Lyrics Translation Share

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children
About the world ending and the scale of my ambition
And how much is art really worth
The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most
But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings
You need to go to war to find material to sing
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing
My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape
Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take
What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?
I never knew my killer would be coming from within
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing
I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology
'Cause I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king
I am no mother, I am no bride
I am king

Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

And I was never as good as I always thought I was
But I knew how to dress it up
I was never satisfied, it never let me go
Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children

Discutimos na cozinha sobre ter filhos ou não

About the world ending and the scale of my ambition

Sobre o fim do mundo e a escala da minha ambição

And how much is art really worth

E quanto vale a arte

The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

A coisa em que você é melhor é a coisa que mais machuca

But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings

Mas você precisa do seu coração podre, sua dor deslumbrante como anéis de diamante

You need to go to war to find material to sing

Você precisa ir à guerra para encontrar material para cantar

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Eu preciso da minha coroa dourada de tristeza, minha espada sangrenta para balançar

My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Meus corredores vazios para ecoar com grande auto-mitologia

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape

Mas uma mulher é como uma criança que acredita em fantasias, sempre mudando de forma

Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take

Apenas quando você pensa que descobriu, algo novo começa a tomar

What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?

Que garras estranhas são essas arranhando minha pele?

I never knew my killer would be coming from within

Eu nunca soube que meu assassino viria de dentro

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Eu preciso da minha coroa dourada de tristeza, minha espada sangrenta para balançar

I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Eu preciso de meus corredores vazios para ecoar com grande auto-mitologia

'Cause I am no mother, I am no bride

Porque eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

I am no mother, I am no bride

Eu não sou mãe, não sou noiva

I am king

Eu sou rei

And I was never as good as I always thought I was

E eu nunca fui tão bom quanto sempre pensei que era

But I knew how to dress it up

Mas eu sabia como enfeitar

I was never satisfied, it never let me go

Eu nunca estava satisfeito, isso nunca desistiu de mim

Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

Apenas me arrastou pelo meu cabelo e voltou com o show

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children

Discutimos en la cocina sobre si tener hijos

About the world ending and the scale of my ambition

Sobre el mundo acabándose y la escala de mi ambición

And how much is art really worth

Y cuánto en realidad vale el arte

The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

La única cosa en que eres el mejor es lo que más duele

But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings

Pero necesitas tu podrido corazón, tu deslumbrante dolor como anillos de diamante

You need to go to war to find material to sing

Necesitas ir a la guerra para encontrar material por el cual cantar

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Necesito mi corona dorada de tristeza, mi espada sangrienta para ondear

My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Mis pasillos vacíos para hacer eco con grande mitología de mí misma

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape

Pero una mujer es transformadora, siempre cambiando de forma

Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take

Justo cuando piensas que lo tienes todo en orden, algo nuevo empieza a tomar

What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?

¿Qué extrañas garras son esas rascando mi piel?

I never knew my killer would be coming from within

Nunca supe que mi asesino viniera de adentro

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Necesito mi corona dorada de tristeza, mi espada sangrienta para ondear

I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Mis pasillos vacíos para hacer eco con grande mitología de mí misma

'Cause I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

I am no mother, I am no bride

No soy madre, no soy novia

I am king

Soy un rey

And I was never as good as I always thought I was

Y nunca fui tan buena como pensé que sería

But I knew how to dress it up

Pero supe cómo vestirlo bien

I was never satisfied, it never let me go

Nunca estuve satisfecha, y nunca me dejó ir

Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

Solamente me jaló del cabello, y de regreso al espectáculo

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children

Nous nous disputons dans la cuisine pour savoir si nous devons avoir des enfants

About the world ending and the scale of my ambition

De la fin du monde et de l'ampleur de mon ambition

And how much is art really worth

Et combien vaut vraiment l'art

The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

La chose pour laquelle tu es le plus doué est celle qui fait le plus mal

But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings

Mais tu as besoin de ton cœur pourri, de ta douleur éblouissante comme d'une bague en diamant

You need to go to war to find material to sing

Tu as besoin d'aller à la guerre pour trouver de quoi chanter

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

J'ai besoin de ma couronne dorée de chagrin, de mon épée sanglante à brandir

My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Mes couloirs vides pour résonner avec une grande mythologie de soi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape

Mais une femme est changeante, toujours en train de changer de forme

Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take

Juste quand vous pensez que vous avez tout compris, quelque chose de nouveau commence à prendre place

What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?

