A Possession's Story
More than one year passed since that incredible afternoon
in February, 2003, when the Daimon visited me. It was
a Sunday and I wasn't able to concentrate on my work, sensing a subtle and
undefined pull into another direction. I had recently finished downloading all
the "Am sä mä întorc bärbat" songs, my
BSS had done the same, and I used to explain her about the subject and content
of the album. So, that Sunday afternoon, unable to do anything else, a decided
to translate for her, in an easy and simple form, the main fragments of the
album, for a better understanding.
Till then, I had translated only two of the Vama Veche songs: "Hotel Cismigiu" (easy enough) and "Armata" (not quite as easy...).
It was 15:15 p.m., February 9, 2003.
Less than three hours later, at 18:12 p.m., the whole of "A.S.M.I.B."
had turned into "I.W.R.A.M." - "I Will Return A Man".
Despite my initial resolve, once I had started, I could
never stop. The Daimon had gotten me in his clutches.
One stanza led to another, one song to another, I was translating possessed by
an insane frenzy, also stimulated by the amazing speed and insp 17517i815r iration
governing my work. Around 16:30, the whole album had been transcribed into
English, in a rough draft, but also containing the first suggestions of
accurate rhyme and rhythm, spontaneously sketched during that first all-over.
So, in the second part of the interval, I started to review all the songs,
arranging better and better the poetical features. At 18:12, the overall form
was "presentable"; all the rhymes were correct, and the rhythm
acceptable, although still limping here and there. Enough to
send it that night to BSS and offer her the first real view inside Andrei Gavrilä's tragedy.
Next day, I returned to the text and reviewed it again,
from start to finish, improving the translation further.
That whole week, I did the same.
The first version that satisfied me enough (Friday,
February 14, 2003) was posted into a special topic in the Vama
Veche Discussion Board of my own community, the Pitbull's Realm. Those of the VV-Forumards who joined or at least visited the Realm know it
very well.
Since then, again and again, from time to time I returned
to "I.W.R.A.M.", always finding other and other details needing
further improvement.
By the end of May, 2003, following my various postings in
English into the VV-Forum, VNT invited me to translate the
"Epilogue" into English - not knowing that the feat was already
done! I still have vivid in mind that wonderful afternoon when BSS called me
from Holland, to excitedly announce me that something great seemed to have been
posted in the Forum, appearing that V.V. offered me to work! Although still in
"expensive time" (early evening), I logged in and saw VNT's offer.
That night and yhe next day, I
reviewed the "Epilogue" and perfected even more the
translation.
Also, Floydman and Cow soon
offered their own versions, markedly different of mine, but as well done - Cow's seeming to me even better in certain points. All in
all, I appreciate that the three existing English versions of the "Epilogue"
are of the same quality.
A few days later, the 4 June "I.W.R.A.M."
was performed. For the first time, we met Tudor, who already knew about Pitbull's translation of the album. Although none of our
English "Epilogues" was accepted, that was the beginning of
the friendship that was to evolve in the following months, leading to the
eventful "I.W.R.A.M." performance in October 18 and my Biblical
chronicle about it, then to the positively fateful night in "Backstage"
and, from there, to the Moment of Grace in "Oasis".
These days, more than one year later, I reviewed again
the "I.W.R.A.M." translation and, to my surprise, AGAIN I discovered
innumerable lyrics prone to improvement in English. The translation made a new
leap toward the perfection that I think it will never fully achieve.
