Ave Maria
Where have you been hiding? Don't you know we need you Things are looking pretty bad down here I know that there is beauty Gentleness and laughter These are things you always stood for Help us find them too Hey, there Maria! Santa Maria, Maria May I take a liberty And say that it's a shame to me Not to live in harmony We're all just hoping someone will step Forward singing Amen, Amen Ave Maria Where have you been hiding? Don't you know we need you? Things are looking pretty bad down here I know you hear the fighting See the torch we're lighting On our quest for peace and freedom Help us see this through Hey there, Maria! Santa Maria, Maria May I take a liberty And say that it's a shame to me Not to live in harmony We're all just hoping someone will step Forward singing Amen |

If I were a desert flower
All winter long I'd pain and cower Spring would make me sing My voice would ring As tiny buds begin to bloom In spring I'd blossom and forget The winter's gloom If I were a brook of water Kissed by the frost along my borders Spring would make me sing my voice would ring As I'd release my icy chains In spring I'd bubble and forget the winter's rains But I am only a child of man I am only a child of man Just an innocent child of man? Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so If I were a joyful songbird All winter long so cold and somber Spring would make me sing My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves Of silk A song as beautiful and pure as mother's milk But I am only a child of man I am only a child of man Just an innocent child of man Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so Don't be surprised By this look in me eyes Like a flower or tree I will bloom in the spring I will shed all my woes As the green grass grows Like a flower or tree I will throw my head back and sing |

With the breaking of the dawn
I will peek beyond the glass There's an endless stretch of blue below An ocean cold and vast I am traveling again Between the heavens and the clouds Reaching out, turning into a vision Into a future, strong and proud But I say, oh There's nothing more I desire Than to spend my life with you Setting me gently on fire We're a very special two Only you can understand Walking parallel, on separate parts But always holding hands As we lay our yellow bricks On the road to something better Can we find a point of meeting And continue on together? And I say, oh There's nothing more I desire Than to spend my life with you Setting me gently on fire |

I am strong, I can fight But I don't know Tower, brick and stone Make my way on my own But I don't know? I don't know why, I don't know hoe If I can fly, can I fly now Are my wings strong enough to bear The winds out there? Hey, I don't know Tell me it'll never fade And I'll go forth unafraid 'Cause I don't know Show me rain and flood To cool the fie in my blood 'Cause I don't know I don't know why, I don't know how If I can fly, can I fly now Are my wings strong enough o bear The winds out there?

It's obvious you're special
I've known it all along I suspected you from the moment You flew through my window And fell to the floor Saying 'I'm yours Take me, I'm yours' And it's obvious I'm crazy With every hazy dawn I inspect myself, and in light of my plight I am certain As loud I may roar My eyes will implore How fully I'm yours Have you ever been told you're too utterly bold To be true? With a flash of your smile I am baffled, beguiled I'm bewildered by you Do you know the love you inspire Would make me fly higher than I've ever flown before? Now inspire me to more Inspire me to more |

I walk alone into lady night
She wraps me in her black veils Wraps me tight Her velvet touch on my weary eyes Kisses softly Windy sighs Lady Night in her grandeur Flaunts jewels of light Flirting with Sir Half-moon She shimmies slowly Backs-o'-mountains Dips her hair in twilight Walks alone into lady night The woman's discreet as a grave, and I know she'll Want your tears? Lady Night's got an appetite For sorrow liquidated into Pearls of light One by one she'll gather them to her breast Kiss your lowered eyes and bid you rest She take me to her tummy, I clutch her warmth I know that I am falling She delves into my mind, brings out my darkest thoughts The keep her dark from dawning (I know that's what she wants?) I turn my back to Lady Night My mind is clear My pearls are in the satchel I've paid my share of blackness to her Turn my back to the lady, though she calls She calls But I am going to the dawn And she can no longer keep me |

