Poetry Translations by Tango -- BIG HEART, Nautilus Pompilius

BIG HEART

Lyrics: Nautilus Pompilius
Translated by: Tango

You can't walk on water
You can't work miracles
When you hurt, you cry
When you're ashamed, you lower your eyes
But my loneliness burns to smoke in your fingers
And all you know
And all you can
Is to make my heart big

Make this heart big
Make this heart big

You don't ask for anything in return
And anyway, what could I give you?
You insist that only those who don't know how to lose
Need things
When I thought myself healthy and strong
You knew I was ill
You entered my chest
And broke all my ribs
To make this heart big
Make this heart big.