In this form, I deem it fit to be shared to all the Forumards, including those who, having joined the Forum
later, or for various other reasons, never visited the Pitbull's
Realm.
So, here is the famous "I.W.R.A.M." -
"I Will Return A Man", the English version of our seminal
"Am sä mä întorc bärbat" that got to
be known by all in the abbreviated form "A.S.M.I.B.". Enjoy it
and feel free to criticise as much and serious at
possible - it will lead only to ever better and better results. I WILL RETURN A MAN Overture Prologue
One more instant till the bullet my right temple
will caress,
Silent and sad, my only friend waits in the barrel. One
says
That in such moments you can view your life whole.
I'll close my eyes, to see this dumb movie once for all.
One more instant till the bullet my right temple
will caress.
Mother smiles, I'll be born and I'll cry and I'll shout,
make a mess.
My knee is bleeding, it's the first school day, I have a
bump,
Teach asks me: one apple plus one pear? I reply: make a stump.
One more instant till the bullet my right temple
will caress.
It's my birthday, on my bed, the strings and guitar wait, no less.
Three hoodlums demand dough, fall in night punches hard,
heavy fisters,
Have a date, drink a soda, we stroll - coupl'of whispers
One more instant till the bullet my right temple
will caress.
My lips, and her skin, our body, we are speared by a
thrill,
.speared by a thrill,
Passed my prom with a seven, glad I am, the bottle I
kill,
On the table, a signed paper lays still, mother cries,
the army calls shrill!
On the table, a signed paper lays still, mother cries,
the army calls shrill!!
On the table, a signed paper lays still, mother cries,
the army calls shrill!!!
On the table, a signed paper lays still, mother cries,
the army calls shrill!
On the table, a signed paper lays still, mother cries.
One friend:
Hey, hey brothers, hey brothers, what shall we do with the army, chums?
Another friend: Come one, leave it, push a beer here!
Another friend: Guys, they sent to me a paper, but
I won't go, man.
Another friend: Me, I paid five hun' bucks, my word!
Another friend: Five hun' bucks, man?!?
The girls: Don' take away our boooys,
don' take away our boooys, don' take away our boooys.!
One friend: Getutza, gimme a ciggie!
Another friend: Gotta
lot o' beer to drink, got gurls to solve, I don't go
to have those ones make a fool of me!
Another friend: Right!
One girl: C'mon, I'll solve you, man!
Andrei: Dude, I admit, I'm the dumb one. I'm
going, guys.
One friend: Are you nuts.?
Another friend: Leave that freaking Army alone,
let's sing somethin'!
Another friend: Hey, Andrei!
One girl: Andrei!
All: Andrei!
One friend: C'mon, dude, sing for us that song
that you made!
Andrei: Nah, man, it's not big deal!
Another friend: C'mon, chum, "I'm only eighteen"!
All: "I'm only eighteen,
Crazy am, I'm in love, and I have no green!"
18 Years
I am only eighteen,
Crazy am, in love, I have no green!
No one stands in my way,
I have my path there,
It's one-way road
That for sure will lead me somewhere.
The prom, easily I passed,
I did cheat at sports, also at maths.
School is over and done,
Long live freedom, chaps,
College now, perhaps,
Funny night-life, no mishaps!
Refrain:
My dreams are daring,
They will fulfill
Just like that, in a blink!
I deeply breathe love,
I eat and drink love,
I
have for all, goes over the brink.
No one and nothing
Prevents me screaming
So
loud and high: YES, HAPPY I AM!!!
Don't teach me, there's no need,
Time just a needle is,
And
us, inside, we're the thread.
The day when I saw you,
My
heart made a leap up to my throat
And back down never got.
It is beating up there,
And the moment we kiss,
Five beats faster and one's amiss.
Don't need anything else,
Your hair and green eyes are just enough.
Stand still! Stay and don't move!
This is our pic,
February 28,
At
the subway station, we're in looooooove!
Ref:
My dreams are daring,
They will fulfill
Just like that, in a blink!
I deeply breathe love,
I eat and drink love,
I

