Paroles et traduction Berri Txarrak - Folklore

Folklore

Etxepare zenaren aldarri berbera
Dakargu egunera
Bost mende atzera

Hargatik agian aurreiritziak
Zuretzat gaur eta beti
Folklore baikara

Ta zeresan gehiegi ez al dugu ematen
Ez existitzeko?
Zaildu gara halabeharrez
Gai gara zure hesiak gainditzeko

Begiak itxi arren
Hemen bertan gaude
Gu isil gaitzakezu
Gure kantuak ez

Bitxikeria uste zenuena beste zerbait da
Sailkatu ezina

Ta zeresan gehiegi ez al dugu ematen
Ez existitzeko?
Zaildu gara halabeharrez
Dai gara zure hesiak gainditzeko

John Merrick bezala ikusiak
Begira begietan

Hortzak kendu nahi zenizkigun baina hala ere
Bestela ikasi genuen kosk egiten
Zeinek behar du froga gehiago?
Zeinek behar ote ditu?

Ta zeresan gehiegi ez al dugu ematen
Ez existitzeko?
Zaildu gara halabeharrez
Gai gara zure hesiak gainditzeko

Folklore

My claim same as that of Etxepare
I bring it to the light of today
Five centuries ago

Why perhaps the prejudice
For you today and eternally
Folklore is good

And do we not give too much importance
To not exist?
We have hardened ourselves of necessity
We are capable of overcoming your walls

Even if you close your eyes
We are right here
You can silence us
But not our songs

What you thought was a curiosity is something else
Unclassifiable

And do we not give too much importance
To not exist?
We have hardened ourselves of necessity
We are capable of overcoming your walls

Seen as John Merrick
Look into the eyes

You wanted to pull out our teeth, but nevertheless
We learned to smile another way
Who needs more evidence?
Who else needs it?

And do we not give too much importance
To not exist?
We have hardened ourselves of necessity
We are capable of overcoming your walls
