01 - Emadan (Offer me)
Offer me, offer me
in a single pill
now that the odd has taken over my body
Can medicine cure absence?
Plural got sick
it’s not just about me.
And outside of the manufacturing system
sense, sense, what’s with you?
02 - Suhartzea (Ignition)
Do you recognize
the smell of the moment when ideas ignite?
Will we be aware
of the moment when ours will burn out?
Are you already aware of the moment
they will come and why?
Have they not yet realized
that we die sooner if we are left alone?
It may take a while but perhaps
before the fire is extinguished we may get to our place.
Will it be the same?
Will chance be merciful?
Do you already know how ideas grow
and why they are distorted and decompose
when we try to understand each other?
Do you already know how ideas grow and why
they slip from our lips
but we never hold their hands?
It may take a while
but before the fire is extinguished
let’s get to our place.
Perhaps the same
If chance is merciful.
03 - Beltzaile (Impostor)
Behind that modesty you admire, you
Perhaps a trace of what once you wanted to be?
I caress your forehead with my hand,
I have no more words now.
Don’t you worry, love
in that room where the air is heavy
there is something you have not seen.
You look inside with ungrateful eyes
as you look at the impostor who deserves nothing.
I comb your hair with my hand
I have no more words now.
Don’t you worry, love
in that room between your ribs
there is something you have not seen.
04 - Hondartza bat estolderietan (A beach in the sewers)
In this plain where it is spring night
my throat is snow and the moon is our prey.
The tangle of spirits of the dead sing
for us there is neither future nor warmth
no suffocating hunger to corrupt the body
no sterile passion to melt the brain,
with the water that our clavicles collect
it works the mil by crushing the hangovers.
From broken hourglasses,
a beach in the sewers.
The manifest reads: Burn the last piece!
Life is an indecipherable puzzle.
From broken hourglasses,
a beach in the sewers.
05 - Jaio aitzin (Before birth)
Someone before birth
has dreamed with the sky covered by buildings
beyond the windows spending the days watching
only the neighbor’s world
with a halogen tube as a roof.
And in the meantime, smoke from between the lips.
And in the meantime, smoke from the lungs.
Someone before living
has built between the brick walls
a fragile bridge to the outside
superb in our image and likeness
that while it is full of contradictions
it’s coming, it’s complete
that in each test advances a fourth of a step
closer, closer.
Come closer,
I don’t want gods,
nor here, not now,
I don’t believe in destiny.
Art was just a cruel lie
and I want to blame it for everything.
But before anyone dies
I can’t get it right
who I should point out as the killer.
06 - Historia (History)
You’ve assaulted that which was protected with a shield
in the essence of each question
with a luminous gust, peace was undone.
The story, just a moment
some effective drug
challenging counterfactual
something that never happened.
Useless faith.
each answer two questions:
the one you don’t remember
and the one you don’t want to know.
We met one winter
there was no piano in that place
strange loneliness
on a table
shady roofs
between short sentences.
07 - Sinkropredazioa (Synchropredation)
You are my excuse
to follow the brightness of the school of fish
to submit to the movements that fly
You are my excuse.
This summer night I’m not allowed, I’m not allowed
sleeping without getting lost in the fever
if only I had a cold heart
I would sleep soundly for centuries, without being able to wake up.
The blood moves through my veins rhythmically
the clouds may darken, but it does not rain
I have called them and we have reunited all the weak…
Synchropredation, synchropredation.
08 - Sua (Fire)
From the slippery horizon you inspect the nearby universe closely
looking for something else
as if it were the coins you find in phone booths
you always want something, even though
you are looking for a sparkle
surrounded by light
how can you see clearly fearing the dark?
And you daydream of travelling over the shooting stars
as you go down the road
and being able to concentrate as much
in that lie, in that lie
the seat belt is useless
at that speed.
You’ll go out just like the fire
but you are fire, after a long time.
09 - Junco (Reed)
The reed dreams that I want to sleep
on its deathbed not to discover
how its stems fall.
You never warn me when I try to escape
following my steps to find the place
that sounds like a deafening silence.
Night falls on this gray river
diluting darkness.
I feel good, don’t worry anymore
I just want to feel unreality.
10 - Panoptikoa (Panoptic)
Cell without number
of this panoptic prison.
For someone to watch
everything you ever dreamed of.
Calls without number
and the voice had told you nothing.
Return to the protection of the cell
open every week, seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
Unlocked cell
walls that will protect you
of everything on the outside.
They talk about catastrophe from the loudspeakers,
who will want to leave this shelter?
The days go and the days come
you are alone and I am alone
they are alone and no one is looking at them
but what if your eyes give us away?
The days go and the days come
you are alone and I am alone
they are alone and no one is looking at them
but what if I’m not able to not give you away?
The days go and the days come
you are alone and I am alone
we are alone and if no one is looking
will it be too late to escape?
Ezagun al dun
ideien suhartzearen usaina?
Ohartuko al gaitun
gureak kiskaltzen saiatzen direnean?
Hik ba al dakin jadanik
noiz etorriko ditunan eta zergatik.
Ez al ditun jada ohartu
hiltzen gaitunala errazago bakarrik?
Berandu baina baliteke inoiz
sua itzali aitzin gure lekura heltzea.
Leku bera ote?
Kasualitateak errukirik ote?
Hik ba al dakin jadanik
nola hazten diren ideiak eta zergatik
distortsionatzen zaizkinagun
eta usteltzen elkar ulertu nahirik?
Hik ba al dakin jadanik
nola hazten diren ideiak eta zergatik
ezpain artetik ihes egin
baina ez ditinagun heltzen sekula eskuetatik?
