Your power won’t last forever

Come on great men of the world

who owe the power

You have already had much money

To move on soldiers

much gold to feel stronger

luxury palaces to live comfortably safe in!

And fields, ground, soil, trees,

Rivers, lakes and seas

As far as your own eyes can get

‘Till the horizons can show!

 

But do you really think

your power will last forever?

 

Don’t you remember Ramses the Third,

Cyrus of Persia, Nebuchadnezzar,

Alexander the Great, the emperor Augustus

and all the kings from the past up to Napoleon?

You’re now inventing new richness made of nothing

You’re exploiting the soil under its surface

And even you’re searching for more in the universe

Still cheating the poor!

But don’t never forget

Whom God created the world for!

How beautiful is love

How beautiful is love

 

 

I fill a pillow with your hair

And  keep it close in  night-time!

 

If you don’t love me

Let me do it my way.

 

Don’t laugh on me Elem

Please don’t

‘cause I would hate you

 

Instead I love you:

how beautiful is love!

Don’t ask me why

Don' t ask me why I've been there;

I had to  fill the emptiness of my days

lost in the nothingness

with no place to go to;

Don't ask me why;

I only remember now

 the time of hope

The smoking rings

The dreaming trips

That's our life

Made of mistakes

Driven by mysterious course

Aimed to search

What you think to be true

And time cheater of our senses

Only God

Do not  mislead

Our souls.

Goodbye flower of Antioch

I’ve sucked your nectar

For a day

And then

I flew away!

 

I wish fate

had made me not bee

So I would not be here

In  search of blooming flower

Looking for inexistent

Happiness

But I would be between your petals

Fragrant of love

Alone in the trembling evening

When the vagueness of illusion

It is no longer day

In the shadow of the flame

I expect you to reach me

From undefined directions

For the countless paths

That lead   souls to souls.

I wonder if a heart beats with mine!

But I am lonely

In the trembling evening.

Lonely is passing another day

Lonely is passing another day

while the sun is trying to breach down the sky

 on its way to the other side of the earth

I ask  myself. “Why do we have to suffer?”

II

Loner I’m passing another day

Over my restless soul

With no certain direction

And I ask  myself:

“What I am looking for?”

III

Lonely is passing another day

And I fear the unknown

And I don’t fight for money

And I don’t fight for love

and I ask  myself:

“Why don’t I leave

For the infinity ways

Lay aside on the world ?”

Loner I’m passing another day
