Life as Fire 3

Born to many languages
Would she ever love anything as much as watermelon

When the Doctor first scheduled my son September 11 I thought of her

Been a good day longer than bad

The Nazi tanks separated her from her mother

It took a Village

Opportunity would separate them again

And bring her watermelons beyond her dreams

Uncle at the News paper and the best house in town

There was something I could relate to

Evacuated again from where she raised her own children

Not another language but some extra sounds

Imagine me with all my relatives fighting in all those wars

Finally again to her shores

NATO bombed the hospital her granddaughter was just born

We had a trust forged and we just shared our concerns

Never made it to the bomb shelter before they stopped but that once

I would never think I could not go to my granddaughter's wedding

There are many things I cannot relate to

But to the fire or the vinegar she could take 100 kinds of mushrooms

I could not count the variety

I could eat them

I could enjoy them

All to this trust we had forged

Happy Birthday

Rođen na mnogim jezicima

Da li bi ikada volela bilo šta kao lubenicu

Kada je doktor prvi put zakazao mog sina za 11. septembar, pomislio sam na nju

Bio je dobar dan duže nego loš

Nacistički tenkovi su je odvojili od majke

Trebalo je selo

Prilika bi ih ponovo razdvojila

I donesi joj lubenice van njenih snova

Ujak u novinama i najbolja kuća u gradu

Postojalo je nešto sa čime bih se mogao povezati

Ponovo evakuisana odakle je odgajala sopstvenu decu

Ne drugi jezik, već neki dodatni zvukovi

Zamislite mene sa svim mojim rođacima koji se bore u svim tim ratovima

Konačno opet na njene obale

NATO bombardovao bolnicu njena unuka je tek rođena

Imali smo povjerenje i samo smo podijelili naše brige

Nikada nisam stigao do skloništa prije nego što su stali, ali to jednom

Nikad ne bih pomislila da ne mogu da odem na venčanje svoje unuke

Postoje mnoge stvari sa kojima se ne mogu povezati

Ali na vatru ili sirće mogla je ponijeti 100 vrsta gljiva

Nisam mogao da prebrojim raznolikost

Mogao bih ih pojesti

Mogao bih uživati ​​u njima

Sve ovo poverenje koje smo stekli

Sretan rođendan
