1. First Autumn Days

(intro)

2. Surrender In Dance

I'm lost in the openness
Cannot find the way to go
So for now I will dance, where I am

There's no aim, no destination
I sing and dance the day away
Wilderness below my feet
Just the thoughtless could dance
The rhythm of life

I had no time to hate
Because the grave would hinder me
And life was not so rich
I could finish enmity

Life may be full of care
And we hope for recovery
But while we are here, we should dance

The last time my restless feet
Sensed the warmness of the sun,
We walked side by side

The long and lost road along
At that time there was no need to dance

I had no time to hate
Because the grave would hinder me
And life was not so rich
I could finish enmity

The tragedy of life is
That it ends so soon
And that we wait
So long to begin with it

Dance like no one's watching
Sing like no one's listening
Love like you have never been hurt before

I'm lost, and surrender in dance
Love like you have never been hurt before
I'm lost, and surrender in dance
You can't hurt me anymore

3. Memoria

False world goodbye,
The enemy to rest
Now do the worst,
I do not weigh the spite
Free from the cares,
I live forever blessed
Enjoying peace and heavenly true delight

Round the world and back again
Is very far to roam
The footloose life of now and then
A wind-bound exile far from home
The leaves that just are open now
They'll have to fade and fall
Their faithful ever blooming now
Is merely in pain at all

Time's endlessly weighing
If you're prepared for the great trial
You know that you're just waiting
For the old man's smile

I remember all words spoken
All the songs that had been sung
How gracious were our hearts unbroken
When you and me were, oh, so young

Can't you see the coming dawn
Of summer day
Can't you smell the fear
For this endless way

False world goodbye,
The enemy to rest
Now do the worst,
I do not weigh the spite
Free from the cares,
I live for ever blessed
Enjoying peace and heavenly true delight

All the words remain unstated
All the songs I do not know
All too late my mind's elated
Take over now regretful woe

The summer's turning into pale
Finally I close my eyes
There is no use to desperate wail
Although it calls my soul to die at last

4. My Favourite Dream

He is nice, he is young
He is graceful, the son of the king,
A part of my favourite dreams
In the night, his eyes always light, only for me
And one day it will be.

What ever you'll see in me
One night long I am your favourite dream
Never forget me
Cause you won't ever know who I am

Stupid sisters of mine,
Your dreams will forever be dreams,
Not more
He'll have the chance to call me his wife soon
And no way to resist
His kismet he'll find, he'll find only in me

Heaven, oh heaven, please send me a sign
Cause the bad sisters are sisters of mine
Heaven, oh heaven, please give me a chance
Let me be delighted and free
Only this night

I'll leave no stone unturned
In my beautiful endless frock
I'm soft and tender like a rose in red,
Enchanted and glad
I'll enter the room gracile and in bloom

What ever you'll see in me
One night long I am your favourite dream
Never forget me
Cause you won't ever know who I am

Heaven, oh heaven, please send me a sign
Cause the bad sisters are sisters of mine
Heaven, oh heaven please give me a chance
Let me be delighted and free
Only this night

I close my eyes
And start my favourite dream

5. Promised Land

Ahead I see the shoes
Well-worn from all the land
Gentle ones and kind
As well as bleak and baleful ones
We've seen
Our journey through decades

The auras of the world
Are always suffusing our heads
Faces passing by
Some to notice and some to forget

Our shadows stay behind
Where once we were condemned
To be slaves
Today nothing is left
But our bleached and battered
Skin and bones

Now our hearts arrived
Where our souls are still longing to be
Step by step we go
The road is long, the fate in our hands

Our way to the promised land
We seek to reach it soon
The land where we can linger after all
A place to just call home

Ahead I see a boy
His young hands outworn from hard work
Who defines his life
He is not the one who pulls the strings
But see
Our journey far away

We beg for freedom
But sorrow is all we receive
Too weak to fight against
But too strong to just accept without hate

These days are long ago
I turn my eyes to better dreams
We don't fear the dark
Cause we want to achieve an aim

From now on there's no mourn
Only laughter will be our guide
Now our hearts arrived
And our souls don't need to long anymore

Our way to the promised land
We seek to reach it soon
The land where we can linger after all
A place to just call home

6. Days Of Yore

Day by Day we can't help growing older
Year by year spring did not help to feel young
Even the sun is getting cold and colder
I've failed you in more ways than one

Tonight the evening mists,
Find no place to gather
Twilight falls, light drops of silent rain
Saddened by the dying spring
Song and dance have come to an end

