Sparse translations of Sappho into "unconventional" languages

Lately I have been making several translations of Sappho into languages that aren't among the "conventional" ones I translated Sappho to, i.e. English Latin Italian. Since I don't know how many I will make, I will use this post as a collection for those.
The first such translation I made is… a hot mess :). So, for more precise dating info, head to this Facebook note, and for why this is a hot mess, see this Quora question. Essentially, the Finnish is absolutely appallingly horrible, and correcting it doesn't make sense because, with phonemic stress being much more important than vowel length (which surprises me a lot since the stress is predictable, but I digress), basing meter on quantity is a no-go. Barbarous meter could be an idea, but with my absolute ineptitude at getting Finnish right without actually seriously studying it, I definitely won't try it.
Anyway, between 6 and 7/3/19, I translated a random hexameter (1.C.i) by Sappho into Finnish, trying to get a hexameter, and between the following two days, I did the same with the Idyll with Aphrodite. Below, I report the final versions I reached before Quora intervened and demolished my endeavour, with only one correction: synnyttiin, which I got by accidentally looking at the wrong row of the inflection table, was supposed to be syntyivät. Similar corrections may be applicable to the other translation, but I don't want to re-analyze all this stuff and check where I went wrong. I also choose one of the options for ll. 4-5 of the second thing. I did completely rewrite verse 3 of the second thing to put in "niitty", "meadow", which I had previously forgotten to include. That was done starting 22:12 1/5/21. 22:15 I have l. 2. 22:20 I singularize the winds into tuuli. 22:26 I'm done.
So uh… so much for "definitely won't try it" with this thing going on… also, I found out hexameters have been done by Finns, so non-barbarous meter seems perfectly fine, no idea why I gathered it didn't make sense. Anyway, after this discovery, I tried to eliminate the spurious "hyvät" from the Finnish hexameter, and after «Kultaiset rannoilla kikherneet kasvoivat –» (2/5/25 0:45), I added "aa" as in the alternate version below at 0:50, which isn't much better, but I really can't improve it.

Χρύσειοι δ' ἐρέβινθοι ἐπ' ἀϊόνων ἐφύοντο. Δ̤ε̣ῦρύ μ' ἐκ Κρή̣τα̣̣ς̤ ἐ̤π[ὶ τόνδε] ναῦον Ἄγνον, ὄπ[πᾳ δὴ χ]άριεν μὲν ἄλσος Μαλί[νων, β]ῶμοι δ' ἔ‹ν›ι θυμιάμε̤- ν̣οι̣ λιβ]ανώτῳ· Ἐν ⌟δ' ὔδωρ ψῦχρον κελάδει δι' ὔσδων Μαλίνων⌞, β̤ρόδοισ‹ι› δὲ ⌟παῖς ὀ χῶρος⌞ ‹Ἐσκ›ίαστ̤', ⌟αἰθυσσομένων δὲ φύλλων Κῶμα κατάῤῥει⌞· Ἐν δὲ λείμω[ν] ἰπ̣π̣ό̣β̣οτος τέθαλε Ἠ‹ρί›νοι̣σι̣ν̤ ἄνθεσιν, αἰ δ' ἄηται Μέλλιχα πνέ̤ο̤ισι [φύτων] καρ̣ά̣νο- θεν κατίο‹ι›[σαι.] ⌟Ἔλθε⌞ δὴ σὺ στέμ[ματ'] ἔλ̣ο̣ισ̣α̣, ⌟Κύπρι, χρυσίαισιν ἐν κυλίκεσσιν ἄβρως συμμεμίγμε̣νον θαλίαισι νέκταρ οἰνοχόεισα⌞.

Syntyivät kultaiset hyvät rannoilla kikherneet Or: Kultaiset rannoilla kikherneet, aa, kasvoivat Temppeliä pyhää tätä kohti, jolle Jään ma nyt, Kreetalta tule aa te, täällä Metsä kaunis on sekä alttareia Suitsuke runsas Polttavat. Ja kylmä puro oksien vä- lissä virtaa ruusuja kaikki täällä Peittävät, lehdiltä rasahtavilta Aa uni laskee. Kukkinut hevosta ravitseva on ku- kin keväisin niitty, makeasti tuuli Nyt puhaltaa kuin mesi, puilta hellä Laskeva meille. Aa Kyproslainen, tule tälle, käytä Seppelet, riemun kera nektarin sa Kaada kultaisiin pikareihin aa, juo- kaamme se koolla/koossa.

We then continue with a waka-meter translation into Japanese of The stars and the moon. I give below the original Greek, a German translation into barbarous meter (which acts as a teaser for the barbarous meter German edition of Sappho I will launch someday), the Japanese, and a barbarous meter Hindi version.

