Tournedos

From here, from my home
I see the empty beach
I was already there, a few days ago
Now, it's full of rain
 
And you over there continue without an umbrella
Without your clothes, going for a walk
Like an afternoon in July
But with cold and thunder
 
How can one know what you hope for?
That I watch you and dry you?
That I see you and that I stay taking the moon together
 
The moon, you and me expectedly
When any comet passes or a flying saucer comes down
 
And the beach crys and crys
And from my house I yell
That although I think of hugging you
That although I think of going with you
 
The doctor recommends
That I don't take off my coat
That I don't go any farther with you anymore
 
And I can not refuse, well
The type I am myself
I studied while you would sleep
And still I review the lessons
One after another, every day
I can not advise you
Now it is very hard that I burden it
Let us have some space
And say good bye to each other
 
Although you continue yearning
For something that was not true
They say it in the bars
It is something you carry inside
That you did not let them love you
You only want them to hug you
And you say that I did not have
Even courage to stay
I ripped all of your photos
You will not stop calling me
 
Who does not have the courage to leave?
Who does not have the courage to leave?
Who does not have the courage to leave?
Who prefers to stay and endure?
 
Leave and endure

Even when you speak lies
I pretend to believe you
I don't care what you tell me
I just don't mind, if I can love you
 
Its because you say you're leaving and leave me
But in the end you always turn around
And that's the way I have to endure
ay ay ay
 
Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang
Always coming back after you're lost
Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang

Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang
Always coming back after you're lost
Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang

Hey babe, sometimes I lose you
And then you come back, I don't get you...
Night arrives, you knock on my door
And I always answer, its always open for you
 
Its because you say
You're leaving, and leave
But in the end
You always turn around
 
Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang
Always coming back after you're lost
Your love its a boomerang
You leave, always to come back
Your love its a boomerang

Question marks and answers

You watch while lying on the beach
As I, in the blue water of the sea
Get scared from the too large freedom
 
You say that you don't understand
Why is it good here, in the deep
And I only reluctantly swim back to you
 
I only reluctantly swim back to you
You are the law and I'm rebelling
You are the question marks and I'm the answers
I undulate even in a windfall
But while I'm speaking, you're only hearing yourself
You aren't interested anymore in what I have to say
 
I don't know what I'm waiting for
When on the blue-white sunbed
I'm watching that you have stopped watching me a long time ago
 
We're waiting for the fire to be put out
But still, we feel cold
And now I only reluctantly swim back to you
 
I only reluctantly swim back to you
You are the law and I'm rebelling
You are the question marks and I'm the answers
I undulate even in a windfall
But while I'm speaking, you're only hearing yourself
You aren't interested anymore in what I have to say
 
You are the law and I'm rebelling
You are the question marks and I'm the answers
I undulate even in a windfall
But while I'm speaking, you're only hearing yourself
You aren't interested anymore in what I have to say
 
You are the law and I'm rebelling
You are the question marks and I'm the answers
I undulate even in a windfall
But while I'm speaking, you're only hearing yourself
You aren't interested anymore in what I have to say
 

May we have enough life

May we have enough life,
May we have enough will,
May the world come to its senses,
May children not suffer
May the masks disappear from our faces,
May people wake up,
May the system not hurt us,
May we have enough strength
 
By itself nothing will happen,
By itself nothing will ever come,
By itself emptiness only weighs
By itself only creates the guilty
We will form a procession great
We will form in the shape of a heart
Falsehood and fears flow away
So that evil will not take place
 
May we have enough life,
May we have enough will,
May the world come to its senses,
May children not suffer
May the masks disappear from our faces,
May people wake up,
May the system not hurt us,
May we have enough strength
 
We have much to do,
We have ourselves without divisions,
We have hearts to change the course
Of history for the Poles
For Poles, for nations,
For humanity and for the world
For freedom without exception
It is time for the rag to fall down
 
May we have enough life,
May we have enough will,
May the world come to its senses,
May children not suffer
May the masks disappear from our faces,
May people wake up,
May the system not hurt us,
May we have enough strength
 

Raspberry tree

Versions:
Chorus:
Kalinka, kalinka, kalinka of mine!
In the garden there is a berry-little raspberry, raspberry of mine!
 
