Rica
I don’t know what to do
– Mi no sa kiko pa hasi
Thought I was righteously leading our people, but
– Mi a kere ku mi tabata guia nos pueblo ku hustisia, pero
Now I’m faced with the truth
– Awor mi ta enfrentá e bèrdat
What kind of leader can’t tell good from evil?
– Ki tipo di lider no por distingui bon for di malu?
All those poor souls, how many could have been saved?
– Tur e almanan pober ei, kuantu por a keda salbá?
How could I trust in a justice so cruel and depraved?
– Kon mi por a konfia den un hustisia asina cruel i depravá?
One seeks an answer that one can not grant her
– Bo ta buska un kontesta ku bo no por duna
You’re looking for light only you can ignite
– Bo ta buskando lus ku solamente bo por lanta
Every transgression must serve as a lesson
– Tur transgreshon mester sirbi komo un lès
Yesterday, you drew sorrow
– Ayera, bo a pinta tristesa
What will you do tomorrow?
– Kiko bo ta hasi mañan?
I feel no wiser than when I commanded the slaughter of those sons and daughters
– Mi no ta sinti mi mas sabí ku ora mi a ordená e matamentu di e yu hòmbernan i yu muhénan ei.
(You can’t hide)
– (Bo no por skonde)
How can I be sure I don’t repeat more massacre based on mistaken conceit?
– Kon mi por ta sigur ku mi no ta ripiti mas masakre basá riba e presunshon erróneo?
(Look inside)
– (Dentro)
If I stand down and leave us exposed, would that be blind to the threat Hell may pose?
– Si mi para abou i laga nos eksponé, nos mester ta siegu pa e menasa di Fièrnu por suponé?
You can’t know, though time flows on
– Bo no por sa, aunke tempu ta kore den
So you must bear the cross bestowed upon you
– Pues bo mester tin e krus otorgá
Take pity, I pray
– Tene piedat, mi ta pidi
Give me a sign, what’s your guidance?
– Duna mi un señal, kiko ta bo guia?
Please show me the way
– Por fabor mustra mi e kaminda
You speak of choices made by other voices
– Bo ta papia di eskoho ku otro hende a hasi
You can only atone (Tell me how to atone)
– Bo por solamente expiá (dime como expiar)
Once you speak with your own
– Ora bo papia ku bo mes
If souls from damnation
– Si e almanan di kondena
Can earn their salvation
– Nan por gana nan salbashon
And find their forgiveness on high
– I buska su pordon na altura
How do I?
– Kon mi ta hasi?