No one and nothing
Prevents me screaming
So
loud and high: YES, HAPPY I AM!!!
Don't teach me, there's no need,
Time just a needle is,
And
us, inside, we're the thread.
Just for us, one Thursday,
Time at a standstill will freeze and stay
And
a prank we will play,
Leaving him free again to go his way
Only when we'll be to part away!
Oh, World, how I love you!
My soul is a bomb, it's poised to blow!
Dreams in a myriad parts,
I give them to you,
Make them right and true,
Cause my dream I'm living right now!

Chorus:
Your dream closed to end, my son
A
grown man you must become!
Now your mind will become tough!
Dreams are childish, life is rough!
You will learn patient to stay,
You will learn honor and right.
We will teach you to obey,
We will teach you how to fight.
Piece of cake now this won't be
But
you'll turn a man, you'll see!
You will find what's liberty,
Be a human, true and free!

This train's too slow, what the heck,
Crawls to nowhere land,
I still have hair on my neck,
Damn that barber's hand!
On my wooden case I scratch
With a knife, this date:
When I had a train to catch,
Go and meet my fate.
Lots'a vodka, cigarettes,
And
salami, bread.
A guitar and no regrets,
Party goes ahead!
"One year's quickly done - and cheers!"
At my right is said.
"The year passes as it cares",
Laughs another mate.
(I Will Return A Man - fragment)
The train was to go,
His mom was crying low,
"Mother, don't cry, I will return a man!"
He told her so.
"Don't be a fool,
Don't ever fight with them,
I want you back home to come whole!"
He didn't hear...
Boys in the train: Come on, mother, to
see me, sonny soldier is,
Na-na-na-na-na-na. crawling on

One boy: What's up, Andrei, are you scared, man?
Andrei: Nope, dude, but ain't

Another boy: Big deal, one year!
Another boy: Vodka, spritzer

The Non-Commissioned Officer (Sergeant Major):
Hell-LO! Listen the command
here! Aligned by height at the green hedge! Make it FAST! There you GO! In
order, you deliver your personal effects, then you
receive your uniform! From today on, you'll become soldiers of our homeland! The Barracks
The Non-Commissioned Officer (Sergeant Major):
Don't move, jerk, shut up and still you stand!
For one year, your life is in my hand!
You can move just at my order, sod.
You can call me by name: that's God.
Your brains I'll squeeze out of you, by gosh!
Your hearts in the mud I'll gladly wash!
I won't let you ever love, feel free,
Broken soldiers are no use to me.
Andrei:
I can't see why do you shout.
I heard what you spoke.
And I don't think that love means
Only to be broke.
God is God - an officer,
Surely, He is not!
My life is safe in His hand
That's my hope and thought.
The Officer:
Your kind eyes are prompting me to spit,
Long ago your ma the nest did quit!
Come to me, I'll teach you how to fly,
Your sun's hidden in the clouds, too high!
Andrei:
Mom has taught me how to fly,
Long before you tried.
The son breaks the clouds to shine,
And
spread on its light.

Musta do all he's wantin',
Soldier, you are not allowed to dream!
Now you are all the same.
Andrei:
My dreams, I won't give to you,
You
can't take them on.
Dreaming is my world, while yours
Is only the gun.
My dreams, I won't give to you,
You

Dreaming is my world, while yours
Is only the gun.
Is only the gun.
The gun.

I dream. I dream. I dream. I dream.

Dreaming is my world, while yours is only the gun.
God is God - an officer, surely, He is not!
My life is safe in HDrill
The Officer:
All that you learned at home is wrong and bad
Here your ma and pa are as good as dead,
A head in your mouth is all you will get,
Your blood makes me crave for much more and yet!
Look at this one, how he makes fools of you!
For his fault you will have to pay all, too!
Ten push-ups, he lies flat in this mud-sea.
In the johns, I want you to brew my tea!
Refrain (A Soldier and the Officer):
"Officer, Sir, I don't understand..."
"Creep, did I permit you now to talk?
From now on, I am the one who asks,
You

Yes, execute!!

You fell down before me? And so what?
You spit blood, feel weaken? And so

My stomach is clenching, I feel like a ghoul,
My heart's loudly screaming, stop there, read no more,
It's much too late now, I can't stop anymore,
The world's turning madly, my eyes are so sore.

