Requiem
Author's Note: A song written a few days after I saw Episode Two. The Spanish bridge, was inspired by the song "Alegria" by Cirque Du Soleil; I'm not too sure whether the translations are accurate, but I don't mind anyone correcting me or telling me what they really mean. Still a little angsty, from Padme's point of view this time; working on others. Comments appreciated.
There are
eyes in the darkness;
there is
still comfort in these tears.
When my strength grows weary
and this voice fails;
when I think of my burden
of suffering beneath this veil:
there is
spite in rage and anger;
there are
streams in the desert.
Bridge:
Bel delittuoso grido (beautiful, delinquent scream)
come un ruiz de la vita (like a sparkle of life)
Bel delittuoso grido (beautiful, delinquent scream)
come un assalto di gioia (like a joyous strife)
We spoke
in colours of love only we could see;
we spoke
in soft winds over the green.
The promises of this secret
hidden deep within your heart;
torn by this hate and anger,
you wish to drown it in my blood:
we spoke
in tongues of distant dreams;
the spoke
and with your words painted me...
I remember
this dead affection that once loved;
I remember
our arms wide open.
A captive in your chains
crying this unheard song;
with an anthem for betrayal
and broken promises long gone:
I remember
this red of tears I bleed;
I remember
in anger how you've broken... me...
I remember...