In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape I would look below and see Mario Braving the ferocious dandelions Mario our fearless superintendent Kept the garden green, despite the parkway smog But the flowering weeds Their fates decreed Pulled, to keep his rosebush from dying Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed Something strong was pulling at my head Pulling at my heart? Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields Tell me, who will love this wildflower For exactly what she is? Years passed by, we left that red brick building Left Mario behind For a brand new house But my dark brown skin On the white washed walls within Stood out, so it'd get me up and cryin' My growing pains had many rooms to fill then Mother never knew Had a garden to keep clean While there was N.Y. Grease On the young flower from the Middle East She was busy pulling dandelions Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed Something strong was pulling at my head Pulling at my heart? Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places Wildflower, so lowly 'neath that lovely rosebush Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields Tell me, who will love this wildflower For exactly what she is? |

Another day, another small town
A summer breeze The bougainvillea is still in bloom His room (phone rings, no-one answers) The morning comes, they take their showers They go to work, they do their hours It's a routine they lean on. (phone rings, no-one answers) His books are on the shelf (It doesn't matter what we do Craving curious finger it will never leave us His favorite after-shave time that used to pass has now stopped ) Lingers still.... (phone rings, no-one answers) (phone rings, no-one answers) The evening news, they hear them saying Tonight's the game, his team is playing They go to bed Instead. (phone rings, no-one answers) Out in the quiet street One stray dog is crying And if their eyes don't meet All is well.

Reveals the wild horse that I am... I don't have too many words I am not sophisticated Listen to the crying birds They call you in my name Let me be your desert wind Rattle you when you're sedated For a soul so far elated Cannot experience shame It's all annihilated by her flame It's all annihilated by her flame It's all annihilated by her flame!

Tell me what's going on It's hard for me to feel you When you're far away You know, I worry Are you sad or all alone again? I would do anything just to know Are you happy where you are? I would do anything to be there When you need me And hold you close And to kiss you hair Sit on your bed Now count to three Open your eyes?it's me Hey there Everyone says "hello" I try to keep them posted on your whereabouts But all they manage is to be polite And send regards I want to scream and shout Do you know there's a crater in my heart? I want to scream and shout Do you know I've perfected the painful art Of an empty space Sit on my bed Pick up the phone Hear your voice say? I'm home |

I am a young woman
With callused hands and feet With an ever - growing problem Buried in me deep It has stripped me of my beauty With an overwhelming pain And on yesterday's proud forehead It has burned the mark of Cain It happened long ago Though it seems like only yesterday I had come back home After years of wandering astray Walked familiar streets Never knowing fate would find me there And ever since I've been crippled 'Neath this burden I must bear The Mark of Cain The child of pain Of trouble and of war Mother Nature cannot comfort Nor the coolness of the sea Lord above, how can I love This thing that I abhor? Child of pain is growing in me Within me he is waging war Battling for breath Battling for blood And a body of His own I've considered the solution But that would be my death For while I've waited and debated He has grown Deep in my heart I wish I could love him Erase our past with a mother's embrace I want to start fresh But within me I'm fearful Will I find my oppressor in his tiny face? The Mark of Cain The child of pain Of trouble and of war Mother Nature cannot comfort Nor the coolness of the sea Lord above, how can I love This thing that I abhor? Child of rape Is growing in me.

There is light coming in Through the crack in the door Now There is hope Where i'd never expect it before Now There are so many things But there's nothing at all Now You are learning to stand I am learning to fall. Now As the air in the night Becomes cooler and sweet Now I get up seven times Just to cover his feet Now There is pain But i've packed it away for next year Now There is newness and grace and for now, There's no fear. Then I can hardly remember what then used to be Then There was someone i knew Looked exactly like me I was running and running With so much to boast And i had no idea What matters the most Now As the air in the night Becomes cooler and sweet Now I get up seven times Just to cover his feet Now There is pain But i've packed it away for next year Now There is newness and grace and for now, There's no fear. Later When all of this has turned to songs And faded pics Later When colored wooden blocks Turn into heavy bricks Later When you will greet me only With the shyest smile Who knows what later brings? And so meanwhile.. Now There is light coming in Through the crack in the door Now There is hope Where i'd never expect it before Now There are so many things But there's nothing at all Now You are learning to stand I am learning to fall. |