My lips will stroke and they will fondle you
Where you don't ever think to even think,
I'll show you two breasts as you never saw,
Your mouth will water, laying lost in thought.
Around your body I will wrap myself,
And with a kiss I'll fiercely rip you out.
And step by step you won't bear anymore,
Together with me on the ground you'll fall,
And for one hour's quarter you'll forget
About all our life, whole.
So I allow to give me your love, blind,
Still, no one else wants it, I know and say,
And in the end, one more thing keep in mind:
Here, in my nest, for love you have to pay.

Andrei Alone
Bit by bit, I start to lose my mind
My
gaze lays frozen in still points
Eight years seem to have passed, not just eight months
Since I used to shout: "I am only eighteeeen,
Crazy am, in love, I have no green!"
For so long I ceased to dream that I can fly
And I don't quite know anymore where is the sea and
what's its color
There are so many words that I forgot:
What means a rose, or music, what means beach...
But in the slut's eyes that yesterday I met,
I saw the way to the sea...

Fifteen miles or more we'll run through mud,

Don't stain one bed, or else I'll kill you all!
We all feel all right,

gaze up and bright!
Barely one month or two has passed away
We all feel all right,
Our gaze up and bright!
And all my soldiers looks as
born again!
We all feel all right,
Our
gaze up and bright!
The stare is fixed, the smile an inch
don't stir,
We all feel all right,
Our gaze up and bright!
This is my company, Colonel, Sir!
We all feel all right,
Our
gaze up and bright!
Chorus:
We are all together good to fight,
Motherland we will defend all right,
Deathly foe we never lose from sight,
Head right up! On we go!
The Romanian Army is my Mother, so,
My Father and God's the Officer,
My land to protect today I swear
Before all those who are to my heart so dear!
Andrei:
I miss the sea. What I like at the sea, is that you're always clean. The sea
cleanses you.
The Whore: And you are salty, true? She's washing
you and salting you.
Andrei: Did you ever go to the sea-side?
The Whore: No, but I dreamed I did. One day, a bit
of sand got into my eyes and I cried all day long.
Andrei: And when you got
into the water, it passed away.
The Whore: Yeah, and I dreamed about a small straw
cottage on the beach, where I'll live by summer and by winter too.
Andrei: And is there anybody else inside?
The Whore: There's only the two of us. Oh. And the sea.
Andrei: And doesn't the
water flood the cottage, when it's stormy?
The Whore: Nope. When it's stormy, it's us who get
into the water and stroll over the waves. Love
Andrei: I kiss you trembling like a lousy
one.
The Whore: I seek protection from your
upper lip.
Andrei: And from your breast I can't take
off my hand.
The Whore: My breast is joyful, come on,
look at it!
.look at it!
.look at it!
Andrei:
In your eyes the sea does laugh,
In
your eyes it's snowing tough,
The sun in your eyes shines on,
There I see the horizon.
(Excluded from the final version)
The soldier in me will leave as a ghoul,
And
make room for the love from your soul.
Andrei: Is it true that you will help me to
escape this pain?
The Whore: My body is your highway to
forever.
Andrei: Is it true that you will help me
dream again?
The Whore: My eyes will dream you for now
and ever!
.and ever!
.and ever!
.and ever!
.and ever!
Andrei:
In your eyes I live and shout,
With my troll's big mouth and snout,
In your eyes I dream the breath
Of a warm night in the eighth...
Andrei: Forgive me, for me, love has turned
amiss,
The Whore: I forgot it too, or never knew
for sure,
Andrei: They turned me into a
soldier with a crooked kiss,
The Whore: Your eyes, instead, are clear
and pure.
.clear and pure.
.clear and pure.
.clear and pure.
.clear and pure.
Andrei:
In your eyes there is the wind
Carrying me out of my mind
Towards a thoughtless far place,
Towards the Love's high fortress.
Towards the Love's high fortress.
Towards.
heard
about a slut,
They say she's fucking great.
It seems that's my dear soldier who's keeping her by
right.
I heard there's a great love there, between them two,
I should pay her a visit, with my trousers down, too.
He-he-he-he-he.!
How can he be a better lay than me? Eh?