Ah, under the pine, the green one,
Lay me down to sleep!
Oh-swing, sway, oh-swing, sway,
Lay me down to sleep!
 
Chorus:
Kalinka, kalinka, kalinka of mine!
In the garden there is a berry-little raspberry, raspberry of mine!
 
Ah, little pine, little green one
Don’t rustle above me!
Ay-lyuli, lyuli, ay-lyuli, lyuli,
Don’t rustle above me!
 
Chorus :
Kalinka, kalinka, kalinka of mine!
In the garden there is a berry-little raspberry, raspberry of mine!
 
Ah, you beauty, pretty maiden,
Fall in love with me!
Oh-swing, sway, oh-swing, sway,
Fall in love with me!
 
Chorus:
Kalinka, kalinka, kalinka of mine!
In the garden there is a berry-little raspberry, raspberry of mine!
 

Hey, the Sich is marching on (pretty poppies are blooming)

Hey, the Sich is marching on,
Pretty poppies are blooming,
Some frown upon our cause –
But for us it's holy!
 
Hey, the Sich is marching on,
Our axes chime,
Some like to stay in the dark,
We prefer daylight!
 
Hey, the Sich is marching on
Buzzing like a bee,
Allied in arms, allied at heart –
So we'll be just fine!
 
Hey, the Sich is marching on
And the horseshoes clank,
Our home bends to our will,
And never – to intruders!
 

Forgetting you again

The hundreds of stairs to heaven
Leave behind a new rain -
There are gardens of paradise and lost trails there,
Only you're not waiting for me.
 
Light spills out after the rain,
Following the night is another dawn,
All the usual things, reflected in mirrors
There, where we aren't.
 
I'm forgetting you again.
The last day of summer slips away.
I'll never know,
Somewhere out in the crowd,
How he hugs you,
What you'll call your children,
How he'll write poems about her.
Night's falling, it's getting darker.
 
Sometimes I meander along
The alleys of our days,
There, where my soul sleeps,
And a barely-breathing memory
Sketches us together.
 
And it's long been easy
To see off those days.
Other voices are there now

A Flower

Perhaps you've seen - in shady wood,
Amidst a youthful, springtime mead
A flower - simple, humble, good?
(Alone in distant lands you tread.)
 
Awaiting you - in dewy fields
Alone it bloomed, flowered, grew...
And now its purest scent it yields,
The scents of spring it's saved for you.
 
The fragile stem you rip from earth.
And gently place it on your shirt
And you admire, with growing mirth,
The flower, which you've badly hurt.
 
You walk along a dusty path

For what should we attempt to speak?...

...For what should we attempt to speak?
A soul, where love and dreams abound,
To grasp a human heart we seek -
With what? Alas, by words we're bound!
 
If only in the words of man,
Not every term was so banal!
Don't ever think - their meanings can
Be found - they're lost, and not recalled!
 
And who will listen to our tales?
With even most sincere desire,
A man without exception fails
To grasp another's pain entire!
 

Northern Lights

Versions:
It was cold outside, I was so in love
There were three of us
We weren't alone
He was so handsome, compared to me
But I was strong, simply held on
Knowing you didn't see
How I far I was gone
Or something could be wrong with me
You were in love, stupidly absorbed
That's what love will do
You didn't know, how much I love you
That's what love will do
That's what love will do
Shivering, but not from me
Though I was there, you didn't see
I cursed when all my flowers flew
It was Monday and I already knew
That you never did see
How much I love you
Or something could be wrong with me
You were in love, stupidly absorbed
That's what love will do
Or something could be wrong with me
That's what love will do
I was in love, but
You didn't notice me.
 

