A Hungarian rap song

Recently I discovered that one of the members of Children of Distance, a Hungarian rap group, is originally from Máriapócs. This was a very exciting discovery and I immediately set out to discover what I could about this famous Máriapócsian.

Unfortunately, the information available online is fairly slim, but I did learn that the rapper's name is Carp-E (derived from the English word carpenter) and that he was born in 1987. That made me feel pretty old and creepy so I quickly stopped Googling him and started looking for some of the group's songs instead.

And guess what? I found one that I really, really like!

I'm posting the Youtube video here, complete with the Hungarian lyrics. I don't know if it's just me, but even with the words right there, I still find it difficult to follow what is being said. It's such a tricky language...

  1. For anyone who is interested, here is the English translation of the lyrics (according to Google):

    1. Verse: (Carp-E)
    Love is still pounding the missing words on the track,
    Tell me that you could die and so do you wait for me
    For me the last time was a refuge,
    A few memories of you are now satisfied with it.
    We look at each other because of fear of my life in your hands
    The time must be protected from me and kidnap me
    How do I set it? Please tell me and I will!
    I do not want to grow up ... softly whisper ...
    Hide disappear, but I wish I could see
    For many years there was not enough as long as I waited for you
    But if it will be hard, I run away anyway
    The passing waves and says goodbye to cowardly
    My heart is still unable to open the music box itself
    Locked up listening to it a couple of stray emotion
    I could not believe other, and then you told her off
    This alone is not going to need you to solve!

    Chorus: (Patricia Ladányi)
    Remember me when the wind blows,
    Remember when everything comes to an end
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    Remember how you loved
    How much it hurt when you left
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    2. Verse: (Horus)
    Persist for years after the end of the strip,
    My being just a fading memory remains
    A lost world, a passionate soul,
    Misty forest strayed off on remote areas
    Final breath heaven sent do not wish other
    Keep only in my memory anyway, although I can wait for
    Leave me a little space where you can find peace,
    Parties were not to know it when I go to the heart!
    Pass the word so far, but still far from the goal
    Did you get all of this, the same is landed with you?
    The contempt of the world will be lost or encloses
    Will be out of loneliness, give or receive death
    An uncertain future, certainly I do not know what in store
    But I hope once maybe even hear your voice
    Prostrate figure in my arms kissing
    But until then, I ask you always remember me ...

    Chorus: (Patricia Ladányi)
    Remember me when the wind blows,
    Remember when everything comes to an end
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    Remember how you loved
    How much it hurt when you left
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    3. Verse: (Shady)
    I miss you sometimes, I see your face
    But the movie ended and does not like the twilight
    Seemed to have blacked out because of all the colors?
    Sometimes it tastes bitter flavors are taking a sad
    Although he died when only you I lost you
    You always knew that the dream of one day, dead ends
    Binds us together is a small barely visible thread
    A memory yarn to hang around the end of time
    But in the morning when he grabs my feet in the cold,
    I recall that I closed my arms eagerly furnace hot body
    I tried to back a single tear rolled out but emptied
    But I'm not saying it's easy to mask Inoculate
    Your love is so horrifying, I was perhaps a little wiser
    Not to do so again bántsalak had to decide
    Still hurts but once beautiful memories will perhaps
    Forgive and remember me a clean heart

    Chorus: (Patricia Ladányi)
    Remember me when the wind blows,
    Remember when everything comes to an end
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    Remember how you loved
    How much it hurt when you left
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    Chorus: (Patricia Ladányi)
    Remember me when the wind blows,
    Remember when everything comes to an end
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes

    Remember how you loved
    How much it hurt when you left
    Look at me, take my hand
    Hold out bravely while I close my eyes
