Opiumist (feat. Tuomas Saukkonen)

Ignea

Compositor: Olha Ihorivna Bohdanova / Yevhenii Zhytniuk

In heavy fumes
The visions I admired
Homesickness I have lost long time ago

Smell of the fresh bread
Richly embroidered shirts
The apple trees I used to sleep beneath

In vivid slumber
I didn’t dare to move
This hissing was a melody to ears

Obliviate me
And feel my solitude
In frigid land of opium and rice

姑娘, 你的家在哪裡?

The more you fight
The more I insist
Spider’s delight
Watching your tangled wings
Long inert life
Or two charged years
What do you choose
What do you in breathe?

Your desperate obsession
Was led by excessive
Self-control
Through dense vapour
Understand my unattainable
Asian soul

Black drops of poison
Became a remedy
The bitter smoke became my friend and foe

And twelve pipes later
No trace of ashes left
You will burn like fire in the wind