How can he be a better lay than me??
How can he be a better lay than me??? Huh?!?!?! The Rape (The Officer's Song)
I was too once a youth in love and without guile,
But that dumb bitch was cheating on me with a smile,
My
schoolmates used to say I had my head too big,
They called me "Bucket-Son"!
And always kicked my ass, day off, day on and on.
And always kicked my ass, day off, day on and on.
Just once I didn't know how's nine by six,
I said it's sixty-four.
They laughed at me one whole school and four classes
more!
But no one cared to tell me what's the
answer true!
But no one cared to tell me what's the
answer true!
That's fifty-four!
Ref. (The Officer):
And then, I said:
Oh, I'll grow up, just wait!
And how I'll kick your ass,
And how I'll make you shake,
And make you all multiply sectors and guards,
.sectors and guards!
.sectors and guards!
Sectors - and - guards...!!!
The Officer and the Chorus:
"And then, I said:"
"You said, you said:"
"Oh, I'll grow up, just wait!"
"Oh, you'll grow up.!"
"And how I'll kick your ass"
"And how you'll kick their ass."
"and how I'll make you shake,
And make you all multiply sectors and guards,
.sectors and guards!
.sectors and guards!
.sectors and guards!
.sectors and guards!
Sectors - and - guards...!!!
SECTORS - AND - GUARDS...!!!
And the truth will be every time. anoooooooooooooooooooooooooother.!!!
Huh. ehh. ohhh. brahhh.!
As for love and fulfilled dreams...
Hey! Miss Whore! Anybody home?
Yep?
Here I come to seek my justice, with a high-class rape!
I Will Return a Man
(fragment
The days were crawling ever slow and hard,
He took to drink...
Of fright, he used to whistle, in the guard
Ever so often, all alone, he cried...
With frozen hands, the shells he kept searching in the
snow
And he had ceased to feel his legs from the knees
below...
Only a heat so fierce engulfed his body...!
"I feel I lose my mind, this mask does never give a
break!!!
I have enough of slaps and kicks, of crawl and shake!!!
Oh, mother, why don't you come to help me out?"
"Crawl, soldier!"
"Oh God, oh Lord, please, don't leave me when I stand
guard!
Don't let me pull the trigger or to fall asleep!
And tell me how long I still have to go, Lord!"
Hey, for me, just one year isn't long!
Hey, for me, just one year isn't long!
I will return a man!
I will return a man!
I will return a man!
That day, his mates asked him:
"Wassup with you? A little pale
you look..."
"I do feel well!"
But glassy were his eyes,
When thinking that he's gonna
be in guard again...
Next day.
One more instant till the bullet my right temple will
caress.
Epilogue
To all those who do believe that this world by love will
escape hell
To all those who do believe that Love will make a change
for well,
We will sing, we will sing, this we have to tell:
No one will explain to you what Love is all about,
It's by yourself that, in a summer day, you'll find this
out,
And then do not forget that you have your heart.
Good and Evil around you will play and dance at will,
And
this living-dead world your love will attempt to steal.
Never should you forget your heart's there to heal.
To all those who do believe that Dreams are an immortal
sort,
To all those who know that Hatred babies can't bring
forth,
We will sing, we will sing, we will tell what's worth:
No one will explain to you what Love is all about,
It's by yourself that, in a summer day, you'll find this
out,
And then do not forget that you have your heart.
Good and Evil around you will play and dance at will,
And
this living-dead world your love will attempt to steal.
Never should you forget your heart's there to heal.
No one will explain to you what Love is all about,
It's by yourself that, in a summer day, you'll find this out,
And then do not forget that you have your heart.
Good and Evil around you will play and dance at will,
And
this living-dead world your love will attempt to steal.
Never should you forget your heart's there to heal.
No one will explain to you what Love is all about,
It's by yourself that, in a summer day, you'll find this out,
And then do not forget that you have your heart
Never should - never should - you
forget - you forget - that you have your heart.
Never should.
You forget.