I think back of all my days of yore
Laugh and talk vanished to ash and smoke
I do nothing to remember
But I'm not able to forget

Tonight the evening mists,
Find no place to gather
Twilight falls, light drops of silent rain
Saddened by the dying spring
Song and dance have come to an end

Your lonely grave a thousand miles away
My face full of dust my hair like snow
There's a loveliness we share
Even though we're a thousand miles apart

Tonight the evening mists,
Find no place to gather
Twilight falls, light drops of silent rain
Saddened by the dying spring
Song and dance have come to an end

When shall we lie again
With no more tears
Hardly able to bear the sorrows
And regrets of my dreams
I have come a thousand miles
Sad now with autumn
And with my hundred years of woe
I climb this height alone

My road has wound
Through many years
Yellow leaves are shaken with a gale
Why should you linger
At the fork of the road
Too late to learn what sorrow means

Since yesterday betrayed and bolt me
Today has hurt my heart even more
I bless you for your true advice
But if we met I would not mind

Dance with me we're leaving all to soon
(Dance with me we're leaving all to soon)

Spring flowers, autumn moon,
When will they end?

7. Fairyland

What is the kingdom I mean,
Where the width never end.
Splendid and mighty
We all would be imposed.

Bewitch me with your touch,
And your colored tenderness,
Feel the wind and carry me away.

Is there a difference,
Between a singer and his song.
Or is there a difference,
Between a dancer and his dance.
Or is that only one,
Like the nature and kingdom of light?

Wavelength where the music ever sounds,
Without a masquerade
And heal all my wounds.
I know or feel it or I see,
The moment has come,
Where my heart's getting free.

Fairyland...

Everybody has a name,
That proves your existence,
But no one here has ever called any name.

And I allow my knowledge
To haze around me,
Give them names,
Take notice of them.

That's my first threshold,
And the rest I leave behind.
In acknowledgement,
Absoluteness you can find.
The way through the first gate,
Is to give names for the nameless lights.

Wavelength where the music ever sounds,
Without a masquerade
And heal all my wounds.
I know or feel it or I see,
The moment has come,
Where my heart's getting free.

I have the key to the fairyland,
On the threshold I stay,
Where the wilderness never ends,
But the heaven without firework,
And without peal of the bells,
Which calls me

8. Autumntales

Farewell, oh farewell
Sweet dancers in the wind
I see you are prepared to come with me
The long way home again

Farewell, my beloved
(Farewell to you)
I whisper to a fading flower
(I greet your embrace)
There's so much life in dying
After all this time you can go to sleep
(After all this time that passed
I can go to sleep)

This well-known melody
Rises up above the orphaned trees
Rejoining the restless wind
Bequeath scarlet rain to hunted leaves

Through this decay, you can see her
How she wanders
How she cries silent tears
Midnight's coming all too soon
And she has to end what she's begun

Come near come near to me
I know you are frightened
And I can't keep you safe
But see there's nothing holding you anymore
So please, don't insist on the waste

And now I see your eyes
(I'm waiting for you)
Your broken beauty is my guide
(I welcome your kiss)
There's so much life in dying
Take my hand,
Rest your head and seek relief
(I've saved my life for you,
Oh come near, let me seek relief)

Hope in her hair
And her fingers borrow pity out of your heart
Her eyes are staring right through you
And you can see yourself in them

Sweet dancers
There is nothing holding you anymore
Please come with me, my dear

Now autumn's tears begin to freeze
And I'm willing to leave again

9. Wild Birds

Lovely how we met each other,
Once in a clear summer night,
Our hearts sang merry songs.

As our souls come dancing by,
There stood in golden cages locked,
The tame birds by the riverside.

They'll never know the lovely dance,
Can never feel the touch of night,
For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly.

For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly.

Though their song was beautiful,
Full of dreams about a flight,
They'd never dare to join our dancing
looked at us not understanding,
Why our sun could shine more bright.

And our wildness makes them
Full of bright,
For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly.

No limits for our love were set,
We danced and sang to mornings light.
They looked at us not understanding,
Why our sun could shine more bright.

For tame birds sing a song
Of freedom while the wild birds fly.

Happily they bear their fate,
Can't miss what they never had.
They don't know about the other world.

Where we dwell,
Sing and dance together.
But we remain wild birds forever,
Until we fail, until we're dead!

10. Hijo De La Luna

оригинал: Mecano

Tonto el que no entienda
Cuenta una leyenda
Que una hembra gitana
Conjuró a la luna
hasta el amanecer
llorando pedía
al llegar el día
desposar un calé.