Quelles sont ces étranges griffes qui grattent ma peau?

I never knew my killer would be coming from within

Je n'aurais jamais cru que mon tueur viendrait de l'intérieur

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

J'ai besoin de ma couronne dorée de chagrin, de mon épée sanglante à brandir

I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Mes couloirs vides pour résonner avec une grande mythologie de soi

'Cause I am no mother, I am no bride

Car je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

I am no mother, I am no bride

Je ne suis pas une mère, je ne suis pas une épouse

I am king

Je suis un roi

And I was never as good as I always thought I was

Et je n'ai jamais été aussi bonne que je le pensais

But I knew how to dress it up

Mais je savais comment le masquer

I was never satisfied, it never let me go

Je n'étais jamais satisfaite, il ne m'a jamais laissé partir

Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

Il m'a juste tiré par les cheveux, et le spectacle a repris

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children

Wir streiten in der Küche darüber, ob wir Kinder haben wollen

About the world ending and the scale of my ambition

Über das Ende der Welt und das Ausmaß meiner Ambitionen

And how much is art really worth

Und wie viel Kunst wirklich wert ist

The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

Das, was du am besten kannst, ist das, was am meisten schmerzt

But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings

Aber du brauchst dein faules Herz, deinen blendenden Schmerz wie Diamantringe

You need to go to war to find material to sing

Du musst in den Krieg ziehen, um Material zum Singen zu finden

I am no mother, I am no bride

Ich bin keine Mutter, ich bin keine Braut

I am king

Ich bin König

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Ich brauche meine goldene Krone des Kummers, mein blutiges Schwert zum Schwingen

My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

Meine leeren Hallen, die mit großer Selbstmythologie widerhallen

I am no mother, I am no bride

Ich bin keine Mutter, ich bin keine Braut

I am king

Ich bin König

I am no mother, I am no bride

Ich bin keine Mutter, ich bin keine Braut

I am king

Ich bin König

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape

Aber eine Frau ist ein Wechselbalg, immer in Veränderung

Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take

Gerade wenn du denkst, du hast es herausgefunden, beginnt etwas Neues zu nehmen

What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?

Welche seltsamen Krallen sind das, die an meiner Haut kratzen?

I never knew my killer would be coming from within

Ich wusste nie, dass mein Mörder von innen kommen würde

I am no mother, I am no bride

Ich bin keine Mutter, ich bin keine Braut

I am king

Ich bin König

I am no mother, I am no bride

Ich bin keine Mutter, ich bin keine Braut

I am king

Ich bin König

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Ich brauche meine goldene Krone des Kummers, mein blutiges Schwert zum Schwingen

I am king

Ich bin König

And I was never as good as I always thought I was

Und ich war nie so gut, wie ich immer dachte, dass ich war

But I knew how to dress it up

Aber ich wusste, wie man es aufpeppt

I was never satisfied, it never let me go

Ich war nie zufrieden, es ließ mich nie los

Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

Es zog mich nur an den Haaren und weiter mit der Show

We argue in the kitchen about whether to have children

Litighiamo in cucina sull'avere figli o no

About the world ending and the scale of my ambition

Sul mondo che sta finendo e sulla portata della mia ambizione

And how much is art really worth

E quando valga realmente l'arte

The very thing you're best at is the thing that hurts the most

La cosa che ti riesce meglio è la cosa che fa più male

But you need your rotten heart, your dazzling pain like diamond rings

Ma hai bisogno del tuo cuore marcio, il tuo dolore abbagliante come anelli di diamanti

You need to go to war to find material to sing

Hai bisogno di andare in guerra per avere qualcosa da cantare

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Ho bisogno della mia corona d'oro del dolore, la mia spada insanguinata da brandire

My empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

I miei corridoi vuoti che echeggino la grande mitologia di me stesso

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

But a woman is a changeling, always shifting shape

Ma una donna è cangiante, di forma sempre mutevole

Just when you think you have it figured out, something new begins to take

Proprio quando credi di aver compreso, qualcosa di nuovo prende il sopravvento

What strange claws are these scratching at my skin?

