Hunger

Перевод песни группы "Отель Трансильвания", автор оригинального текста - Анна Эльф

You are driving the car through the city streets
Past the showcases and blinking neon lights.
This world’s lost all memory of you, and it
Seems you are forgotten in your land these nights.
Ancient paths look like the new streets in these dead
Lights which have replaced the living desert heat
Your heart longs for lonely silent dunes and sad
Shine of million stars’s reflecting your defeat.

Sunlight... Dryness... Hunger
Dryness... Sunlight... Hunger

This is unforgiving, harsh and ruthless land.
Sun destroys those who are pitiful and weak.
Thirst is tearing from inside but there is only sand.
Air is just like wax, it’s melting down, melting down, melting down...

You inhabited this land for centuries,
And your glance is filled with art of days of old.
Memory recalls millenia of heat, and this
Knowledge will prevent your world from getting cold.
It’s enchained by mystic ghosts of fading past,
Scorched from deep inside by burning desert rage.
Set your memories free and change the world at last,
See how everything around will shift and change.

Sunlight... Dryness... Hunger
Dryness... Sunlight... Hunger

This is unforgiving, harsh and ruthless land.
Sun destroys those who are pitiful and weak.
Thirst is tearing from inside but there is only sand.
Air is just like wax, it’s melting down, melting down, melting down...

Change the modern cities into sandy dunes
And the high-rise turns into serai
With silk and pearls
And diamond hoards.
Magic of old tales,
Triumphs and prevails.

Close your eyes. Now do you see your world?
Feel it here, so close
Heeding to its calls
Dream’s inside you and you’ll again stand tall.
Caravan’s gone east to save your ancient soul.

Sunlight... Dryness... Hunger
Dryness... Sunlight... Hunger

This is unforgiving, harsh and ruthless land.
Sun destroys those who are pitiful and weak.
Thirst is tearing from inside but there is only sand.
Air is just like wax, it’s melting down, melting down, melting…  melting down, melting down, melting down.