Give me your pain
Give me your sorrow Give me your loneliness And broken dreams Your bad times And your worry Now forget Now forget Give me your past Give me your family Give me the walls you build And the ones you break Your shadows And your longing Now forget. Now forget. All that will be But isnt yet Now forget, Now forget. Ill put it all In a small wooden box With the rusty old lock And the sparrows in flight Ill guard it with my life Through the long long night You are my eyes You are my passion You are my journey to where ive been You are my reason For living Now forget Now forget. Ill put it all In a small wooden box With the rusty old lock And the sparrows in flight Ill guard it with my life Through the long long night Give me your truth Give me your questions Give me your longing for what will be Give me your daydreams And your demons Now forget Now forget. All that will be But isnt yet Now forget Now forget Now forget Now forget |

Here we are again
After everything has happened Only you and me And the light is fading fast Who would have believed When the tiny seed was planted This would be the year When the rain would come at last Every passing hour Changes us But i love you more than any day before today Today Listen to my heart As it stutters like the raindrops Let me fill my soul With the beauty of your eyes I may be a fool But i always want to hold you Tenderly i say You give reason to my life Every passing hour Changes us But i love you more than any day before today Today We Can Work It Out (Lennon/McCartney) Try to see it my way, Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on? While you see it your way, Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone. We can work it out, We can work it out. Think of what you're saying. You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright. Think of what I'm saying, We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night. We can work it out, We can work it out. Life is very short, and there's no time For fussing and fighting, my friend. I have always thought that it's a crime, So I will ask you once again. Try to see it my way, Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong. While you see it your way There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long. We can work it out, We can work it out. Life is very short, and there's no time For fussing and fighting, my friend. I have always thought that it's a crime, So I will ask you once again. Try to see it my way, Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong. While you see it your way There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long. We can work it out, We can work it out. |

we're born
we're crying we fall we're trying we're little we're laughing we're lonely sometimes we grow we're open we're lost we're hoping we're careful we're calling we're leaving behind you say we need to work together with love and care for everyone without the fighting and the anger you say the world could be as one but every time that you say we do you think about me? 'cause every time that you say we I hope you think about me we're strong we're chosen we're scared we're frozen we're hardened we're hopeful we're holding at bay we take we're giving we shake we're living we're lovers we're sinners we're running away and if we fail to make a difference and if our hope is almost gone despite the fighting and the anger you say the world could be as one but every time that you say we do you think about me? 'cause every time that you say we I hope you think about me and every time that you say we do you think about me? 'cause every time that you say we I hope you think about me |

Lists
I make lists Of all the things that i need to fix Of all the things that I'm not prepared for Of all the many things that i dread Lists I make lists Of all the things i tried for, but missed Of all the things i gave up, but cared for Of all the words of love left unsaid Dream, without fear Your indian worry doll's here Under god's pillow so small So that way you wont worry at all Dream, without fear Your indian worry doll's here Under god's pillow so small So that way you won't have to worry at all Lists Very long Of all the things that I'm doing wrong Of all of the hysteria pending Of all the things I'd love to forget Lists Very deep Of all the time i can't seem to keep Of all the songs that still have no ending Of all the ways to do better yet Dream, without fear Your indian worry doll's here Under god's pillow so small So that way you won't worry at all Dream, without fear Your indian worry doll's here Under god's pillow so small So that way you won't have to worry at all |

Come, my bride... How can I close my window When the storm is near? How can I close my window When your feet are bare? How can I close my window When the ocean weeps How can I, knowing you're Awake somewhere... The owl shattered my sleep When in the night he cried, Come, my bride. |

But she is very quiet It is clear she'll never heed She must be on a verbal diet, So he begins to plead: "You will drive me down to hell With the shower of your glances Burning rain of cruel romances That is tearing me apart! From my hat to my shoe-lace I am poisoned and disgraced Would you please give me a taste A small percentage of your heart!" Then suddenly, she spoketh In a very high register, As if she were performing in Don Carlos She said: "mister... (opera, in Italian?) "Do you know I'm sick and tired Of a fate of being wired Oh, pierrot, your thickness is a crime! You've fallen to a foolish swoon Pathetically you cringe and croon Your destiny is sealed, for all of time!"

