Mojito

Into two tall glasses only

lime with mint-leaves

Press gently and crush

You won't forget this night

Add sugar moderately

that makes life sweet

it needs what you are seeing1

there is some ice for cooling

Although heart beats like a drum

pour the white rum out

[we] don't hurry in excess

let it flow slowly

in the end, some sparkling water

must be poured because

the situation is hot anyway

all the room is highly inflammable

It all is again exactly like

I recall from that time

when everything began and how it all

once started

Your buttons were opened up to heaven

all the stars fell on us

Not anyhow was I able to understand2

Not mine or your hands could stay put

From that night till now

you and mojito get me crazy3

oooh

Alone in a corner, in a dimly lit one

a TV-screen blinks

Through open windows

the moon brings the light

You move to my side

impudently slowly

You are a teaser

I know waiting pays off

It all is again exactly like

I recall from that time

when everything begun and how it all

once started

Your buttons were opened up to heaven

all the stars fell on us

Not anyhow was I able to understand

Hands of neither could stay put

From that night till now

you and mojito get me crazy3

oooh

1. were there 'seda' pro 'selle' it would make more sense, "you should need..." / what you are seeing is needful"... but if I try to read reallllly into the original aka mishear the rhythm, it could be "IT NEEDS WHAT YOU SEE", they should have just used 'sellel(e)' pro 'selle'
2. or if you want to stick with the fact that it says 'väel' then "not by any force was I able to understand"
3. a. b. if I look closely at this interpuncuation, these two lines would be more like "from this night till now I [am followed? by]... you and mojito will be mixed"
