without you
The distance is unbearable
 
No one will find out
How I waited for you
How weeks draged on slowly
Let a million eyes watch
I will hide my tears behind a smile
I want to repeat everything like the first time so bad
Knock on my door
I will open and
Finally embrace you
Don't leave anymore, don't leave!
 
In the distance with one touch
Up and down
No borders
In the distance one breath
Without you
The distance is unbearable

Today To Me, Tomorrow To You

Sometimes my days pass cheerfully
Sometimes my tears, they go by shedding
Sometimes my days pass with my loved one
Sometimes I rebel against loneliness
 
My days are in flux thusly
World's trouble is unfathomable
If this day is for me, then tomorrow is for you
So, neither laugh nor cry for me
 
Everyone's life is not same
Things passing through my mind, they're not known.
Sometimes I forget old days
Sometimes longing burns my inside suddenly
 
My days are in flux thusly
World's trouble is unfathomable
Sometimes fear haunts my inside suddenly
Sometimes I'm filled with joy, I don't know why
 
If this day is for me, then tomorrow is for you
So, neither laugh nor cry for me

Last Postcard

My friends have seen him
As he travelled all alone
And, alone, he crossed Europe...
 
Washing himself in museum lavatories,
Looking at himself in mirrors...
In the cracked mirrors
Of so many museums in Europe!
 
[Chorus:]
And not very often,
From time to time,
I get a postcard
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...

 
Aaah...
 
My friends have seen him
As he travelled all alone
And walked around, so pale...
 
Down the boulevards in Winter,
Through train stations,
Down desolate streets
Of so many corners in Europe!
 
[Chorus:]
And not very often,
From time to time,
I get a postcard
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...

 
My friends have seen him,
As he travelled all alone
And walked around, astonished...
 
Washing himself in museum lavatories,
Looking at himself in mirrors...
He could walk around,
Die all over the rivers
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...
From Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna...

After the leavers

While the rain sleep
At the edge of the darkness
While the wind is quiet
In the middle of the hell
The stars mourned
After the leavers
 
That migration route
Is full of sorrow
A deep sleep of doomsday
The thing that is remaining

For Tomorrow...

Thank you, I don't care
I'm used to shogging
The kind smile
Above all, it hits my chest
 
A little more
I want to stay like this
The announcement of the last train
Separate us
 
To the busyness of every day
I was about to lose
Gently feel
 
For example, it becomes a piece of white snow
Let's watch over you from the distant sky
Never melt
I'm sure it will come down as many as the number of love
 
Someday by chance
I wish I could meet you
Until then, maybe a cold
Don't get caught, be fine
 
The new season
I'm coming around
My feelings are always
 
For example, it becomes a light red flower
Wrap you with a light scent
Never wither
I'm sure it will bloom in the sunlight of love
 
Feel by your side no matter where you are in the world
I will never forget that gentle voice
 
For example, it becomes a piece of white snow
Let's watch over you from the distant sky
Never melt
I'm sure it will come down as many as the number of love
For example, it becomes a light red flower
Wrap you with a light scent
Never wither
I'm sure it will bloom in the sunlight of love

Insomnia

(In) the street were I can't see anything anymore
Running after the last train,
running desperately, breathless
toward dawn.
An inhumane fear. Why won't you
let go of my hand?
In the city's hotels
I forgot my past.
My memories turn into dust.
Lipstick (on) my pillow.
 
(In) the station I smoke a cigarette.
How odd. Maybe I'll go.
Empty carriages
and nobody looking on the platform.
Sordid rooms back when life
had forgot about me.
My eyes stabbed by electric
lights, I fall asleep
and startle
my remorse awake.
In a lit room
I left nothing but
this big crumpled bed.
 
Allow me
another face
Allow me, allow me
to catch a reflection in the mirror.
Allow me another mirage1
Allow me to fall asleep
on the tracks of the past.
 
Oh memories, allow me to dream
Oh memories
 
Allow me another face
Allow me, allow me
to catch a reflection in the mirror.
Allow me another mirage.
Allow me to fall asleep
on the tracks of the past.

Signorina, signorina

You made yourself up, signorina,
from evening to morning,
you made yourself prettier and you don't know it.
 
You made yourself up, signorina,
without even noticing
you have already conquered the whole city.
 
Open your eyes, signorina,
for love is approaching
but if you make a mistake, signorina, it goes away.
 
With a kiss you can dream,
with a kiss you can suffer.
Be careful, signorina, what you do.
 