• The German one is from around 19 on 5/3/21, with the corrections suggested around 19:45 by this comment. I put it here just to fill the column, there are a couple other German translations, but these will go directly into the edition.
• The Japanese one was made between 15 and 16 on 24/2/21 and posted here (in the form «銀色に | Gin’iro ni / 輝く月は | Kagayaku tsuki wa / この地球 | Kono chikyū / 光で満たす | Hikari de mitasu / あの時は、 | Ano toki wa, / 綺麗な月を | Kirêna tsuki wo / 巡る星 | Meguru hoshi / 明るい笑顔 | Akarui egao / 早く匿う。 | Hayaku kakumau.») to request improvement suggestions. I later made three more translations (see below), but I'm not totally sure I will do a Japanese edition of Sappho in waka meter, hence why all those translations are in this post. I then got an answer about the translation here under the question about the other three, at 9:18 on Feb 26, where two corrections were suggested, which I took up and have below. It is the only one here that translates the Bergk-amended text with αἶψ' instead of ἂψ.
• The Hindi one is from 18:19-18:54 on 15/3/21, and is waiting for either ATajuddin or Quoran Tony Singh to suggest improvements since it appears the last two lines are hard to understand, perhaps due to the postposition "par" ending up at the start of l. 4. Since I have an English barbarous meter translation that may not have its own edition, I will put it here, and to fill the column I put the Italian one from the future edition in here as well. So the Italian one dates to 25/3/21, around 20:08 a first version was made, and around 22 it got some tweaks. As for the English one, we're going into the night between 28 and 29/3/21, specifically around 1:25.
• Left-hand Romagnolo has its history at The stars and the moon, full moon and… an intruder?, right-hand Romagnolo is a rhming remake from 7/10/23, originally in the form «Tòtti al stël atôr'n a ch'la bëla lõna / Prëst la luș 'd la su fàża agli arpõna / Quãnd che pìna piò tãnta luș la-s dõna / P'r 'e nòstar mònd.» from 16:04-06, then l. 2 was remade at 16:17, and the last two lines were remade 9/10/23 21:59. I put them both here so they are paired. Maybe one day I'll do another translation into a Latin-script language and come to move right-hand to the left and put the new translation on the right.
• Scratch that, let's include two Latin translations here :); on the left, the high school one, whose history is here, modulo the "astra" which is fixed 3/5/25 probably just before 13 and the "ipsa" fixed 9/5/25 18:35 upon realizing the need for this fix while putting the translation here; on the right, the improvement dated 3/5/25 13:01-13:02.

Ἄστερες μὲν ἀμφὶ κάλαν σελάνναν Ἂψ ἀπυκρύπτοισι φάεννον εἶδος, Ὄπποτα πλήθοισα μάλιστα λάμπῃ ἀργυρία γᾶν. Ogni stella attorno alla bella luna La brillante faccia nasconde ancora, Or che, piena, argentea, più di tutto Splende sul mondo. Al stël atôran a ch'la bëla lõna Prëst la luṣ 'd la su fàẓa agli arpõna, Quând che piò tãnta luṣ d’arzẽt la-s dõna P’r ‘e nòstar mònd. 銀色ぎんいろに 輝かがやく月つきは この地球ちきゅう 光ひかりで満みたす その時ときに、 綺麗きれいな月つきを 巡めぐる星ほし 輝かがやき隠かくす 瞬またなききの間まに तारे सारे ही सुंदर चांद के आस-पास फिर छुपाते उनके चमकीले रूप को झब, रुपहला ही एवं पूरा, भूमि पर है चमकता। Pulchram illam͜ astra prope lūnam ipsa Lūmunōsam͜ imāginem abcelant svam, Cum͜ illa terram lūce potissimē͜ argen- tōque inundat.

All around the beautiful moon, the stars Once again their bright shining faces hide As it, full and silver, more than them all Lights up the Earth.

Next up, a bunch of translation of the single line «I don't know what to say/think, I have two thoughts».

