Jacques Brel - Aldonza versuri traducere în engleză




Aldonza

I was born like a bitch on a rainy night.
I was born and my mother left, singing,
and I know nothing of her except the hatred I feel for her.
I should have been born dying.
And then of course there's my father. People often say
that girls keep their fathers deep inside their hearts,
but I never knew my father, for my father was many.
My father was a regiment.
I can't even say whether they were Andalusian or Prussian.
Did they die up north? Did they die down south?
I have no idea!
A Lady? And how does he think I could be a Lady?
I grew up like a bitch, from crossroad to crossroad.
I grew up too early, on the straw meant for the mules.
From soldier to soldier, from low-life to low-life,
I knew the benefits of love.
And I live like an animal, I do it like you would blow your nose,
and I live on, not knowing why, nor for what, nor for whom.
For a penny I get up, for two pence I lie down,
for three pence I do whatever you want!
If you hardly believe me, come and behold for three pence
the remains of the craziest bride of the most crooked brigand on earth.
Now dispell your clouds and look at me like I truly am.
A Lady, a true Lady has a virtue, a soul.
God be damned, of all the bastards I knew,
you who speak of stars, you who point at the skies,
you sure are the most infamous, the most cruel ever.
Hit me, I'd rather taste your whip than your pipe dreams.
Hit me till I burn, till I fall, till I lie on the ground,
but keep your tenderness to yourself, give me back my despair.
I was born on manure, and that's where I'm headed.
Now please, I beg you, no more talk about Dulcinea.
Can't you see I'm nothing? I'm but Aldonza the whore.
 
Do whatever you want with my translations. I'm not rich enough to sue you anyway.

Kizomba





[Pre-Chorus: Dystinct]
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh, look me in the eyes
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh my beloved, look me in the eyes
 

[Chorus : Dystinct]
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
 

[Verse 1 : Dystinct]
Give me a ten
Yeah, you're a ten for me
Got my eyes on you
They can’t even come close to you
Yeah yeah, mami
I can take you to the store
You can take whatever you want
Mami, give me real love
Habibi, my heart beats
When you look at me
Habibi, I’ll do everything for you
With all my heart
 

[Pre-Chorus: Dystinct]
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh, look me in the eyes
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh my beloved, look me in the eyes

Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
 

[Verse 2: Franglish]
I don't want to wait anymore
Become my lady
And my love I dedicate it to you
The Almighty predicted it
There's no looking back, no no
Baby follow me, we'll take it slowly
Together, all for you my baby,
My life - let's get married
Have a girl
My love, look me in the eyes
Yeah I know, let's go, we have to go
 

[Pre-Chorus: Dystinct]
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh, look me in the eyes
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh my beloved, look me in the eyes
 

[Chorus : Dystinct]
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
 

[Verse 3: Jonna Fraser]
Baby, you see that I’m waiting
You’re playing with my pride
If it takes too long
I won’t want it anymore
Would you rather see me shine
Without you by my side?
Or do you prefer love and the guidance?
Did you forget how you were on those airlines?
Baby, who took you into that fast life?
You know I’m feeling messed up now
I’m in love with you
I stay in love with you, yeah
 

[Pre-Chorus: Dystinct]
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh, look me in the eyes
When I'm not here, do you still think of me?
Or is it just for a moment that I stay in your head?
Don't you find it strange, this shouldn't be this way
For me, oh my beloved, look me in the eyes
 

[Chorus : Dystinct]
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting
Aaah, tell me, I'm listening
I'm here, waiting

Skin





I didn't only want your skin,
Mine is enough for me.
I wanted a little yourself,
Myself loves yourself.
 

While walking without arrival, waiting for your call
While I'm closing and opening myself up
I wanted to be attached to you.
While painting myself, not even recognizing myself
When I was cursing inside but laughing outside
I wanted you to fall in love with me.
 

Don't just make love to me, but talk to me
The words are stick in my throat
I'm dying in this woman body.
 

All beauties are yours, All beauties shall be yours
I came to terms with me being ugly.
 

Your body is warm, words are cold
Your voice is lack of trust, it's far away it's hoarse
I'm sick of getting in your flesh
Sick of falling from your chest.

To the Fate of the Sword





The sword of that Borges doesn't
remember its battles. The blue Montevideo
besieged by Oribe for a long time,
the Grand Military, the desired
and so easy victory of Caseros,
the intricate Paraguay, the time,
the two bullets that penetrated the man,
the water tainted by blood,
the bushwhackers in Entre Ríos1
the leadership of the three borders,
the horse and the spears of the desert,
San Carlos and Junín, the ultimate responsibility...
God gave her brilliance and she was blind.
God gave her the epic accomplishment. She was dead.
As still as a plant she knew nothing
of the virile hands mor of the noise,
nor of the overworked hilt,
nor the metal marked by the homeland.
In among those things is one more thing
that the museum's display case forgot,
a symbol and a vapor and a curved
and cruel form that nobody looks at anymore.
Perhaps I am no less ignorant.
 
  • 1. Entre Ríos is a central province of Argentina, located in the Mesopotamia region.

Eternal Melody of Love





They say that I'm a heartbreaker,
An adventurer and a gambler
A Don Juan filled with passion...
But the truth is very different:
I'm just like everybody else!
In my heart I carry, deeply etched,
The echo of a few notes
That always move me profoundly
Whenever you're not by my side!
 

[Chorus:]
The eternal melody
That was born to reminisce,
About the taste of your lips
And the golden light of sunset
In the colour of your eyes...
Turned into ever-changing light,
The eternal melody
If my sweet companion!

 

The eternal melody
That I ceaselessly repeat,
Reminds me of our story,
Which has no story to tell
And fills with harmony
This sorrowful loneliness.
The eternal melody
Of love made into song!

 

Maybe there could be others
Who would put the world at your feet
And would offer you the very stars...
I love you and I always will do so!
Nothing can keep apart
Those who were born to love each other:
We'll remain forever tied
To the eternal melody
That talks to our senses.
 

[Chorus:]
The eternal melody
That was born to reminisce,
About the taste of your lips
And the golden light of sunset
In the colour of your eyes...
Turned into ever-changing light,
The eternal melody
If my sweet companion!

 

The eternal melody
That I ceaselessly repeat,
Reminds me of our story,
Which has no story to tell
And fills with harmony
This sorrowful loneliness.
The eternal melody
Of love made into song!

 

Mozart's music,
Which I used to admire so much,
Today I'm feeling with sadness
That it doesn't appeal to me at all!
 

[Chorus:]
The eternal melody
That was born to reminisce,
About the taste of your lips
And the golden light of sunset
In the colour of your eyes...
Turned into ever-changing light,
The eternal melody
If my sweet companion!

 

The eternal melody
That I ceaselessly repeat,
Reminds me of our story,
Which has no story to tell
And fills with harmony
This sorrowful loneliness.
The eternal melody
Of love made into song!
