La noche celta Lyrics English Translation by Mägo de Oz
She was like an old blues song
so broken it was a lament
and in her gaze, life
just laid down to sleep.
She always played that song.
“The Blues of the Forbidden Kisses”
Loneliness nested in her voice as she sang.
But one night she woke up
and through her sobs she heard a voice.
It was a breeze made of light
that opened the window of her room.
Tonight the stars
have come to see you.
They’re taking you out to party
and to drink from bar to bar.
Paint with lipstick
a smile on your lips
and draw kisses
on the canvas of their skin.
Jump, run, flee
don’t let the sorrows catch you.
Drink life down
as if it were the end
and you will open windows.
When the doors close
look for a way out
and tomorrow, God will say.
They say that one day
she decided
to break the mirror and be free
and learn to love herself,
to take care of her inner self.
From then on she understood
that a pearl is just a wound
that with time turned into the most beautiful thing.
You don’t have to believe.
Just feel.
Know how to listen
instead of just hearing.
Get up and come live.
The Celtic night is waiting for you.
Tonight the stars…
have come to see you.
They’re taking you out to party
and to drink from bar to bar.
Paint with lipstick
a smile on your lips
and draw kisses
on the canvas of their skin.
Jump, run, flee
don’t let the sorrows catch you.
Drink life down
as if it were the end
and you will open windows.
When the doors close
look for a way out
and tomorrow, God will say.
You must protect the planet
because Gaia is special
since of all the universe it’s
the only one that has rum.
Tonight the stars
have come to see you.
They’re taking you out to party
and to drink from bar to bar.
Paint with lipstick
a smile on your lips
and draw kisses
on the canvas of their skin.
Jump, run, flee
don’t let the sorrows catch you.
Drink life down
as if it were the end
and you will open windows.
When the doors close
look for a way out
and tomorrow, God will say.
