Michel Cloup Duo - Le cercle parfait Лирицс транслатион то енглисх
The Perfect Circle
We drew a circle in the middle of the town
In the middle of the map
We went out and we walked
All day and all night
We drew a circle and came back
to all the places where we've lived
And this journey seemed as long and intense to me
As the fraction of my small existence
I have to say, these past months
It's like I have a weight
That slows down
The pace of my footsteps a bit
To the end of the route
To the end of the perfect circle (x2)
We hung around like we used to
With no real goal, following a specific path
We went straight on without losing our itinerary
You held onto my arm several times
We rediscovered these streets, these neighbourhoods
That represented periods, years
We revisited
What had belonged to us
Examining what had been changed
We were moved at first
Then as the hours and places went by
We realised
We had become strangers
To the end of the route
To the end of the perfect circle
You said: Let's keep going that way
When the sun started to break through the clouds
And burn my neck
We arrived at the end of the route
At the end of the perfect circle
You said: It's here
We sat down
I was exhausted, I didn't think
I looked around me
I said: Yes
I rested my head on your shoulder
We sat down
And I didn't feel anything
But relief, calm
I have to say, these past months
It's like I have a weight
That slows down
The pace of my footsteps a bit
We sat down
I fell asleep
Against you
To the end of the route
To the end of the perfect circle
We sat down
I fell asleep
Against you

Our World is Beautiful (Villagers' Reprise)
From the highest point in the sky (To the end of the mines)
Where is the spark? (That illuminates us)
What did it look like?
If only we knew
If only this kingdom
Would become beautiful again

Rain
Struggled, waiting for sun
The city tired of rains
You slept, crying, swallowing blood
When the dawn was seen on the horizon
I never complaint about fate
Even if it turned my morning into evening
With this evening, it brought
My heart that was left away
Little by little, it rained
My heart shattered into little pieces
When it became morning againi
'Do you love me?' - I asked
You never asked for anything
You admired my eyebrows and eyes a thousand times
Stroking your black hair,
I lost myself this night
Struggled, waiting for sun
The city tired of rains
Where do you go, swallowing blood?
Where would the dawn lead me?

Sawah Lettuces
Sawah lettuces spread out all over the ricefields
Sawah lettuces spread out all over the ricefields
The boy's mother came by to pick some sawah lettuce
The boy's mother came by to pick some sawah lettuce
Without looking, she grabbed a bunch and left
The sawah lettuces has now been brought back home
In the morning, the sawah lettuces are sold at the market
In the morning, the sawah lettuces are sold at the market
Laid out in rows, all tied up as well to be sold
Laid out in rows, all tied up as well to be sold
The girl's mother bought some while carrying a woven basket
The sawah lettuces are now ready to be cooked
Sawah lettuces are placed in a pot of boiling water
Sawah lettuces are placed in a pot of boiling water
Half-cooked, it's then strained to be eaten as a side dish
Half-cooked, it's then strained to be eaten as a side dish
With two plates of rice and nasnaran, sitting on a divan
The sawah lettuce is eaten with rice

The Little Bunch of Rushes
O maiden of the finest rushes
What a pity for you that my bundle has come undone
Would you come with me, just the two of us
Under the bank of the wood with the brightest flowers
No priest would ever hear of it
Nor any living soul
Until the birds start to talk in human language
And the blackbird starts speaking Greek.
I’ve no stockings nor shoes
Not even a stool to sit down on
I haven't a penny in the whole wide world
Unless Jesus Christ should take pity on me
My trousers are threadbare
And as you know, my blanket is worn out
Yet still there are plenty of women in the taverns
Who chase after me just for the price of a drink
Oh, did you think to entice me, young man
With your flattery? Well, it did you no good
There’s many a sensible girl
Carrying a load who has been led astray
But I myself would rather carry heavy loads
And drag them till the day I die
Than have your child on my knee
Asking for news of you when you're nowhere to be found