Youth

Youth, you hurt us
What are you dissatisfied with?
Sometimes I miss you so much
In the cold you will cover with a blanket
Youth, you hurt us
What are you dissatisfied with?
Sometimes I miss you so much
In the cold you will cover with a blanket
 
People get poisoned, people change like that
But people fall in love, lost, like, in a movie
Everyone was the best, everyone seemed simple
It is sad, but sometimes they leave us young
We are so temporary, but so confident
We believe in ourselves and we move forward on purpose
It happens, this life throws down back
We fly these doors with tears
 
Youth, you hurt us
What are you dissatisfied with?
Sometimes I miss you so much
In the cold you will cover with a blanket
Youth, you hurt us

Young night, young we, young our thoughts
We fly to where, the lights are burning, burning our lives
Take me, take us all, to where eternity is
Youth, you are my infinity
We are so temporary, but so confident
We believe in ourselves and we move forward on purpose
It happens, this life throws down back
We fly these doors with tears
 
Youth, you hurt us
What are you dissatisfied with?

Modern Vampires

Vampires
Dressed in black
Covering the streets
With bat wings
Huge canines
That attack when it's night
As you sleep
These no longer exist
 
Those that do exist
Are modern vampires
Trending vampires
Royal vampires
 
Have you ever noticed that the happier you are
The more you bother others?
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
The more you bother others
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
They put you in their wheel
 
Vampires
Who got red eyes
With a shadowy figure
That you can't see in the mirror
That we kill
With a silver bullet
With the point of a stake
No, no
These no longer exist
 
Those that do exist
Are modern vampires
Trending vampires
Royal vampires
 
Have you ever noticed that the happier you are
The more you bother others?
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
The more you bother others
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
They put you in their wheel
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
The more you bother others
It ain't easy! It ain't easy!
They put you in their wheel
 

Another Mouth

Here I am trying to fool myself in this room
With another skin and another body that I just finished meeting
Ay here I am in a strange bed paying my mistake
Well I confess to you that I
 
I am kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
I am kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
 
Tell me what I have to do
I do what you ask me
Tell me what I have to do
If this way you come back to my life
Here I am trying to fool my poor heart
It's that I know you are the one that quenches my thirst
Ay here I am in this strange skin paying my mistake
Well I confess to you that I
 
I am kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
I am kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
Forgive me and don't be bad
 
Baby I don't want to be with another
I want to be with you
Mami I can't tell
That I'm sorry
I don't want to be with another
I want to be with you
Baby I can't tell
That I'm sorry
 
I'm kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
I'm kissing another mouth
But yours is the one that matters to me
Forgive me and don't be bad
 

Komsomol marching song

Trumpeters sounded the alarm.
Equipped with everything for the battle in the proper way,
The Komsomol consolidated battalion
Was going on a long journey.
 
Goodbye, my mother, don't grieve,
Kiss your son in farewell

I believed in her love

I believed that her love
Would shine my life in gold
Why did she have to
Bring back the old pain again
 
Chorus.
 
She gave her love to someone else
And I'll remember it, I know she's making a mistake
That she left something
To the empty heart, to comfort herself
That she left something
To the empty heart, to comfort herself
 
I believed in her love
She was my entire world
But just a moment was enough for her
To destroy my dreams
 
Chorus.
 
She gave her love to someone else
And I'll remember it, I know she's making a mistake
That she left something
To the empty heart, to comfort herself
That she left something
To the empty heart, to comfort herself
 

You got too much

You should see
You should hear
You, jester, should smell
You should know
You should dig
You should understand
 
You got got got got too much again
And you got got got got even me
And you got got got got something evil
And you got got got got more
 
You should ponder
You should bow
You, jester, should think
You should forbid
You should turn
You should object
 
You got got got got too much again
And you got got got got even me
And you got got got got something evil
And you got got got got more
 
You should change
You should steal
You, jester, should fry
 
You should be moved
You should be removed
You should be driven
 
You got too much again...
 

Lugano, adio

Pantofii de tenis alb-albaștri,
Sâni grei și buze roșii,
și hanoracul.
Oh, Marta, eu așa mi te amintesc:
Surâsul tău, pletele tale
nemișcate precum lacul.
 
”Lugano, adio!”, tu cântai
în timp ce de mână mă țineai.
”Cântă cu mine!”, tu mi-ai spus,
și eu am cântat
despre un loc pe care
nu l-am văzut vreodată.
 
