Horonan-Tsary
Tononkira
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
Envious of the glimmer of hope
– Mialona ny famirapiratry ny fanantenana
Gives me a break from feeling alone
– Manome ahy fiatoana amin’ny fahatsapana ho irery
Gives me a moment out of the ego
– Manome ahy fotoana kely amin’ny ego
I used to feel so invincible
– Nahatsapa ho tsy azo resena aho taloha
I used to feel there was a world worth dreamin’ of
– Tsapako fa nisy tontolo iray mendrika ho nofinofy
Back in the Gasworks, screamin’ the song
– Miverina Any Amin’ny Orinasa Mpamokatra Entona, miantsoantso ny hira
Just the beauty of youth would quell my aching heart
– Ny hatsaran’ny fahatanorana fotsiny no hanafoana ny foko marary
Oh, I feel so dark rememberin’
– Oh, mahatsiaro ho maizina be aho mahatsiaro
Oh, my heart, I feel so dark rememberin’
– Oh, ny foko, mahatsiaro tena ho maizina aho
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
Everybody on the treadmill, runnin’
– Ny olona rehetra ao amin’ny treadmill,mihazakazaka
Under the billboards, out of the heat
– Eo ambanin’ny takelaka fanaovana dokambarotra, tsy misy hafanana
Somebody’s darling’s on the street tonight
– Misy olona malala eny an dalambe anio alina
Oh, I can’t stop runnin’
– Oh, tsy afaka mijanona mihazakazaka aho
I see the whole town fall
– Hitako ny fahalavoan’ny tanàna iray manontolo
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
(Ooh-ooh)
– (Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
– (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
I came back home after seven years
– Niverina nody aho rehefa afaka fito taona
Wide awake, tracing tracks of her tears
– Mifohaza be, manara – maso ny ranomasony
Cornered the nurse to get the gist of it
– Nanenjika ilay mpitsabo mpanampy mba hahazoany ny votoatiny
I promised her I’d get her out of the care home
– Nampanantena azy aho fa hamoaka azy hiala ny trano fitaizana
The place was fallin’ to bits
– Nianjera tamin’ny sombintsombiny ilay toerana
Understaffed and overruled by callous hands
– Tsy ampy mpiasa ary tsy eken’ny tanana tsy misy fihetseham po
The poor nurse was around the clock
– Tsy nitsahatra niasa ilay mpitsabo mpanampy mahantra
And the beauty of youth had left my breaking heart
– Ary ny hakanton’ny fahatanorana dia namela ny foko torotoro
But it wasn’t hard when you love someone
– Saingy tsy sarotra izany rehefa tia olona ianao
Oh, I stayed all night till you left this life ’cause that’s just love
– Oh, nijanona nandritra ny alina aho mandra – pialanao tamin’ity fiainana ity satria fitiavana fotsiny izany
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
Everybody on the treadmill, runnin’
– Ny olona rehetra ao amin’ny treadmill,mihazakazaka
Under the billboards, out of the heat
– Eo ambanin’ny takelaka fanaovana dokambarotra, tsy misy hafanana
Somebody’s darling’s on the street tonight
– Misy olona malala eny an dalambe anio alina
Oh, I can’t stop runnin’
– Oh, tsy afaka mijanona mihazakazaka aho
I see the whole town fall
– Hitako ny fahalavoan’ny tanàna iray manontolo
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
Above the rain-soaked Garden of Remembrance
– Ambonin’ny Zaridaina fahatsiarovana feno orana
Kittywakes etched your initials in the sky
– Kittywakes dia nanoritra ny anaranao tany an danitra
Oh, I fear for this crippled island and the turmoil of the times
– Oh, matahotra an’ity nosy kilemaina ity sy ny korontana amin’ny fotoana aho
And I’ll hold you in my heart till the day I die
– Ary hotazoniko ao am poko ianao mandra pahafatiko
Oh
– Oh
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
Everybody on the treadmill, runnin’
– Ny olona rehetra ao amin’ny treadmill,mihazakazaka
Under the billboards, out of the heat
– Eo ambanin’ny takelaka fanaovana dokambarotra, tsy misy hafanana
Somebody’s darling’s on the street tonight
– Misy olona malala eny an dalambe anio alina
Oh, I can’t stop runnin’
– Oh, tsy afaka mijanona mihazakazaka aho
I see the whole town fall
– Hitako ny fahalavoan’ny tanàna iray manontolo
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
I people-watch on the way back home
– Izaho olona-mijery eny an-dalana hody
(Ooh-ooh)
– (Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh)
– (Ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
