OriginalEnglish translation / Traduzione inglese / Traduction anglaise...
I BOMBED KOREAI BOMBED KOREA
I bombed Korea every night,
My engine sang into the salty sky,
I didn't know if I would live or die.
I bombed Korea every night
I bombed Korea every night
I bombed Korea every night.
Every day, I have bombed Sidon\Zidon
Among the smoky "mushrooms" clouds, in the first daylight
I could have also returned [from Zidon], inside of a coffin
Everyday, I have bombed Sidon\Zidon
Everyday, I have bombed Beirut
Everyday, I have bombed Beirut
I got out from there alive [it means: I have survived], but I also could have died [ there]
Everyday, I have bombed Beirut
Red flowers bursting down below us,
Those people didn't even know us,
We didn't know if we would live or die,
We didn't know if it was wrong or right,
I bombed Korea every night.
[In a slang this sentence in Hebrew – בלחיצה קלה [it means: Easy hand on the trigger gun ]
"In one gunshot", we have killed people, we didn't knew
We probably have killed some of them by mistake
I got out from there alive [it means: I have survived], but I also could have died [there]
Everyday, I have bombed Beirut
And so I sit here at this bar,
I'm not a hero,
I'm not a movie star,
I've got my beer.
I've got my stories to tell,
But they won't tell you what it's like in hell.
Now, I sit here all alone in the bar
I am not a star, I am not a familiar guy
Just, a someone, that in every dream
Dives instantly, into this hell
Red flowers bursting down below us,
Those people didn't even know us,
We didn't know if we would live or die,
We didn't know if it was wrong or right,
We didn't know if we would live or die,
I bombed Korea every night.
[In a slang this sentence in Hebrew – בלחיצה קלה [it means: Easy hand on the trigger gun ]
"In one gunshot", we have killed people, we didn't knew
We probably have killed some of them by mistake
I got out from there alive [it means: I have survived], but I also could have died [there]