You will read the book of love tomorrow
and you will fall in love and you will fall in love
but the book, signorina, is a mystery you don't know.
Be careful—beware of love.

Children On Their Birthdays

This frightening, frightening world
I pretend, I pretend, not to see you
I await it, I await it, this destiny
I want to use it to my advantage
 
Right next to a charming second hand store
At a small bus stop in the rain
What am I thinking of?
 
Form a circle, with points and lines, form a circle
Ahh, isn't it beautiful, your voice
 
Upon seeing an entrepreneur, everyone makes way
People who sleep outside the train station, people who don't
It falls apart, it falls apart, this destiny
I don't want to resent it
 
Finishing off selling cashmare goods,
Lining up the dollar umbrellas
Who am I waiting for?
 
Form a circle, with points and lines, form a circle
Ahh, isn't it beautiful, your voice
 
Right next to a charming second hand store
At a small bus stop in the rain
What am I thinking of?
 
Form a circle, with points and lines, form a circle
Ahh, isn't it beautiful, your voice
 
Points and lines, a circle, points and lines, a circle
Points and lines, a circle, a circle, a circle
Points and lines, a circle, points and lines, a circle
Points and lines, a circle, a circle, a circle

Give and I give you

Don't take me for a child
A butterfly that can be hunted in the spring
A doll crunched with the tips of her teeth
In this game you know there would be two losers
Yes two losers
Don't smile when I say that
Even in give-and-take love, it's the law
The musician is nothing without the piano
But the keys without the fingers will never sing
 
Refrain
Come don't wait
Give, give, give
And my heat will become your sun
Give, give, give
A reason to exist in our lives
Give and I give you
Mornings surrounded by sleepless nights
Give and I give myself
As a land offers itself to the rain
 
You take love for pleasure
I know you when you do everything yes everything to seduce
I'm here and I want you
Without cheating and without lying so open your arms to me
 
Refrain
Come don't wait
Give, give, give
And my heat will become your sun
Give, give, give
A reason to exist in our lives
Give and I give you
Mornings surrounded by sleepless nights
Give and I give myself
As a land can offer itself to the rain
 
Give, give, give
And my heat will become your sun
Give, give, give
A reason to exist in our lives
Give, give, give ...

I Don't Love Istanbul Anymore

I don't love Istanbul anymore
My love had begun there, our farewell had happened there
Our hands became together and we left us in there
I don't love Istanbul anymore
 
I met you and loved you there
Because I came to you with a thousand hopes there
And I saw your treason to our love there
I don't love Istanbul anymore

The last sob

I love you so much
And I will always love you
If I have a thousand hearts
I will give all of them to you
One day if we close our eyes
The last sob
Will come us together in the skies
If the dark destiny
Grudge our love to each other
God won't apart us in afterlife
One day if we close our eyes
The last sob
Will come us together in the skies

Green Cyprus

Green Island is ours,
We won't give it to others.
We persevere with this way,
Even if our blood turns into flood.
 
We believed in destiny,
And in death when we born.
You're worth one and a thousand dreams
Thou Green Island.
 
Green Cyprus, dear Cyprus,
We persevere with not give it!
Green Cyprus, dear Cyprus,
We persevere with not give it!

I'm Not Coming Back

It's lost its meaning for me, to keep searching
For the piece that was left misplaced
Because I know if I find it, I won't be able to keep quiet
And you'll know that I'm afraid of feeling whole.
 
If I find out I don't feel
That passion abandoned me
I never knew how to use reason
I'm a passing attraction
Tomorrow they'll forget me
And the story will go on...
 
Give me a moment, give me a spot
I know that if I go, I go, I go, I go
I'm not coming back
Give me a feeling, make me special
I know that if I go, I go, I go, I go
I'm not coming back
And maybe you'll remember.
 
They say the life of a man who has company
Is remembered more than the man who is solitary.
 
But if I stop feeling lost
And happiness arrives
I know I couldn't stand it
Only geniuses remain
Tomorrow you'll forget me
And the story will go on...
 
Give me a moment, give me a spot
I know that if I go, I go, I go, I go
I'm not coming back
Give me a feeling, make me special
I know that if I go, I go, I go, I go
I'm not coming back
I know that if I go, I go, I go, I go
I'm not coming back
And maybe you'll remember.

