Billy Joel - Honesty versuri traducere în engleză


Swedish translation

Ärlighet

Om man söker ömsinthet,
så finns det ganska lätt
Inte svårt att få av kärleken
Men om man söker ärlighet,
går man bet på alla sätt
För ingen verkar vilja ge av den
 
Ärlighet, det är ett ensligt ord
Trolöshet finns överallt
Ärlighet, så sällsynt på vår jord,
det önskar jag mig framförallt
 
Alltid hittar jag väl nån
som fattar sympati
om jag visar öppet hur det känns
Men inget tjusigt ansikte
ska ljuga för mig fint
Jag vill ha en öppenhjärtig vän
 
Ärlighet, det är ett ensligt ord
Trolöshet finns överallt
Ärlighet, så sällsynt på vår jord,
det önskar jag mig framförallt
 
Kärlek kan jag hitta
Jag kan få en vän
Ända intill slutet kan
jag känna tryggheten
Vemsomhelst kan trösta mig
med löften omigen
Jag vet, jag vet
 
När jag är djupt inom mig,
var då inte rädd
Ingenting begär då av dig
Men om jag vill ha nån att tro,
säg, var kan jag då bli sedd?
Jag vill att du är uppriktig mot mig
 
Ärlighet, det är ett ensligt ord
Trolöshet finns överallt
Ärlighet, så sällsynt på vår jord,
det önskar jag mig framförallt
 
Svensk text: Andreas Eriksson

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 rushes1
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
 
  • 1. Rushes are a kind of grass-like plant used to make floor coverings and furniture, traditionally collected by young women. The motif of gathering rushes often has sexual connotation in folk songs of the British Isles and Ireland in both English and Irish. This song is no exception.