Tu, tu îmi vorbeai de frontiere,
de finanțatori și contrabandă.
Mă încălzeam cu poveștile tale,
și ”tatăl meu, da”, tu mi-ai spus,
”în munți s-a luptat, aici sus”.
Apoi despre al meu m-ai întrebat.
 
Și mă gândeam la casa mea,
la tatăl meu nemișcat pe plajă,
năvoadele la soare,
pescadoarele în largul mării,
scoici și stele,
înjurăturile și durerea lui.
 
Oh, Marta, eu așa mi te amintesc:
surâsul tău, pletele tale
nemișcate precum lacul.
 
”Lugano, adio!”, tu cântai
în timp ce de mână mă țineai.
”Adio!”, tu cântai,
și nu falsă naivitate,
tu credeai.
Și acum cred și eu, care sunt aici.
 
Oh, Marta mea, adio, eu așa mi te amintesc:
surâsul tău, pletele tale
nemișcate precum lacul.
 

Sivan

When you will grow up and become a woman
with experience gained along the way1
perhaps there is a chance that you will remember me
we had beautiful times together
 
We met at a party, you were wonderful
flowing hair and innocent eyes
i approached, you said: not tonight
love you between the lines
 
If you remember me Sivan
perhaps you will give me some time
now that you are far away from here
 
we separated with hopes that you would return
a year passed, i did not hear from you
you left me a picture of a framed smile
perhaps mine is left also with you
 
If you remember me Sivan...

Ivan, Boris and I

And since we were kids I remember that
We were going for walks
Along the rivers in the middle of flowers
We were singing songs
Under a completely golden sun
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
 
Then at the party in my town
We were dancing all day
We never got tired
And at school on Monday
We were still together
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
 
We were four women, but
There were three guys
I loved him
And another was in love with me
It couldn't work like this
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
 
All of this complicated
The sweetness of those days a bit
Then a few years passed
And school ended
And love separated us
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
 
We never got married to our friends
Because happiness
Was found here and there
We all still write to each other
But many, many more
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I
Antonio, Ivan, Boris and I
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna and I

They don't let me love you

I'm pouring my eyes out tonight
Like a little child
What did i do to anyone
For them to take a revenge on me
 
Chorus 2x
They don'y let me love you
To kiss where your foot steps
I don't need this life
If i loose you
 
Tonight i'm searching only for you
Talking to myself
What did i do to anyone
Not to be with you
 
Chorus 2x
They don'y let me love you
To kiss where your foot steps
I don't need this life
If i loose you
 
Tonight i'm cursing my enemies
With the pain of my soul
What did i do to anyone
For them to crush my dreams
 
Chorus 2x
They don'y let me love you
To kiss where your foot steps
I don't need this life
If i loose you
 

Love me, Delilah

Totally
I'm totally mad
I'm mad
about your every gesture, and even
mad
despite all
the taboos,
to the very end
I do love you.
 
Nothing
You know nothing1
about the hidden secrets and the ties
of this endless love.
 
Love me, Delilah
Love me, Delilah
since my life
withers far away from yours
what do I care for a fate
that carries me away from yours?
 
You know how to say anything,
destroy anything
with a mere smile
you put me in chains.
You know how to lie,
and even worse,
curse me
with your hate.
 
Nothing
you can do nothing
against this very love
that drives me toward you
 
Love me, Delilah
Love me, Delilah
Give me
the strength of a lawless love,
and despite all evidence
give us another chance
 
Nothing
you know nothing
of what keeps me
in the garden of your loins
 
Love me, Delilah
Love me, Delilah
And with a scream
at the end of the night
in the hollow of your body
I want to sign
with love and its remorse
 
Mad
I am mad
Despite everything
love me, Delilah

Ivan, Boris și eu

Și, când eram copii, îmi amintesc că
mergeam să ne plimbăm
de-a lungul râurilor, în mijlocul florilor,
cântam melodii
sub un soare cu totul de aur:
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
 
Apoi la sărbătoarea din satul meu
dansam toată ziua,
nu oboseam niciodată,
și luni, la școală,
eram iar împreună:
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
 
Eram patru fete, dar
băieții erau trei.
Eu țineam mult la el,
și un altul ținea la mine.
Nu putea să meargă așa.
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
 
Toate astea complicau un pic
dulceața acelor zile.
Câțiva ani apoi s-au scurs,
și școala s-a terminat,
și iubirea ne-a separat.
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
 
Cu amicii nu ne-am căsătorit niciodată,
pentru că fericirea
s-a aflat ici și colo.
Ne scriem toți încă,
dar mult, mult mai multe.
 