The Good Times

Let it last, let it last
Let the good times last
 
Don't take it personally
After autumn there's spring
If there's a storm it's not so bad
And forget about your problems
 
It feels hot
Unstoppable, the hot coals
Pretty chilly and something on your mind
You want it and you better not put up with it
I always carry, carry the key
I always lock up all your misfortunes
Someday soon, I don't know and you don't know
I'm free and I like it, I like it
 
Nobody can take away my good times
Here anything can happen
I bring everything you need
This has got to last
 
Don't take it personally
After autumn there's spring
If there's a storm it's not so bad
And forget about your problems
 
It feels hot
Unstoppable, the hot coals
Pretty chilly and something on your mind
You want it and you better not put up with it
I always carry, carry the key
I always lock up all your misfortunes
Someday soon, I don't know and you don't know
I'm free and I like it, I like it
 
Nobody can take away my good times
Here anything can happen
I bring everything you need
This has got to last
 
May the good times last for us
Oh my love, 'cause I don't know how to dance
Let this morning last for us
Oh let it last, let it last for us
 
Nobody can take away your good times
Here anything can happen
I bring everything you need
This has got to last
 
Let it last, let it last
Let the good times last
Let it last, let it last
Let our good times last

To Home (Bring Him Home)

Listen, my Lord
I hope you listen to my prayer
(He) is young and afraid
A weary youth
 
To home
To home
To home
 
If you gave me a son
Here, a young son
The summer passes and time
flows like an arrow
I am also getting old and (will) disappear
 
With peace, with joy
(He) will live, (he) is still a young boy
(You) gave and took (him) away
Let him go
 
I (will) die
Kill me
(Bring) the boy home
to home
to home

Only For You

I still remember the sound of the rain out there
And how I wanted to for us to work it out
But the grudge held on and I went away
You didn't even know what I would say
 
And it was in that instant in which it hurt most
Thinking that I'd never come back
 
I said, but you didn't listen
That I didn't come to lose you
That I didn't come to believe that I can see you without me,
It can't be
 
I didn't come to know
That my faith is weak
I came here with the force of love
Only for you
 
I went along the long road without respite
And when I wanted to go back to you
I became clueless, I got hurried
In the rain, in the sunset light
 
You're distant and always waiting
For the moment in which I'd come back
 
I said, but you didn't listen
That I didn't come to lose you
That I didn't come to believe that I can see you without me,
It can't be
 
I didn't come to know
That my faith is weak
I came here with the force of love
 
Let this moment stay
It wasn't any mistake
But it must be left behind
We lost our fear and we know why
 
That I didn't come to believe that I can see you without me,
It can't be
I didn't come to know
That my faith is weak
I came here with the force of love
I came here with the force of love
 
Only for you
Only for you

Smile More Often

The sun is rising and begins a day of wonder,
Where do I get all my luck?
A new morning, a new miracle,
once again, fortune awaits me.
 
Life is smiling, as if happy to see me,
I'm the happiest person on Earth.
The sun will rise again, I await more wonder
as I smile in my sleep.
 
Occasionally sorrow visits me,
I feel a bit blue but then I smile.
When life is tough, when life is sad,
I laugh to spite it all.
 
You can't hide from sorrow, you can't forget the worries,
But you can't not love this world.
A lovely day will come and I will say hello again,
Hello, hello my lovely world.
 
I am lucky because I know the secret,
I smile as I watch the sunset.
So smile more and you'll be lucky,
Fortune will smile right back at you!
 
So smile more often and you'll be lucky,
Fortune will smile right back at you!

Berlin Angel

Love that follows the manual is one way traffic
A lost kitten cries out 'meow'
The Berlin Wall was destroyed
And the phone rang, ring ring ring
 
My head and body fades transparent
Because your voice is so far
 
I should be able to become an angel someday, so..
 
Reactions are fiction
I don't get any response at all
A lost kitten is somehow...
Give me a fairy-tale kiss
When the spell is broken, bye bye bye
 
Disappearing like the emperor's new clothes
Your voice pierces in
 
I should be able to become an angel someday, so..
 
Mirror the mirror, Mr. Mirror,
I want to become an angel someday
I want to become an angel someday
I wonder if I can
 
My head and body fades transparent
Because your voice is so far

Career song

Standing up, leaving, working and going to sleep,
Your day has been like this for years
Cleaning the flat, feeding the kids, getting on well with other mothers,
Sometimes the strain eats you up
And from time to time the whole crap overruns you
And then you venture to
Sit down for ten minutes, let the others having the strain,
Because you need a short break once.
 
