Elinor

Elinor was
Just fourteen and three hours old
When she started working.
These things always stay
Registered in one's blood forever more.
 
She was still wearing braids
And she'd say: 'yes, sir' and 'good afternoon'.
People loved her,
Sweetest Elinor...
And she would sing while
She would move the broom around.
 
However, all those years in the factory
Blend into colourless
Greyness of the windows.
And after a while, Elinor wouldn't have known
How to say from where
This need to weep had come,
Nor that uncontrollable
Feeling of loneliness.
 
Women would say that what was happening to her
Was that she was growing older and those ills
Could be healed by getting married and having children.
Elinor, following the very wise
Prediction of those women,
Grew up, got married and has children.
 
Her eldest, who was a girl,
Had just turned fourteen
Exactly three hours ago
When she started working.
She was still wearing braids
And she'd say: 'yes, sir' and 'good afternoon'...

Speak to Him





You're a friend and I know it,
I trust you and therefore
if I ask you a favor,
you shouldn't say no,
you mustn't say no to me.
 

Then speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Yes, I know you're sorry,
but it's your fault that he
this evening
didn't show up with me
and you already understood why.
 

And so speak to him,
make peace between us
and don't tell me,
don't tell me that you can't.
 

Oh, speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Whoa, whoa, whoa, speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him!

Tonight You'll Hear a Song





Tonight you'll hear a song,
a song you already know.
The woman you no longer love will sing it,
the woman who will leave you but who won't cry.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will stay with you throughout your life,
a song be will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

Tonight I'll relive for the last time
these moments that I'll no longer find
but when I disappear and only you are found,
you'll cry because you'll remember.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.

A Reflection in the Water





It was
a moonlit evening,
under the bridge the river slept
and a woman sang.
 

Clear,
the water slipped away
and the image of your smile
the river mirrored.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing remained,
but I inside my mind
still see you.
 

It was
a moonlit evening,
your voice spoke
and the river silently listened.
 

And it was,
almost a year has passed
but every evening I return to look
into the river to dream.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.

A Family





Evening will come,
you'll return home
and without a word, you'll sit at the table
in your place as always.
 

Then when you have finished,
you'll tell us kids:
leave me alone and glue your eyes
for an hour on the newspaper.
 

But read inside the eyes
of mom what is there.
Notice that she wants
to talk a bit with you.
 

You cannot call life
this life you give her
if you have nothing left
to share with her.
 

I know that you are not wicked,
that deep down you love her.
Don't make her pay for the usual bitterness that
life gives you.
 

You think about your hopes
of a long time ago
starting when you wanted
to become who knows who.
 

But look that you are
someone at least among us,
you're not mistaken,
life is precisely this here.
 

When you come home,
bring a smile with you,
then we'll talk together, that way we'll become
at last a family,
a true family,
a true family.
