Albatrossi [English translation]

I still see the old Tornator in my mind,

then when you left with it, my childhood friend

So you dropped out of school

I was supposed to go with you

but told by parents, I stayed at home coast

I followed your departure by the edge of the dock

We were both 15 years old

You held your own end,

imposed your life by yourself,

experienced everything I dreamed of in vain while being young

Albatross that glides without resting

Maybe it's your soul, who knows

You may soar free in the blueness of the sky

My childhood friend, an old seaman

My childhood friend, an old seaman

On Tornator, you saw the hot nights of Rio

and you examined carefully the beautiful reed belts of Honolulu

I continued in high school,

then in municipal office

Not all the works

are given by vocation

And more and more often after work,

I sat in bar,

stared at the bottom of a glass

Why didn't I go with you?

No one understands me

I had expected something else from life

Albatross that glides without resting

Maybe it's your soul, who knows

You may soar free in the blueness of the sky

My childhood friend, an old seaman

My childhood friend, an old seaman

I heard that Tornator is already scraped

I felt like I had experienced the same fate

I had no office anymore,

dark red covered my nose

and I sat alone in the beach till sunrise

When I saw a black-headed gull curve close to me,

I knew I finally realized something:

that's the soul of the man

whose jobs are left in halfway

and who builds everything up only to dreams

But albatross that glides without resting

Maybe it's your soul, who knows

Someday I'll be able to soar free like it

If I do my job like an old seaman

If I do my job like an old seaman
