Belly Blue
04:07

I licked your belly button big blue sea
it’s you who conceived me
you dripped and dropped me
you spat me out
I wished that one day I would make you proud
You washed, you whispered, you softly wept
and when you made me, my hair you kept
You gently rocked it
like a rocking chair
so vast and wavy was my green hair
But most my body parts I kept for myself
I keep them safely in a skeleton shelf
in jars and pots with paper signs
saying these are fragile
but these are fine

Soy la levadura de mis sueños
Soy las cosquillas de mis cielos
Con la lluvia y el viento
Que cantan con mi corazón
Soy la levadura de mis sueños
Soy las cosquillas de tu piel
Porque no
Con la luz y la sombra
Con un abrazo de mi niña
Pequeña pequeña soy (4x)
En la mar la mar la mar
Que mueve mueve mueve
Encontrar -contrar -contrar
Quién es triste triste triste
Con la mar la mar la mar
Mueves mueves mueves
Sin amar amar amar
Porque duele duele duele
Encontrar -contrar contraer
La tristeza tersa tersa
Sin sabor sabor sabor
Porque vives
Dale damelo dale tu movimiento (2x)
A la vida
Soy

Little Poets
03:48

Says the rose to the park:
“Will you miss me when it’s dark?”
Says the pepper to the salt:
“Will you still love me when I’m grey and old?”
Chorus:
Little poets in my mind
they say bullshit all the time
Little poets in my mind
Says the human to the fly:
“Will you cry when I die?”
Says the dust to the dust, to the dust:
“Do we accumulate fast enough?”
Says the lightbulb to the moth:
“Will you still visit when I'm off?”
Says the whisky to the wine:
“Why is your glass taller than mine?”
Chorus
“Will you kiss me when I’m dry?”
Says the mayo to the fry
Says the paper to the pen:
“Can we start all over again?”
Chorus (2x)

Naranjos

Nació entre naranjos y gaviotas
Entre campos y las rocas
Que se sientan en el horizonte
Nació entre pinos, penas y montes
Vivió entre el asfalto y farolas
Entre lluvias y ventolas
Que se pierden por la carretera
Nació entra piel huesos y venas
Je suis née d'un amour éphémère
Valsant entre deux juiv(f)es errant(e)s
L'océan raconte de nos terres
Des histoires, des temps, d'exil de prières, d'espoir et de chant
Ase imanu tzedaka va khesed (2x)
ve oshieynu

Lonely Bird
04:33
|
|||
|
It’s time to pick up the pen, I shall paint again
and save the errands for later
At night while everyone’s asleep except me
who tries to flee to the realm of imagination:
A nation without borders
where orders are replaced by rights
by fundamental sighs of pleasure
signs of treasuring the female fun
the fantasies undone and unwoven
outspoken and respected
respect. To all of that
to human flesh
to foreign faces
to flavorful differences
and so called ‘races’
To all of that
When the lonely bird is singing down the river
and the other sister birds are singing down the sea
I start to see that my sorrows disappear (2x)
Now, what’s the point of picking up the pen
of writing out my sentiment
my pain, my rage for this populist game
played in our name
(When the lonely bird is singing down the river)
Now, what’s the point of picking up the pen
of writing out my sentiment, my pain my rage
(When the lonely bird)
People choosing hateful face
fascist gazes
for freedom and nations?
When the lonely bird is singing down the river
and the other sister birds are singing down the sea
I start to see that my sorrows disappear

Radikale Ruhe

Ich will
einfach nur schlafen.
Schlafen,
mitten am Tag schlafen.
Heute
muss man auf mich warten.
Warten,
mitten am Tag warten.
Sonne!
Kannst du mich braten?
Braten,
mitten am Tag braten.

Rain and Sun

I think you should know
I like to overflow
beware
emotional fragility starts here
no fear
just pleasure
no pressure to perform
I herewith inform
the world that I'm me
as long as I breathe I'll be me
because sun and rain are different yet the same (2x)
they shine from the skies and pour on our spines
they do and you do too
and I'll still be me
with no edges but a clear territory
your majesty alterity
may enter here
with all your beauty
will we connect, finally?
warm greetings,
yours sincerely
me
I don’t feel at home yet
in the house where I’m staying
the body that’s aching for more

Au Revoir
02:49
|

|
Je me dois de te dire au revoir
Au delà de mes petits remparts
Je me dis qu’il n’est jamais trop tard
Pour verser toutes les larmes du placard (2x)
L’horizon se fait loin et l’orage tonne
Brume sur le chemin day day day
Quand je me souviens puis doucement pardonne
Une chanson me vient day day day
Je me vois dans les flaques du hasard
Mélodies mêlant rêves et cauchemars
Je te crois au fin fond du trou noir
Quelle surprise de t’y voir si hagard
Quand tu t’en vas au loin
Et que tu m’abandonnes
Ça je connais bien day day day
Quand l’aube revient
La rosée frissonne
Coule le chemin
Quand tu t’en vas au loin
Et que tu m’abandonnes
Ça je connais bien day day day
Quand l’aube revient
La rosée frissonne
Une chanson me vient day day day
Day day day day day day day day day
We are going to die we are going to die
Today or tomorrow life is what we borrow
We are going to die

Run
03:12
|

|
I am afraid of the dark
I am afraid of that first spark
of fire and of love when it begins
you know it shivers
I am afraid of men at night
but also of them in the bright sunlight
sometimes I'm even afraid of myself
so I sing
I sing when I’m sad
I sing when I’m mad
I sing to forget and remember what's real
to feel alive
I sing when there's nothing else to do
nothing else to say
but if my voice won't come out
then I dance
I dance when there's no choice
I dance when there's no voice
I dance 'cause I need to feel my heart beat
and what about you?
I mostly dance when I'm alone
but sometimes I try to dance with you
and then my feet get out of control
and I fear and so I run

Tourbillon
04:05
|

|
Des milliers d’étincelles se transforment en orgasme
Magie noire miroirs les nuages épars
Se dissipent
Douceur ferveur me noient dans le bon
Lâchés les ballons tourbillonnent dans le vent
Vivante tornade de tendresse
Tout chante puissante paresse
Lentement la chaleur se fait tangible
Et le temps s’arrête dans l’indicible
Coucher avec toi j’aime coucher avec toi (2x)
T’aimer dans les bois j’aime coucher avec toi
Toucher tes émois te goûter à petits pas
Rigoler tout bas j’aime loucher quand tu me vois
Mouiller tous les draps j’aime lécher des avant-bras
Coucher avec moi j’aime coucher avec moi
Coucher avec toi j’aime coucher avec toi/moi

El Calentamiento

El sol va por la calle
El sol ya no hay quien lo calle
ni bajo el agua tan rica y fresquita
esque no hay quien lo aguanto
El sol también va en coche
de dia, y hasta de noche
con la radio a tope y cantando
y yo escuchándolo
Los grillos le hacen los coros
parecen sus loros
y gritan por gritar
hablan por los codos
pero de todos modos habrá que aguantarlos
Todos los amantes
de ahora y de antes
conocen su son
sudando enteros sus cuerpos
tan solo los muertos se salvan del sol
El sol va por la calle
El sol ya no hay quien lo calle
ni bajo el agua tan rica y fresquita
esque no hay quien lo aguante

Ballaké Sissoko is my favorite kora player, and following his musical life has led me to some of my most beloved musical discoveries. This latest release is every bit as gorgeous as all of his prior work. And it is so clear how he brings the best out of each of his collaborators.