Antonio, Ivan, Boris și eu,
Rebecca, Paola, Giovanna și eu.
Sasha, Mario, David și eu,
Barbara, Mimi, Natasha și eu.
Sasha, Mario, David și eu,
Barbara, Mimi, Natasha și eu.
 

Be The One

Like a bird inside the room of unease
Lost because there is no way out
You write rememberance letters to me
And the night brings in cherry fragrance
 
Open the window and imagine
Let my name be your oath
Put a picture of me under your pillow
Let the time fly, we will love each other
 
Be the one, be here
Dream golden dreams on my shoulder
You must love someone
And get over someone
 
Be the one, be here
Dream golden dreams on my shoulder
You must breath love
Sing it and live it
 
Like a bird inside the room of unease
Lost because there is no way out
You write rememberance letters to me
And the night brings in cherry fragrance
 
Open the window and imagine
Let my name be your oath
Put a picture of me under your pillow
Let the time fly, we will love each other
 
Be the one, be here
Dream golden dreams on my shoulder
You must love someone
And get over someone
 
Be the one, be here
Dream golden dreams on my shoulder
You must breath love
Sing it and live it
 

Little princess

Come, come
Look in my soul
Pass, pass
Block my brain
On sinful thoughts
Try to refer me
Let that everyone is going crazy from envy
 
Come close, come close
Let my pressure rise
But visit my desk and pedigree
Don't let
That they see us together
You could come on naughty voice
 
Chorus
I don't let that they steal you from me
You are the most beautiful in the city
No one can offend you
I always keep your back
But I can't be with you
I pull all bad with myself
We are an impossible link
I am trouble, and you
Little princess
 
Come close, come close
Let my pressure rise
But visit my desk and pedigree
Don't let
That they see us together
You could come on naughty voice
 
Chorus 2x
 

Who is he?

Who is he? He is a strong guy
merciless fire rays, a puzzle, his name is Birlaa
He is a force, a walk, a straightforward person without obstacles
a heat flame, he is Birlaa
 
When it becomes dark, he chase away the enemies
He writes the enemy's name in the garden and destroy him
He thinks about the day when he can encounter and kill the thugs
He finishes off by pressing the gun trigger with a plan
 
He tells that police shirt is something to be proud of
He tells that police arrogance is a pride
He tells himself as the death god
He tells as friend at the last time just before trigger pulling
 
Who is he? He is a strong guy
merciless fire rays, a puzzle, his name is Birlaa
He is a force, a walk, a straightforward person without obstacles
a heat flame, he is Birlaa
 
He analyze the enemy's eyes, he deeply focus and see
He finds the shadow under the eyes and beats them
He thinks that nothing is above the law
He respects I.P.C more than his mother
 
With all five senses so sharp,
with a honest heart,
no one is there to beat you as long as
you have these two above,
you come forward with rage
 
Who is he? He is a strong guy
merciless fire rays, a puzzle, his name is Birlaa
He is a force, a walk, a straightforward person without obstacles
a heat flame, he is Birlaa
 
When it becomes dark, he chase away the enemies
He writes the enemy's name in the garden and destroy him
He thinks about the day when he can encounter and kill the thugs
He finishes off by pressing the gun trigger with a plan
 

Inima mea

Vreau să te cunosc,
Vreau să simt
Cât de tare mi-ar bate inima
Dacă ai fi alături de mine.
 
Vreau să-ți arăt,
Vreau să te las să-ți pierzi
Gândul în creierul meu ca să văd
Dacă fugi sau rămâi.
 
Vreau să te cunosc,
Vreau să simt
Cât de tare mi-ar bate...
Să te cunosc...
Vreau să simt
Cât de tare mi-ar bate inima
Dacă ai fi alături de mine.
 
