Searching in the air for prey
A cat crosses the street
If it's black, woe unto us!
Even time stops,
And looking at it, people think
Of how to drive it back!
Like a man without a mind
Only I go forward
Everyone cries out to me "Are you crazy?"
But why it is dear to me
And I love the black cat
That, I don't know how to tell them.
Don't be afraid, love
Even if the whole world says
At nightfall that you'd have
The eyes of a black cat
If you cause disaster,
May you be only my disaster,
Cross my path all my life
And ten times a day!
Look at a black cat,
People run backwards
Throwing stones at it
When I see how it limps,
My heart bleeds
And I make a place for it in my life.
Everyone expects a disaster now
And may the blue of the sky fall on my head on the spot,
They cannot understand why the black cat
To me, brings only good luck.
Don't be afraid, love
Even if the whole world says
At nightfall that you have
The eyes of a black cat.
If you cause disaster,
May you be only my disaster,
Cross my path all my life
And ten times a day!
Searching in the air for prey
A cat crosses the street
If it's black, woe unto us!
Even time stops,
And looking at it, people think
Of how to drive it back!
Like a man without a mind
Only I go forward
Everyone cries out to me "Are you crazy?"
But why it is dear to me
And I love the black cat
That, I don't know how to tell them.
