TWICE - TICK TOCK versuri traducere în engleză

Fingers of Destiny

Don't ask me anything, my pain is getting bigger
I will never say anything about that woman
 

I pray to God to bring her back, she is everything to me
But they don't allow it, the fingers of fate don't allow it
 

I loved only her like no one before
But she left, destroyed everything
 

I pray to God to bring her back, she is everything to me
But they don't allow it, the fingers of fate don't allow it
 

Don't ask me anything, for the sake of your life
To live together, God didn't allow it
 

I pray to God to bring her back, she is everything to me
But they don't allow it, the fingers of fate don't allow it
 

Archimedes

And like a scarlet star, my cigarette butt flies away
From the window onto the snow1
Be careful
And this drunken fool runs through the square
Like Archimedes ran in his time
Hey, get dressed
 

And so, oh gods
Let's summarize
My head is in place and my feet are not cold
It seems
 

On the way, they chased us to the river with water cannons
The president kisses the beard and baptizes the children
Never tell anyone your real last names
And give me the lever2
 

And I will turn this world upside down
Hit the chakra, hit the head, commander
Remember, gravitational force has gravity
Or forget and do as they say
 

And like a scarlet star, my cigarette butt flies away
From the window onto the snow
Be careful
And this drunken fool runs through the square
Like Archimedes ran in his time
Hey, get dressed
 

Eureka, eureka, eureka
Why are you yelling like that, what kind of America have you discovered there
Everything is fine with us, we put on glasses
Shoulders are tanned and streams are murmuring
 

We lie in the tub and don't need too much commotion
And turn off the water
The mind is a mess
This cartoonish freedom
 

Not yours, not ours
Remember, any action triggers resistance
Or go for a walk and remember your place
 

And like a scarlet star, my cigarette butt flies away
From the window onto the snow
Be careful
And this drunken fool runs through the square
Like Archimedes ran in his time
Hey, get dressed
 

Oh yes, oh yes
On the head, a hat3
Under the tongue, words
Under the index finger, a mouse
 

On the hair, cream
We danced on the bones and ran home
We kissed the monitor and deleted the spam
And tomorrow, there's a fresh batch of news and amusing emails
 

• 1. The word 'fortochka' is used, but this is uncommon in English, so 'window' was used instead. A fortochka is a 'small ventilation window, spanning the frame of one window pain, that opens on hinges independently of the whole window', according to Wiktionary.
• 2. This references Archimedes' law of the lever, in which he claims that, with a long enough lever, he could move the world. 'Rychag' could be translated as 'leverage', but due to the law of the lever, I opted to keep it as 'lever'.
• 3. A 'koplak' is specifically a hat with a high crown.

Once Upon a Time There Was a Woman

Once there was a woman
who remains only in memories
Once there was and then she vanished
buried all my hopes
 

Who loves you, where are you, dove
I no longer stay at the old address
Who kisses your lips, white dove
You led one boy to ruin
 

Life writes sad stories
there is no more love
Only this song remains
she and I loved each other
 

Who loves you, where are you, dove
I no longer stay at the old address
Who kisses your lips, white dove
You led one boy to ruin
 

I often look at old pictures
faded memories
Only tears remain for me
another took my dear
 

Who loves you, where are you, dove
I no longer stay at the old address
Who kisses your lips, white dove
You led one boy to ruin
 

You are far away

Far away are the blue eyes, now another looks at them
That's why my heart suffers and gives me no peace
 

Far away, you are far away, every day further
To possess your love, but that's no joke
 

Far away are the hot lips, now another kisses them
That's why my heart suffers, losing its last hope
 

Far away, you are far away, every day further
To possess your love, but that's no joke
 

Far away is the black hair, another tangles it
To me, the hot tears wet my face
 

Far away, you are far away, every day further
To possess your love, but that's no joke