I remember years ago A little girl with her laughter From high up on on your shoulders you would tell Me stories, And sing to me softly Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back When she undid her thick black braids My heart would also come undone In the meadow, I unraveled them Friendly old moon smiled down on us But in the fall, shed shed them all To the autumn of our souls In the meadow, I unraveled them Friendly old moon smiled down on us Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back She has gone, this little girl And taken spring away with her Now that same girl stands before you Long black hair caped over her shoulders Stage lights shine And in my mind I send a song out to you Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back But autumns past And she will laugh Fall is all but gone away A lovely spring Begins Today |

Music: Achinoam Nini (Noa) Paranoia is a bad disease Paranoia, has got me on my knees I've got a patented pad-lock on my toilet door Gonna hold that box of matches, Just to make sure It's really quiet, and that's as weird as hell I'll check on Frieda, my neighbour, and see if she is well I don't think twice, Call Tel Aviv vice And throw on a fashionable bulletproof vest Underneath my bed, what horror lies in store? A big green monster! Who is she looking for?!? Axe in the door, the mailman rings (Could it be the phone bill, and other awful things?) They sent an ambulance to take old Frieda away (She was really ga-ga*, for all I can say) Paranoia, man, it's really mean Why do I always make an awful scene? Underneath my bed, what horror lies in store? A big green monster! Who is he looking for?!? Clean a windowpane, and I'm in pain I see a cop and opt to take religion up again Check every corner, I never miss a glance, Any squeak or peeks enough to put me in a trance! (Down town baby the girls wear blue They wear black silk stocking and high heels too And red-hot lipstick, it makes me afraid To be simple and true, So I learn it from you) Finally, I quit, and then, who would believe? I realized that paranoids had filled up Tel Aviv I say, no need to fear, Paranoia's dead. Take a minute or an hour With some shampoo in the shower, Clear it all out of your head * slang for crazy |

Lyrics & music: Achinoam Nini (Noa)
She went to the river, She never thought twice She went to the river, The river of ice Slowly she removed the blouse of silk From her back Carefully undid her skirt And let it fall unwrapped She cut with her fingers, The cold river sighed She wanted the water The water inside She walked to the center, Unbraided her hair Stepped out of her panties And left her breast bare Stretched out on the ice She dug into it slowly, Methodically punching The half frozen floor The blood from her fingers Helped warm them, but only Until it froze over a moment, No more No more He watched from the tower, He saw her below Her physical power would melt Like the snow But not so the power Of crystal decision The lock of the mind In undaunting precision On the window, A flower he'd bought to her Bought, but forgotten to water The night rolled in slowly, But did not bring sleep Her opening was only a few Inches deep But as she pressed her head Down to the unyielding shell She could hear the water Almost well Morning crept in cautiously, Fearing what it'd find A ring of clothes around on Opening of the mind And the water humming For beneath She is mine And the water humming For beneath She is mine She is mine |

Lyrics: Hart
Music: Bodgers You are too beautiful, my dear, To be true And I am a fool for beauty Fooled by the feeling that Because I had found you, I could have bound you too You are too beautiful For one man alone, For one lucky fool to be with, When there are other men With eyes of their own To see with Love does not stand sharing Not if you care. Have you been comparing My every kiss with theirs? If on the other hand I'm faithful To you Its not through a sense of duty You are too beautiful, And I am a fool for beauty |

How many times I say the words
Again and again and again and again A thousand different ways I say I love you And I tell myself I can and I can If I say the words again and again A thousand different ways I say I need you When I'm with you walls will crumble I sit down I stand I stumble Every word I mumble comes out wrong And again I try, trip and fall, Burn inside and again I call your name... And I want to dance this dance with you This crazy dance for two And dancing I'll pretend Everything's alright And you, stay with me tonight Baby... Lately I've said these words Again and again and again and again Don't know if there's anyone to listen And I tell myself I can and I can 'Cause I didn't run when the others ran And never really cared what I was missing When I'm near you I'm the queen or I'm nothing Or I'm in between Always running not so sure where to... And you, again your face Touch me but you won't embrace me Why? And I want to dance this dance with you This crazy dance for two And dancing I'll pretend Everything's alright And you, stay with me tonight Baby.. And I want to dance this dance with you This crazy dance for two And dancing I'll pretend Everything's alright And you, stay with me tonight Maybe.. Again and again and again A thousand different words for keeping still And I tell myself try something new, There are a thousand things that you can do And I know I can... And I know I never will. |

