Черные Птицы (Нау) / Black Birds (Nautilus) - My draft 1

Black Birds (Nautilus)







Huge black birds come down from the sky,
Huge black birds, they search low and high,
They circle, they circle all the while
Searching, searching for my child.

And I said: Take my gold,
And I said: Take my gold,
And I said: Take my gold,
Take my gold and leave me alone!

- No we don't need your gold
- No, we don't need your gold
- Time has rusted all your gold
- And it is worth the same as stone.

One of birds reaches down and pries
The diamond from the child's eyes,
It take the diamond, filled with tears,
Leaving behind only cold black fear.

And I said: Take my kingdom,
And I said: Take my kingdom,
And I said: Take my kingdom,
Take my kingdom and take my crown!

- No, we do not need your kingdom,
- No, we do not need your kingdom,
- No, we do not need your kingdom,
- You are no longer a king, but a clown.

Then please take away my eyes,
Then please take away my eyes,
Then please take away my eyes,
I can't bear to see your deeds!

- We no longer need your eyes,
- We no longer need your eyes,
- We have been into your eyes,
- And took everything we need!
