Translation
Up there
It's not a witch, nor a sorceress
who turns up at my house,
Not at the time of the full moon,
But in the summer, on a clear day...
"Usually at dawn
I come while you sleep,
but this time it is not so..."
She said to me
"Fatigue, hatred and pain,
The dark fear of madness...
You hold all of Hell on Earth
Like the sky on your shoulders!
Each of you is mad
In love and in war
But life is not a sound to cut short..."
She said to me
... Up there there is no one
It's lonely there too, just like here
Up there, the clouds run
toward the stars that have been going out for many years
"As long as you're alive, not dying,
Look at this world -
Many here have dead souls
They are dead inside!
But they go and laugh
Not knowing that they don't exist...
Don't hasten your hour of death"
She sang to me
"It's possible to escape from life,
but never from death.
Life itself folds its wings
and I will return here..."
It's not a witch, nor a sorceress
that was in my house
But to have a drink of water on a summer's day
death dropped in by chance