Tendrás a tu hombre piel morena
Desde el cielo habló la luna llena
Pero a cambio quiero
El hijo primero
Que le engendres a él
Que quien su hijo inmola
Para no estar sola
Poco le hiba a querer.

Luna quieres ser madre
Y no encuentras querer
Que te haga mujer
Dime luna de plata
Que pretendes hacer
Con un niño de piel
Hijo de la luna.

De padre canela nació un niño
Blanco como el lomo de un armiño
Con los ojos grises
En vez de aceituna
Niño albino de luna
Maldita su estampa
Este hijo es de un payo
Y yo no me lo callo.

Gitano al creerse deshonrado
Se fué a su mujer cuchillo en mano
?De quién es el hijo?
Me has engañao dijo
Y de muerte la hirió
Luego se hizo al monte
Con el niño en brazos
Y ahí le abandonó.

Y en las noches que haya luna llena
Será porque el niño esté de buenas
Y si el niño llora
Menguará la luna
Para hacerle una cuna.

Y si el niño llora
Menguará la luna
Para hacerle una cuna.

11. Enchanted Moonlight

Wild dreams, wild lust,
Seduced, and passionately touched
You're back, in hope for one kiss
In love, cold breath, we're one,
In our perspiration

You rule my soul, you thaw my skin
Console my tears, and be my sin!
Where ways begin to separate, that's our fate
There's only you, there's only me
I feel your lips, in ecstasy

Touch on my skin, I love your way
The candle lights, it's time to pray
In the middle of the moonlight,
First time to pray

And I close my eyes
For to lose yourself in me,
It's a new yearning you awake in me

Do with me what you want
And what you did in your dreams
Let us forget, that we are not yet married

Feel the snake of sin,
It might bring us to ruin
What we do is against the will of god
They could hang you high and let me burn
If you can't give away from me

Wild dreams, wild lust,
Seduced, and passionately touched
The moonlight enchants me
In love, cold breath,
My tears are only for your love
And for the perfect night

Moonlight enchants me, my heart's your slave
My curious, win now
The fight against the reason
God forgive my sin

Finish with me, what we begun
And in the moonlight, I feel the sun
The only way, you find in me
No other way, and we feel free
The only witness is the starry sky
I say some lovely whispers, and could die
I am fathomed, the innocence
Forever lost, forever past
In the middle of the moonlight, forever past

More intensified,
From one moment to the next
And your breath goes faster ever more

And we melt to one
And get one with the universe
We are one step behind the door of heaven
Now relax, darling, on my perspirated skin
With my hand I swim through your hair
And I know you cannot keep away from me
'Cause the moonlight is enchanted

Wild dreams, wild lust,
Seduced, and passionately touched
The moonlight enchants me
In love, cold breath,
My tears are only for your love
And for the perfect night

Moonlight enchant me, my heart's your slave
My curious, win now
The fight against reason
God forgive my sin

12. Regen

Der Welt er Leben schenkt,
Des Tropfens Niederschlag.
Den neuen zarten Spross,
Den bringt er zum erblühen.

Wäscht ab den Staub,
Enthüllt der Blätter frisches Grün;
Doch trüb scheint jede Stund,
Zu der er kommen mag.

Es weint der Himmel still um einen Sonnentag,
Der hingeschieden ist
Und dunkle Wolken ziehn herauf
Der Kuppel Glanz
Der Sonnenstrahlen fliehen;
Fort der Moment,
In dem des Tages Hoffnung lag.

Von düsteren Zeiten
Bringt ein fernes Grollen Kunde.
Der Wind fegt durchs Geäst,
Dreht lauernd seine Runde.

Und krächzend auf dem Feld
Sich schwarze Vögel scharen.
Von düsteren Zeiten
bringt ein fernes Grollen Kunde.

Es weint der Himmel still um einen Sonnentag,
Der hingeschieden ist
Und dunkle Wolken ziehn herauf
Der Kuppel Glanz
Der Sonnenstrahlen fliehen;
Fort der Moment,
In dem des Tages Hoffnung lag.

Der Regen immer fiel,
Wenn wir uns nahe waren.
Drum trotz der Düsternis,
Bringt er ein Lächeln mir.

Des Regens Tropfen,
Sind mir wie ein Kuss von dir,
Der Regen immer fiel,
Wenn wir uns nahe waren.

Es weint der Himmel still um einen Sonnentag,
Der hingeschieden ist
Und dunkle Wolken ziehn herauf
Der Kuppel Glanz
Der Sonnenstrahlen fliehen;
Fort der Moment,
In dem des Tages Hoffnung lag.