Che strani artigli sono questi, che mi graffiano la pelle

I never knew my killer would be coming from within

Non ho mai pensato che il mio assassino possa venire dall'interno

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I need my golden crown of sorrow, my bloody sword to swing

Ho bisogno della mia corona d'oro del dolore, la mia spada insanguinata da brandire

I need my empty halls to echo with grand self-mythology

I miei corridoi vuoti che echeggino la grande mitologia di me stesso

'Cause I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

I am no mother, I am no bride

Non sono madre, non sono moglie

I am king

Sono Re

And I was never as good as I always thought I was

Non sono mai stata tanto brava quanto pensassi di essere

But I knew how to dress it up

Ma sapevo come mascherarlo

I was never satisfied, it never let me go

Non sono mai stata soddisfatta, non mi ha mai lasciata andare

Just dragged me by my hair and back on with the show

Mi ha solo trascinata per i capelli e di nuovo avanti per lo spettacolo

[Перевод песни Florence + the Machine – «King»]

[Куплет 1]
Мы спорим на кухне насчёт того, заводить ли детей
О приближающемся конце света, о масштабе моих амбиций
И о том, стоит ли искусство того
Ты лучше всего в том, что ужаснее всего тебя ранит
Но тебе нужны и твоё гнилое сердце и твоя сияющая боль, как бриллиантовые кольца
Тебе нужно пойти на войну, чтобы было, о чём петь
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король

[Припев]
Мне нужна моя золотая корона страданий, мне нужно размахивать окровавленным мечом
Мне нужны пустые залы, в которых отражалось бы эхо величайшей истории, которую я сама о себе придумала
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король

[Куплет 2]
Но женщина – перевёртыш, она всегда принимает новую форму
Каждый раз, когда ты думаешь, что разгадал её
И в ней появляется что-то новое
Что за странные когти царапают мою кожу?
Я не знала, что мой убийца появится изнутри
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король

[Припев]
Мне нужна моя золотая корона страданий, мне нужно размахивать окровавленным мечом
Мне нужны пустые залы, в которых отражалось бы эхо величайшей истории, которую я сама о себе придумала
Потому что я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король
Я – не мать, я – не невеста, я – король

[Бридж]
О
О
О, оу
О

[Аутро]
И я никогда не была такой хорошей, какой себя считала
Но я знала, как приукрасить правду
Мне никогда ничего не хватало, моя неудовлетворённость не отпускала меня
Просто тащила меня за волосы, и я снова выходила на сцену

[Στροφή 1]
Μαλώνουμε στην κουζίνα για το αν θα κάνουμε παιδιά
Σχετικά με το τέλος του κόσμου και την κλίμακα των φιλοδοξιών μου
Και πόσο πραγματικά αξίζει η τέχνη
Αυτό ακριβώς στο οποίο είσαι καλύτερος είναι αυτό που πονάει περισσότερο
Αλλά χρειάζεσαι τη σάπια καρδιά σου
Ο εκθαμβωτικός πόνος σου σαν διαμαντένια δαχτυλίδια
Πρέπει να πας στον πόλεμο για να βρεις υλικό να τραγουδήσεις
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς

[Ρεφρέν]
Χρειάζομαι το χρυσό μου στεφάνι της λύπης, θέλω το ματωμένο σπαθί μου να κουνιέται
Οι άδειες αίθουσες μου να αντηχούν με τη μεγαλειώδη αυτομυθολογία
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς

[Στροφή 2]
Αλλά μια γυναίκα είναι ένα μεταβαλλόμενο, πάντα μεταβαλλόμενο σχήμα
Ακριβώς όταν νομίζεις ότι το έχεις καταλάβει
Κάτι νέο αρχίζει να παίρνει
Τι περίεργα νύχια είναι αυτά, που ξύνουν στο δέρμα μου
Ποτέ δεν ήξερα ότι ο δολοφόνος μου θα ερχόταν από μέσα
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς

[Ρεφρέν]
Χρειάζομαι το χρυσό μου στεφάνι της λύπης, θέλω το ματωμένο σπαθί μου να κουνιέται
Χρειάζομαι τις άδειες αίθουσες μου να ηχούν με τη μεγαλειώδη αυτομυθολογία
Γιατί δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς
Δεν είμαι μητέρα, δεν είμαι νύφη, είμαι βασιλιάς

[Γέφυρα]
Ωχ
Ωωωωωωωωωωωωω
Ωχ, ωχ
Ωωωωωωωωωωωωωωω

[Outro]
Και ποτέ δεν ήμουν τόσο καλή όσο πάντα πίστευα ότι ήμουν
Αλλά ήξερα πώς να το ντύσω
Ποτέ δεν ήμουν ικανοποιημένος, δεν με άφησε ποτέ να φύγω
Απλώς με τράβηξε από τα μαλλιά και ξανάρχισε με την παράσταση