And exactly then your boss arrives
And he is completely nuts anyway
And when he sees you sitting like this
He sackes you immedeately
 
And now you're sitting there in front of the broo
And you think about an ocean
It was the plan from the beginning
Just to drive out with a sailing barge
 
The whole childhood sitting around and eating the shit,
They have told you about youself.
To turn you into a drudge and so many good things
You rather havn't done because of this.
And you didn't gave a shit about the whole learning
What had it to with your life?
But you've followed through with this and you're now well-educated
And you should go to work.
 
And everything for a piece of paper,
And now you have it in your hand,
The real life is here now
It hangs tidy in the cabinet now.
 
And now you're sitting in the lecture hall
And a tear runs mute
And secretly down your cheek
And the thoughts begin again
After the A Levels you wanted to go with the truck
To Peru or Tibet
Still three years and then it begins
The uni lasts not so long
 
And now you're sitting there in the retirement home
And wants rather being a bit younger
Now you're out and thats because
That they can't exploit you anymore.
The life goes by so fast
Your warnings fade away in the wind
No one listens, and indeed cause
The youth has just no time.

Auchma

It's like going from one meeting to another and letting it hit
Rupturing it without hurting
 
It's like going into a fire just to melt
Unintentionally turn yourself in

Mr. Tambourine Man

Hey, Mister Tambourine Man,
don't you remember me?
Please don't act
like I'm a stranger.
Hey, Mister Tambourine Man,
is it so hard for you?
You, I know,
all this was a long time ago.
 
These days, I still think back often
to the time when San Francisco was our Mecca,
when I wore flowers in my hair
and wasn't even sixteen,
because back then is when life began for me.
 
We wanted love for the world
and hung our hearts
on the songs of Joan Baez,
of Bob Dylan and The Byrds.
That gave us a lot.
 
Hey, Mister Tambourine Man,
don't you remember me?
Please don't act
like I'm a stranger.
Hey, Mister Tambourine Man,
is it so hard for you?
You, I know,
all this was a long time ago.

Hero's Tango

'Once, I mistook an ocean for a lake' he recited the poem
In the depths of that mystery he spent his whole life
Under a dark ocean, in the shadows he wanders
Searching for a way back into the light to his loved one
 
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders, like a promise, always would be
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moment of rest in death is given
Already called back again
 
Time breaks into eternity, a gunshot echoes
There’s never a happy end for him
This story has been told so many times before
The hero has a thousand faces and a hopeless path
 
Alone, the hero continues his journey into the night
That burden on his shoulders, like a promise, always would be
In this game this fool is struck down again and again
Only a moment of rest in death is given
Already called back again

The age of youth

Versions: #1
You tell me 'I love you', 'I love you', every other instant [all the time]
I'm telling you something, and it is not because I don't believe you, not because I don't believe you
But real love, my love can be known only [by going] through life
If you love me like I love you, come and search for me
Come and search for me where life shines the most, because there I am
 
From my heart like a spring
Only joy, only joy flows
Our heart beats at the heart of the motherland
Every heartbeat, beautiful like a song
'Twenty years old', how [beautiful] this word sounds
Oh how many dreams it awakes within us
 
This white [pure] age, the age of youth
It blossoms its days within the bosom of happiness
And even if I really was not twenty years old
This life would make me feel so
Happiness smiles at us, at this land's every corner
When we say 'youth' we have also said 'happiness'
 
Tak-tak-tak, my heart is beating, lightly it talks to me
I'm twenty tears old, today I come out [emerge/sprout] into the life*,
It [she**] is calling me
A new light to light in its [her] eye
A new song to awaken in its [her] bosom
 
If you love me like I love you, come and search for me
Come and search for me where life shines the most, because there I am
From my heart like a spring
Only happiness, only happiness flows
 
Our heart beats at the heart of the motherland
Every heartbeat, beautiful like a song
'Twenty years old', how [beautiful] this word sounds
Oh how many dreams it awakes within us
 
This white [beautiful] age, the age of youth
It blossoms its days within the bosom of happiness
And even if I really wasn't twenty years old
This life would make me feel so
Happiness smiles at us, at this land's every corner
When we say 'youth' we also say 'happiness'
 
Happiness smiles at us, at this land's every corner
When we say 'youth' we also say 'happiness'
 
Like the morning dew
Our dreams full of light
Everywhere where people are
They come into life with love
