Paroles et traduction Richard Müller - Hlava V Smútku

Hlava V Smútku

Bolo pol desiatej
V kaviarni hustol dym
Z prítmia sa vyliahla najkrajšia z otrokýň
Tisíc a jednej noci
Napohľad plachá a práve tým dráždivá
Krása čo každého upálí za živa
Keď oheň nie je len pocit
Vraj každú krásu len znásobí drobný kaz
Tej žene s očami lane sa ani raz
Nemihol na tvári úsmev
Možno ju nivočí tajomný neznámy
Néverou
Pitím či hustými rečami
Srdce jej zanechal pusté
Mal som už kúpené Tak som sa osmelil
Hviezdy sa tlačili v nebeskej posteli
Za oknom kaviarne Orient
Keď som si prisadol z očí jej vyvrela
Láva čo hasila životy v Pompejach
Vedel som hneď čo mi povie
"Radšej si odsadni tajomný neznámy
Budeš ma nivočiť hustými rečami
A zahneš mi za minutku"
Potom ss pobrala od svojej tequily
Možnože niekam do útulku pre víly
Zostala mi hlava v smútku
Prečo mám hlavu v smútku
Skolonený nad tequilou
Veď som s ňou za minutku
Minul celý svoj život

Sad Head

It was half past nine
The smoke thickened in the cafe
From the darkness emerged the most beautiful of bondmaids
A thousand and one nights
Shy at first glance, and even more provocative
A beauty that burns everyone alive
When fire is not just a feeling
They say that a flaw only magnifies beauty
But on that woman with Bambi eyes
A smile never flickered
Perhaps she was ravaged by a mysterious stranger
By infidelity
By drinking or harsh words
Her heart was barren
I already had my drink paid for, so I took my chance
The stars were crowding into the celestial bed
Outside the cafe window the orient
When I sat down, lava surged from her eyes
That quenched the life in Pompeii
I knew at once what she would say
"You must leave me, mysterious stranger
You will destroy me with your harsh words
And you will cheat on me in a heartbeat"
Then she departed from her tequila
Perhaps to a shelter for fairies
I was left with my head in sadness
Why is my head in sadness?
Hunched over my tequila
Since I was with her in a heartbeat
She wasted her whole life
