Bulgarian Folk - Безродна невеста (Bezrodna nevesta) versuri traducere în engleză


Translation

Childless daughter-in-law


A cuckoo was chirping sadly,
It was chirping, hey, in the center of the village.
It wasn't a cuckoo that was chirping,
It was [actually] a childless daughter-in-law1.
 
Oh my, a cuckoo was chirping, Yove le, yo2
A cuckoo bird, Yove, Yove le,
Oh my, above the houses3, on an oak tree, Yove le, yo.
On an oak tree, Yove, Yove le
 
Oh my, it is chirping so much, that it is resembling [human] words, Yove le, yo
Oh my, the bird is talking, Yove,
Oh my, Kolyo4 has nine daugthers-in-law,
And a tenth one - Radulinka5, Yove le
 
Oh my, all [nine] each have a child, Yove le, yo
All [nine] each have a child,
Oh my, Radulinka - [has] not a single [child],
All [nine] each have a child, all [nine] each have a child
 
Oh my, on Easter, Yove le, yo,
On Easter day, Yove, Yove le
Oh my, the evil mother-in-law spoke, Yove le, yo
She said, Yove:
 
- Oh my, o daughters-in-law, dear daughters-in-law, Yove le, yo
Oh my, o daughters-in-law, dear daughters-in-law,
Go wash yourselves and braid [your hair],
Then go to the horo-dance6, Yove le.
 
And the youngest one Radulinka, Yove le, yo
She will be sitting [your] sons [for you]
The youngest one Radulinka
She will be sitting [your] sons [for you], because she is childless.
 
A cuckoo was chirping sadly,
It wasn't a cuckoo that was chirping,
It was [actually] a childless daughter-in-law,
It was [actually] a childless daughter-in-law.7
 
  • 1. The meaning of the original word невеста in modern Bulgarian is bride. Since the character is newly married into the family I chose 'daughter-in-law' in order to emphasize the troubled relationship between mother- and daughter-in-law.
  • 2. This catchy phrase occurs several times throughout the song. It's literal meaning is 'Hey Yovana'. 'Yove' being the vocative diminutive form of the female name Yovana. The phrase's role in the story might be to introduce an imaginary listener whom a choir is singing the song to. The phrase also contributes to the rhythm.
  • 3. In the original 'above the village'.
  • 4. A male name.
  • 5. A female name.
  • 6. Тraditional dance played in circle by people holding hands.
  • 7. The reason for the daughter-in-law to be represented as a sad cuckoo, is that she is being neglected by the family. The mother-in-law is treating her badly. The reason is that she is the youngest daughter-in-law in the family and has not gifted her in-laws with a grandchild. She is therefore forced to stay home and take care of the other children, while their mothers have fun on the Easter fair.

REBORN





Tears dissolve under the rain, wandering on the path of rebirth beyond the pain.
 

Can you hear cry your heart?
Let me hear cry your soul!
No pain! no gain! Don't fear.
 

Unable to look ahead, stopped and blocked by fake days, a facade of 'once more dice.'
 

Can you hear cry your heart?
Let me hear cry your soul!
No pain! no gain! Don't fear.
 

The reality soaked in the rotten rain is still a false breakdown.
This pain will eventually turn into a white future.
With a soul that needs no adornment, dye my heart and find me.
Livin' on the chaos.
 

Can you hear cry your heart?
Let me hear cry your soul!
No pain! no gain! Don't fear.
 

If you're afraid of the past and not seeking ahead, it won’t begin – a cloudy smile.
With this sorrow in my chest, toward the sky where light shines.
With a soul that knows no fear, open your eyes and find me.
 

Livin' on the chaos.
 

The rain wets my eyelids, showing the path ahead of pain as I walk the path of rebirth.

Mayfly





I think you were sometimes an egoist.
The smell of cigarettes and those words still linger in the classroom.
 

I can't throw away this dark past.
I can't throw away this terrifying present.
 

Why did you disappear?
That psychopathic smile of yours...
Why must the life of a mayfly be short?
Why did you disappear?
That psychopathic smile of yours...
 

You're always there in my memories and in my heart, I won't forget.
Even if my heart hurts,
Even if I feel the lessons,
I’m happy for the things you left behind.
 

Why did you disappear?
Why did you disappear?
 

The smell of cigarettes and those words still linger in the classroom.
Sleep peacefully, I’ll leave it to you.
I’ll carry your thoughts with me.

fu uh





Still, I haven't given up. Is it the same for you?
 

I think the world is small.
 

No matter how dark the place is, I can hear the music. In the attic with my eyes closed, I feel you.
 

Hoo~
 

Can you sleep tonight? I want to see you.
 

A necklace shining around your neck.
 

The things you gave me.
 

Suddenly, I think like this: I like the air outside, swaying. Even though there's a different, opposite side of me, I feel hope.
 

Hoo~
 

I'll stay in my heart.

-045-





In front of the phone, I was searching for words
I just wanted to say one word, 'Congratulations'
The love that disappeared last year
Your birthday
 

Gently, 045
Just the area code
I dialed and placed the receiver
But no, tears started to overflow right away
 

A quiet dream, you told me about it
The café on the hill overlooking Marine Tower
The seasons slowly
Melt away like water
 

Gently, 045
I entwined my fingers and walked
The mirage-like hill
The foreign ships swaying in the blurred sea
 

Gently, 045
Someday, to you
I want to smile
And say thank you from the bottom of my heart