Angel with a broken wing
Never leaves the ground Angel, trying hard to sing But she can't make a decent sound. Angel with a broken wing Feeling so alone Angel, she's tried everything But she can't find her way back home. So she wanders in disguise With a longing in her eyes And she looks up to the skies But there's nothing there but grey She looks down and turns away... Angel with a broken wing In our neighborhood Angel, look how things turn bad When you're so busy being good So she wanders in disguise With a longing in her eyes And she looks up to the skies But there's nothing there but grey She looks down and turns away... Angel with a broken wing Feeling so alone Angel, she's tried everything But she can't find her way back home. No, she can't find her way, Her way back home. |

Blue touches blue
Touches grey touches brown I look down at my feet, they've been with me for years I take one step for you and then two for myself Oh, I need to be stronger I need to be stronger Blue touches blue Touches black, then expands All the tears and the years in the palm of my hand Do you think you can tell me what's wrong and what's wronger? I need to be stronger I need to be stronger I want to twist in your arms Like a snake that's been charmed Like a baby newborn with his arms groping out I would shout but there's always a song and I need to be stronger I need to be stronger Blue touches blue I look down at my feet I take one step for you I need to be stronger Blue touches blue Touches gray, frothy white Where my face is all blurred and reflecting the night If I tell you I feel like a bird in the cold And I need you to hold me? I need you to hold me Blue touches blue... |

A sad mistake
A strange coincidence Two fields were crossed I lost my innocence Stood staring straight into the sun An orange flame To break the black of night He calls my name But doesn't say it right I stay in place When I should run Carefully, carefully now Don't let it fall and break Hold it tight, with both hands For sadness sake I know you're there But I can't see too well I touch your hair Inhale your earthy smell I try to feel Beyond the glass Carefully, carefully now Don't let it fall and break Hold it tight, with both hands For sadness sake A sad mistake But I'm recovering The birds of prey No longer hovering.. Carefully, carefully now... |

Stop.
It's 3:15 You have one minute. Are you ready? Now think of all things created Think of those that you care for Think of what you've been blessed with And everything that makes you afraid Wish for anything Let yourself dream Wish for things to get better Until 3:16 There's a stone in my garden that keeps me committed And close to the ground when I feel I should run There's a branch in my window that helps me remember To reach out my arms and touch the sun.. There are two million ants that live in my sidewalk Working together to nurture and feed And the old TV set, with the sad evening news So I never forget how much love we need Home-made religion (In my kitchen) Home-made religion.. Think of how you've been feeling And how you've made others feel Think of what you've been given And what you need to heal Wish for anything.. Try to keep still Wish for things to get better And maybe they will There's a plant in the corner that helps me remember All of the beauty that grows from a seed And the old TV set, with the sad evening news So I never forget how much love we need Home-made religion (In my kitchen) Home-made religion..

Don't you know we need you Things are looking pretty bad down here I know that there is beauty Gentleness and laughter These are things you always stood for Help us find them too Hey, there Maria! Santa Maria, Maria May I take a liberty And say that it's a shame to me Not to live in harmony We're all just hoping someone will step Forward singing Amen, Amen Ave Maria Where have you been hiding? Don't you know we need you? Things are looking pretty bad down here I know you hear the fighting See the torch we're lighting On our quest for peace and freedom Help us see this through Hey there, Maria!