Berandu baina baliteke inoiz
sua itzali aitzin gure lekura heltzea.
Leku bera ote?
Kasualitateak errukirik ote?
Liluratu zaituen apaltasun horren atzean, zu
izan nahi zenuen horren memoria printza bat ote?
Eskuaz adatsa orraztu dizut,
ez dut gehiago hitzik jada.
Lasai egon laztan,
airea pisu den gela horretan bada
ikusi ez duzun zerbait.
Esker gaiztoko begiekin so zara barnera
ezer merezi ez duen beltzailea bezala.
Eskuaz kopeta oratu dizut,
ez dut gehiago hitzik jada.
Lasai egon laztan,
saihetsen arteko gela horretan bada
ikusi ez duzun zerbait.
04 - Hondartza bat estolderietan
Udaberri gau den lautada honetan
zintzurra elur dut, ilargia gure preso.
Kantuan ari da hilen arima amarauna
guretzat ez dago ez gerorik, ez bero
gorputza apurtzen duen sargori goserik,
garuna isurtzen duen grina antzurik,
lepauztaietan biltzen zaigun uraz
lanean da errota ehotuz biharamunak.
Hondarrezko erloju apurtuetatik
Hondartza bat estolderietan.
Manifestuak dio: “Erre azken pieza!”
Ezin ebatzizko puzzlea da bizitza.
Hondarrezko erloju apurtuetatik
Hondartza bat estolderietan.
Jaio aitzin inork
amestu al zuen eraikinek estalita zerua
leihotik harago soilik auzoen munduari begira
igaroko zituela egunak,
hodi fluoreszente bat aterpe duen artean.
Bitartean, ezpainetatik kea.
Bitartean, biriketatik kea.
Bizi aitzin inork
eraiki al du adreiluzko murru artetik kanpora
zubi bat hauskorra, gure irudira harroa
kontraesanez gainezka eginaz batera
hurbiltzen dena, osatzen dena
dema bakoitzean pauso laurdenaz
gertuago, gertuago.
Gertuago hator
ez diat jainkorik nahi
ez hemen eta ez orain
patuan sinesterik ez diat.
Artea gezur krudel huan
dena egotzi nahi zioat,
baina hil aitzin nola jakin
hiltzaile nori iritzi?
Erantzun bakoitzaren mamian ezkutuz
babesten zen hari eraso diozu
argi bolada bat, deuseztatu da bakea.
Historia, une bat
eraginkorra den drogaren bat
desafiozko kontrafaktualak
inoiz jazo ez zen zerbait.
Fedea, antzua.
Erantzun bakoitzak galdera bi:
oroitzen ez duzuna
eta ezagutu nahi ez duzun hori.
Negu batez topatu ginen
pianorik han ez zegoen.
Bakardade arrotza
mahai gainean.
Teilatu arre
esaldi motzak.
07 - Sinkropredazioa
Nire aitzakia haiz
arrain sarda horren distirari jarraitzeko
hegan egiten duten mugimenduei men egiteko
nire aitzakia haiz.
Udako gau honek ez dit uzten, ez dit uzten
sukarretan galdu gabe lo egiten, lo egiten
bihotza hotz izango banu, gutxienez
lo sakon egingo nuke, hainbat mendez, esnatzerik ez!
Odola erritmikoki mugitzen zait zainetan
hodeiak belztu litezke, baina euririk ez da
hots egin diet eta ahuldade denak batu egin gara: sinkropredazioa, sinkropredazioa.
08 - Sua
Zerumuga labainkorretik unibertso hurbila
miatzen ari haiz adi-adi, beste zerbaiten bila
telefono kabinetako txanponak bailiran
beti zerbait desio dun baina
izpi baten xerka habil
argiaz inguraturik
ilunaren beldur, nola ikusi argi?
Eta izar loketan bidaiatuko huala amesten dun esna
errepidean hoanean.
Eta nola gai haizen hain sakon kontzentratzeko
gezur horretan, gezur horretan.
Autoko uhala, hutsala
abiadura horretan.
Iraungiko haiz, sua bezala
baina sua haiz, aspaldi ez bezala.
09 - Junco (Ihia -originala gaztelaniaz-)
Ihiak amets du lo hartu nahi dudala
haren hil hurrenean ikus ez ditzadan
haren zurtoinak jausten.
Deus ez didazu esaten ihesari ematean
nire pausoen atzetik etortzen zara
isiltasun bortitzeko leku horretara
isiltasuna darion.
Gaua dator ibai gris honetara
diluitu du iluntasuna
ni ongi naiz, zu ez zaitez kezka
soilik nahi dut errealitate eza.
10 - Panoptikoa
Zenbakirik gabeko zelda
espetxe panoptiko honetan.
Inoiz amestu duzun dena
inork zelata dezan.
Zenbakirik gabeko deiak
eta ahotsak ez dizu deus esan.
Zatoz berriz zeldaren babesera
astero, zazpi egun, hogeita lau orduz zabalik da.
Sarrailarik gabeko zelda
kanpoan den guztiaz babestuko zaituzten paretak.
Hondamendia bozgorailuetan,
nork nahiko du bada gordelekutik atera?
Egunak joan eta egunak etorri
bakarrik zaude, bakarrik naiz
bakarrik dira eta ez da inor begira
baina zer zure begiak salatari badira.
Egunak joan eta egunak etorri
bakarrik zaude, bakarrik naiz
bakarrik dira eta ez da inor begira
baina zer zu ez salatzeko ni ez banaiz gai.
Egunak joan eta egunak etorri
bakarrik zaude, bakarrik naiz
bakarrik gara eta inor begira ez bada
ihes egiteko izanen al da garaiz.
