Rumi
Translation:
I saw myself as a thorn, so I went towards a rose
I saw myself as vinegar, so I mixed myself in sugar
I was a bowl full of poison, so I went to the cure
I was a cup of dregs, so I dived into the water of life
My eye was full of pain, so I sought Jesus’ hand
I saw myself as raw, so I mixed with the ripe
I found the dust of love’s alley to be the soul’s eye-liner
And I became poetry in the subtlety of that dust I mixed
Love said, “Yes, that’s right,” you said, “But don’t see it [as coming] from your self.”
I am wind and you are fire, I enliven you and inspire
Original:
خویش را چون خار دیدم سوی گل بگریختم
خویش را چون سرکه دیدم در شکر آمیختم
کاسه پرزهر بودم سوی تریاق آمدم
ساغری دردی بدم در آب حیوان ریختم
دیده پردرد بودم دست در عیسی زدم
خام دیدم خویش را در پخته‌ای آویختم
خاک کوی عشق را من سرمه جان یافتم
شعر گشتم در لطافت سرمه را می بیختم
عشق گوید راست می گویی ولی از خود مبین
من چو بادم تو چو آتش من تو را انگیختم
Camaron
Translation:
CHORUS
I am the wind
you are the fire
and I want to burn in your embers
or you can turn off the light with a little water
Leilere, lere lereilere
2nd verse:
Why don’t you look for me
I need you to find me
my world is a cold forest
in which I lose myself
my world is an empty thing
since only you can relieve me
I’m lost
and my love is so sincere
that sometimes without losing you
I am scared of losing you
if I lose you
I’ll take a kiss from your mouth
and I want to dream of you, awake
with you, with you
Leilere lerelerelereilere
Original:
Tu mare y la mía
se habían disgustao
pelillos del roete
se han arrancao
Por que no te vienes
y me ayudas a levantarme
no ves que yo estoy caio
tengo el corazón partío tengo el corazón herio
y como no seas tú quien lo alivie
no encuentra alivio
ESTRIBILLO
yo soy el viento
tu eres la hoguera
y yo en tus brasas quemarme quisiera
ni el agüita claralo podrá apagar
Leilere, lere lereilere
Por qué no me buscas
necesito que me encuentres
mi mundo es un bosque frio
en el que yo me extravio mi mundo es algo vacioy como no seas tú quien lo alivies
yo estoy perdio
Por eso mi cariño es tan sincero
que a veces sin perderte siento miedo
de perderte
si te pierdo
te hago beso de tu boca
y te quiero soñar dispierto
contigo, contigo
Leilere lerelerelereilere