Smile, without a reason why
Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. Tears, a tidal wave of tears Light, that slowly disappears Wait, before you close the curtain There is still another game to play And life is beautiful that way Here with his eyes forevermore I will always be as close as you remember from before Now that you're out there on your own Remember what is real and what we dream is love alone Keep the laughter in you eyes Soon your long awaited prize We'll forget about our sorrows And think about a brighter day Cause life is beautiful that way. We'll forget about our sorrows And think about a brighter day, Cause life is beautiful that way There's still another game to play And life is beautiful that way. |

If I were a desert flower
All winter long I'd pain and cower Spring would make me sing My voice would ring As tiny buds begin to bloom In spring I'd blossom and forget The winter's gloom If I were a brook of water Kissed by the frost along my borders Spring would make me sing my voice would ring As I'd release my icy chains In spring I'd bubble and forget the winter's rains But I am only a child of man I am only a child of man Just an innocent child of man? Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so If I were a joyful songbird All winter long so cold and somber Spring would make me sing My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves Of silk A song as beautiful and pure as mother's milk But I am only a child of man I am only a child of man Just an innocent child of man Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so Don't be surprised By this look in me eyes Like a flower or tree I will bloom in the spring I will shed all my woes As the green grass grows Like a flower or tree I will throw my head back and sing |

I remember years ago A little girl with her laughter From high up on on your shoulders you would tell Me stories, And sing to me softly Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back When she undid her thick black braids My heart would also come undone In the meadow, I unraveled them Friendly old moon smiled down on us But in the fall, shed shed them all To the autumn of our souls In the meadow, I unraveled them Friendly old moon smiled down on us Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back She has gone, this little girl And taken spring away with her Now that same girl stands before you Long black hair caped over her shoulders Stage lights shine And in my mind I send a song out to you Once I had a little girl With two braids swinging on her back But autumns past And she will laugh Fall is all but gone away A lovely spring Begins Today |

Lyrics: Noa
Music: Noa/Gil Dor I'm here to say a word or two In the name of love and innocence It's been a long time they've been out of style, But i won't live in illusion, There's not much chance that things will change on lonely planet earth. All that is natural, all that is free Like me loving you, and you loving me, Like the sweet fruit growing on a tree, Like the blood-red choral in the sea, Like shaking hands and sharing food, And a real creative attitude And a big strong hug,yes, that feels good, And the miracle of birth Shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom, Shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom You really don't need a diploma From any university To understand and to enjoy This plentiful diversity You only need to clean your mind of all those pre-conceptions And use your mouth for laughing and for asking and to kiss? Communicate, communicate, Don't think: "oh lord, i've come too late!" you're always welcome at love's gate To wash your feet of fear and hate So when you come and when you go, The words are peace, goodbye, hello, In a language that I know it goes like this: Shalom shalom,shalom Shalom shalom, Shalom shalom,shalom Shalom shalom? So if our strategy is love (don't bite my head off, i said love) And you say: "duuuh, So simple!" Yeah, but easy to miss?. So when you come and when you go, So when you come and when you go, The words are peace, goodbye, hello, In a language that I know it goes like this: Shalom shalom,shalom Shalom shalom, Shalom shalom,shalom Shalom shalom |

In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape I would look below and see Mario Braving the ferocious dandelions Mario our fearless superintendent Kept the garden green, despite the parkway smog But the flowering weeds Their fates decreed Pulled, to keep his rosebush from dying Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed Something strong was pulling at my head Pulling at my heart? Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields Tell me, who will love this wildflower For exactly what she is? Years passed by, we left that red brick building Left Mario behind For a brand new house But my dark brown skin On the white washed walls within Stood out, so it'd get me up and cryin' My growing pains had many rooms to fill then Mother never knew Had a garden to keep clean While there was N.Y. Grease On the young flower from the Middle East She was busy pulling dandelions Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed Something strong was pulling at my head Pulling at my heart? Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places Wildflower, so lowly 'neath that lovely rosebush Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields Tell me, who will love this wildflower For exactly what she is? |

Translation: Oh father, mother Don't make me marry him for money I love another Whose eyes are kind and lips are honey The cattle grazing fields are free So why enbondage me Your cows and oxen can be sold Do not enslave my soul Oh father, mother Your nights are stormed With rain and thunder Oh father, mother Your nights are stormed With rain and thunder The water gushing from the sky Is teardrops from my eyes The thunder tearing skies apart The Beating of my heart |