Vreau să-ți arăt,
Vreau să te las să-ți pierzi
Gândul în creierul meu ca să văd
Dacă fugi sau rămâi.
 
Vreau să te cunosc,
Vreau să simt
Cât de tare mi-ar bate...
 
Vreau să te cunosc,
Vreau să simt
Cât de tare mi-ar bate inima
Dacă ai fi alături de mine.

Christmas Eve

I remember it all very well
It was Christmas Eve
I got home and found my girl on distress
The children were all crying
The table was empty, there was no food
Then I went out, bought some candy, some meat
I also bought a gingerbread
And, fulfilling my destiny,
I dressed up as Santa Claus
 
I called my girl
'I'm gonna get up on the roof
And fall down the chimney
Meanwhile, you
Get all the kids
And rehearsal 'Jingle Bells''
 
Oh, God, what a sacrifice it was
The chimney hole was very tight
My girl saw my despair
And then made the whole tenement get alarmed
To get me off there
They needed to call the firemen

And if you go

Like a ship that sails off
Like the sun dying out
For a few tears that dried up
I am waiting
 
Like a withered rose
Like a falling bird
Like a wounded hound
I would like to keep you
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Take my hand
Wait till tomorrow
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Give me a chance
Wait till tomorrow
 
Like a breaking wave
Like a face without a smile
Like a scream amidst silence
I am waiting
 
Like an offended heart
Like a piano out of tune
I want to shout at you
I want to keep you
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Take my hand
Wait till tomorrow
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Give me a chance
Wait till tomorrow
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Give me a chance
Wait till tomorrow
 
And if you go (and if you go)
And if you go (and if you go)
Take my hand
Wait till tomorrow
 

Dew Drops

If I only knew
When I would die
Ah, my Lord, my God
I would've hired a carpenter
To build me a coffin
Ah, my Lord, my God
 
I'll just lie down and die
I'll fly up to God
Ah, my Lord, my God
I'm with our God
With great concerns
Ah, my Lord, my God
 
My silken grass,
Oh, my dew drops of pearl
 
Take me down, my dear God
From heaven - and back to earth
Ah, my Lord, my God
From heaven - and back to earth
Onto the yellow sands
Ah, my Lord, my God
 
My silken grass,
Oh, my dew drops of pearl
 

Santa In A T-Shirt

Santa Claus will come in a T-Shirt
Using a flipflop and jeans shorts
Playing the agogô instead of the bells
Singing his namesake's1 'Palpite Infeliz'...who wrote this song
Then, it will be Christmas Day
The night will be happier
 
He will extend a towel on the gutters
Of every suburban square of the country
He will bring liquor, rice, beans, chili pepper
Dulce de leche, gummy beans and quindim2
Then, it will be Christmas Day
The night will be happier
 
And children blocks will come over
From their newspaper beds
And drag-queens
Carnaval's thin men3
With their feet on the ground
Soldiers of passion
A bandoline
Someone will bring along a guitar
A tambourine
And the crowd will dance as the bells ring
 
Back on the hill, another boy will be born
And in sunrise, kiskadees will come
On Christmas Day
We can be happy
 
And children blocks will come over
From their newspaper beds

Soldiers of passion

A tambourine

Back on the hill, another boy will be born
And in sunrise, kiskadees will come
On Christmas Day
We can be happy
 
Back on the hill, another boy will be born
And in sunrise, kiskadees will come
On Christmas Day
We can be happy
Happy, happy...

Alone

If you're disappointed
with the guy you like
if your love gets you down
Don't lose hope
And when you're crazy in love
And when you lose your dearest
Don't lose yourself
 
Bad and bad rejoicing
Just blaming you
When something is killing you
or something makes you alive
And when you're crazy in love
And when you lose your dearest
Don't lose yourself.
 
Alone, if you remain alone
Don't let the others find out
Because they'll celebrate your loneliness and sorrow
And when you're in pain
Call me for love
I won't betray you
Everyone is pretending to be happy
 
Alone, if you remain alone
Don't let the others find out
Because they'll celebrate your loneliness and sorrow
And when you're in pain
Stay strong
Those miserable people lighting candles
And wishing them luck.
