مرداب

The Puddle

in a naked field under a deserted sun
me, an old puddle stuck in the hands of the ground
i am that old puddle separated from the whole world
the heat of the sun on my body chained to the dusty ground
 
i am the one who wanted to become the ocean one day
i wanted to become the biggest ocean in the world
i had hopes to go get to the ocean
burn the night to get to tomorrow
 
at first being thirsty under the old sky
but from my bad luck my way fell in the desert
my eye, my eye was looking over their behind that tall mountain
but from the hands of destiny brought me bad luck on the way
 
i fell into a hole the dirt prisoned me
the sky didn't rain the sky was conserving
now i am a puddle in pain of evaporating
one way i go in the ground the other way to the sky
 
the sun from up their the ground from down here
they make me evaporate my life became like this
they took me with my eyes i am dying here
my destiny is this i am suck on the ground
 
nothing is left of me i am only couple drops of water
the thirsty dirt is taking the drops away
i will get end up dry tomorrow when the sun comes
it will make me dry and take me to the sky

Translation reformatted, moved as a translation to this page (previously translation was added as a song page, which has since been merged to this page) since the user has been inactive since 2015.
