Eurovision 2021 Albania:
Anxhela Peristeri - "Karma"
Karma
Zoti nuk ma fal!
Jeta si në përrallë më kish llastuar
Lart në qiell si një yll jetoja unë
Qeshja si e marrë kur ti rënkoje
E pashpirt, vetëm veten doja shumë
Zoti nuk ma fal
Bota mbi mua ra
Më ike ti, më ikën miqtë
As dritë nuk ka
Zoti nuk ma fal
T'thirra por zë nuk kam
Lotët mbledhur në dorë
Të ndryshkur janë
Se të kërkoja nëpër zemra bosh
Dhe e kuptoja asgjë nuk më josh
E vetme jam
Po, e vetme jam
Kur unë rënkoja, qeshje si i marrë
E meritoja unë të hiqem zvarrë
Fajtore jam
Po, fajtore jam
Zoti nuk ma fal
Bota mbi mua ra
Më ike ti, më ikën miqtë
As dritë nuk kam
Zoti nuk ma fal
T'thirra por zë nuk kam
Lotët mbledhur në dorë
Të ndryѕhkur jаnë
Karma
God won't forgive me this!
Life like in fairytales had spoiled me
High in the sky like a star I was living
I was laughing like crazy when you were sobbing
Heartless, I was in love with myself
God won't forgive me this
The world fell on me
You left me, my friends left me
There's not even light
God won't forgive me this
I called you, but I don't have a voice
The tears gathered in my hand
Rusted they are
Because I was looking for you in empty hearts
And I could understand nothing entices me
Alone I am
Yes, alone I am
When I was sobbing, you were laughing like crazy
I deserved it to crawl
Guilty I am
Yes, guilty I am
God won't forgive me this
The world fell on me
You left me, my friends left me
There's not even light
God won't forgive me this
I called you, but I don't have a voice
The tears gathered in my hand
Ruѕted they аre
Karma
Jumala ei anna mulle tästä anteeksi
Elämä kuin saduissa oli hemmotellut minua
Korkealla taivaalla kuin tähti, elin elämääni
Nauroin kuin hullu, kun sä itkit
Sydämetön, olin rakastunut itseeni
God won't forgive me this
The world fell on me
You left me, my friends left me
There's not even light
Jumala ei anna mulle tästä anteeksi
Soitin sulle, mutta mulla ei ole ääntä
Kyyneleet kokoontuivat käteeni
Ruostunut ne ovat
Koska etsin sinua tyhjistä sydämistä
Ja ymmärsin, ettei mikään houkuttele mua
Yksin olen
Kyllä, yksin olen
Kun itkin, sä nauroit kuin hullu
Ansaitsin ryömiä
Syyllinen olen
Kyllä, syyllinen olen
Jumala ei anna mulle tästä anteeksi
Maailma tippui päälleni
Jätit mut, kaverini jättivät mut
Ei ole edes valoa
Jumala ei anna mulle tästä anteeksi
Soitin sulle, mutta mulla ei ole ääntä
Kyyneleet kokoontuivat käteeni
Ruoѕtunut ne ovаt
Karma
Dieu ne me pardonne pas
La vie, comme dans un conte, m'avait gâtée
Haut dans le ciel comme une étoile, je vivais
Je riais comme une folle quand tu gémissais
Sans cœur, je n'aimais que moi-même
Dieu ne me pardonne pas
Le monde s'est effondré sur moi
Tu m'as quittée, mes amis m'ont quittée
Il n'y a pas de lumière
Dieu ne me pardonne pas
Je t'ai appelé, mais je n'ai pas de voix
Les larmes recueillies dans mes mains
Sont rouillées
Car je te cherchais dans des cœurs vides
Et je comprenais que rien ne me tentait
Je suis seule
Oui, je suis seule
Quand je gémissais, tu riais comme un fou
Je méritais d'être entraînée vers le bas
Je suis coupable
Oui, je suis coupable
Dieu ne me pardonne pas
Le monde s'est effondré sur moi
Tu m'as quittée, mes amis m'ont quittée
Il n'y a pas de lumière
Dieu ne me pardonne pas
Je t'ai appelé, mais je n'ai pas de voix
Les larmes recueillies dans mes mаins
Sont rouilléeѕ
Κάρμα
Ο Θεός δεν θα μου το συγχωρέσει αυτό
Η ζωή όπως στα παραμύθια με είχε χαλάσει
Ψηλά στον ουρανό σαν αστέρι ζούσα
Γελούσα σαν τρελή όταν έκλαιγες
Άκαρδη, ήμουν ερωτευμένη με τον εαυτό μου
Ο Θεός δεν θα μου το συγχωρέσει αυτό
Ο κόσμος έπεσε πάνω μου
Με άφησες, με άφησαν οι φίλοι μου
Δεν υπάρχει καν φως
Ο Θεός δεν θα μου το συγχωρέσει αυτό
Σε πήρα τηλέφωνο, αλλά δεν έχω φωνή
Τα δάκρυα μαζεύτηκαν στο χέρι μου
Σκουριασμένα είναι
Γιατί σε έψαχνα σε άδειες καρδιές
Και μπορούσα να καταλάβω τίποτα δεν με δελεάζει
Μόνη είμαι
Ναι, μόνη είμαι
Όταν έκλαιγα, γελούσες σαν τρελός
Μου άξιζε να σέρνομαι
Είμαι ένοχη
Ναι, είμαι ένοχη
Ο Θεός δεν θα μου το συγχωρέσει αυτό
Ο κόσμος έπεσε πάνω μου
Με άφησες, με άφησαν οι φίλοι μου
Δεν υπάρχει καν φως
Ο Θεός δεν θα μου το συγχωρήσει αυτό
Σε πήρα τηλέφωνο, αλλά δεν έχω φωνή
Τα δάκρυα μαζεύτηκαν στο χέρι μου
Σκουριασμένα είναι
Karma
Dumnezeu nu mă va ierta pentru asta
Viața ca în povești m-a răsfățat
Sus în cer, ca o stea, trăiam
Râdeam ca un nebun când tu plângeai
Fără inimă, eram Îndrăgostită doar de mine
Dumnezeu nu mă va ierta pentru asta
Lumea s-a prăbușit peste mine
M-ai părăsit, prietenii m-au părăsit
Nu mai există nici măcar lumină
Dumnezeu nu mă va ierta pentru asta
Te-am chemat, dar nu am voce
Lacrimile s-au adunat în mâna mea
Ruginite sunt
Pentru că te căutam în inimi goale
Și nu puteam înțelege nimic care să mă atragă
Singura sunt
Da, singura sunt
Când plângeam, tu râdeai ca un nebun
Am meritat să mă târăsc
Vinovata sunt
Da, vinovata sunt
Dumnezeu nu mă va ierta pentru asta
Lumea s-a prăbușit peste mine
M-ai părăsit, prietenii m-au părăsit
Nu mai există nici măcar lumină
Dumnezeu nu mă va ierta pentru asta
Te-am chemat, dar nu am voce
Lacrimile s-au adunat în mâna meа
Ruginite ѕunt