• First up, a Japanese one in waka meter. The first version is from around 19:10 on 25/2/21, made in a couple of minutes. I posted it here. I get comments by explicitly asking for them in the comments to an answer misplaced under that question, and this produces the second version the next day, with "dekinai", at "now" = 11:43:20, and that was fixed at "6 mins ago" from 13:40:46.
• At 17:30-17:37 on that day (25/2/21), I produce the Hindi, which is supposed to scan according to – –u – | – –u – | – –u – | – –u –, though IIRC it has one wrong syllable. Note that –u is often replaced with an "overlong" syllable, where a long vowel is coupled to a closed syllable. That's a Persian thing. Surprisingly, the kî thing from the next item never touched this translation until I gave it a kî version: 26/11/24 2:05.
• I then think of using barbarous meter instead, and produce the second Hindi version in the evening of 11/3/21, in the form «मैं ना जनता क्या कहना: विचार मेरे बांटे हैं।». ATajuddin then suggests to add kî after jān'tā, which changes the line drastically to «अब मैं जनता न कि क्या कहूं: मुझे दो विचार», and then to «अब ना जानता कि क्या मैं कहूँ: मुझे दो विचार।», and eventually to «मैं ना जनता कि क्या कहूं: दो मेरे पास विचार।», all of which happens before 12 on the next day, save for the final 14:15 version. Then Tony Singh on Quora suggests to remove the kî, and I revert to the form below; finally, at some point I realize I should make it jān'tī, feminine, since it's Sappho, and at 0:21 on 12/3/23 I implement this.
• Around 15:10 on 12/3/21 I think of a barbarous meter Modern Greek rendition: «Τι να είπω, δε ξέρω […]», but είπω is not a modern Greek form, so 25/4/23 18:33 I change it to the below.
• Two days later in the early afternoon I do the same with Russian. On 23/6/23 I submit it to Alexey Gukov on Quora, and he approves it. I'm never sure how to render θέω: say, as I did in Russian and Greek, or "think"? For the latter option, I come up with Что считать я не знаю at 18:49, which A.G. says uses an excessively modern verb for a Sappho translation (so the perfective Ах, что счесть я не знаю from 19:55 is also not reported below), and then Я не знаю, что думать at 19:18. Then I wonder if we should use a perfective verb, given the aorist in Greek, and come up with Что подумать, не знаю agt 22:38.
• In the night between 12 and 13/10/23, thinking of the captions for the above, I start translating the Haiku translation at the top of this list into an Italian haiku at 1:39, and into an English one at 1:40. By 2:24, the below versions are complete.
• On the wave of the previous items' translations, on 25/11/24 I decide to make an English version of the Urdu meter version, and do so at 8:19.75, and then, probably around 8:26 and definitely within 8:41, I do the same in Greek, in the form «Δε ξέρω εγώ τι να πω: οι σκέψεις μου είναι δυ-ο -> τώρα είναι / τώρα 'ναι δυο.», and at 9:22 I wonder: «τώρα 'ναι or τώρ' είναι?».
• 30/11/24 3:43, just for the lolz, I try Spanish on this, and end up with a very unconvincing «Yo no sé qué pensar: mi opinión es partida en dos». At 1:10 on 1/12/24, I try «Tiengo dos pensamentos yo», but the final yo is still unconvincing. Make it ya! I think at 1:12, et voilà. In the meantime, as I was editing this post, I made the Albanian version, first half at 1:06, second one at 1:08.

Οὐκ οἶδ' ὄττι θέω· δύο μοι τὰ νοήματα. 原版げんばん 心こころにの 事こと分わからない： 思考しこうは二ふたつ。 修正版しゅうせいばん 心こころには 言葉ことばにできぬ 思おもいが二ふたつ Dentro nel mio cuor, Indicibile per me, Coppia di pensieri c'è. Without kî With kî ना जानती क्या मैं कहूँ: मेरे विचार बांटे हुए। मैं ना जानती क्या कहना: विचार मेरे बंटे हैं।. ना जानती कि क्या कहूँ: मेरे विचार बांटे हुए। ना जानती कि क्या कहना: विचार मेरे बंटे हैं।. I don't know what I should say: my thoughts are now                                                                  [split into two. Say Think (imperfective) Think (perfective) Что сказать, я не знаю: две мысли есть у меня. Я не знаю, что думать: две мысли есть у меня. Что подумать, не знаю: две мысли есть у меня. Yo no sé qué pensar: tiengo dos pensamientos ya.

Τι να πω, δεν το ξέρω· οι σκέψεις μου είναι δυο. Genban Kokoro ni no Koto wakaranai: Shikô wa futatsu. Shūsê ban Kokoro ni wa Kotoba ni dekinu Omoi ga futatsu Deep within my heart, Both unspeakable, there are Two thoughts very far apart Without kî With kî Nā jān’tī kyā maiṅ kahūṃ: mere vicār bāṅṭe hue.

Say Think (imperfective) Think (perfective) Čto skazát', ĵa nĵe znáĵu: dvĵe mýsli ĵest' u mĵenĵá. Ĵa nĵe znáĵu, čto dúmat': dvĵe mýsli ĵest' u mĵenĵá. Čto podúmat', nĵe znáĵu: dvĵe mýsli ĵest' u mĵenĵá. Un' s'e du çdo me thon': jon' mendimet e mia dy.

Next up we have Japanese again. This time it's the line about Latona and Niobe. The first Japanese version is from 25/2/21 at about 19:30. I posted it here, where I then got the second one, with "Niobe no futari" for l. 2, at "now" from 11:43:20 the next day, whereas at "31 mins" from 14:51:10 that gets made into the current version.

Λάτω καὶ Νιόβα μάλα μὲν φίλαι ἦσαν ἔταιραι. 原板げんばん ラートーと ニオバー二人ふたり お互たがいに とても愛いとしい 友達ともだちでした。 修正板しゅうせいばん ラートーと ニオバー二人ふたり 愛あいし合あい 仲なか睦むつまじく 絆きずなは深ふかく。

Lato and Niobe were indeed very dear friends. Genban Rātō to Niobā futari Otagai ni Totemo itoshii Tomodachi deshita. Shūsê ban Rato to Niobā futari Aishi ai Naka mutsumajiku Kizuna wa fukaku.

Then we have a Japanese waka translation of the golden chickpeas line. On 26/2/21, shortly before 00:50, I make the first version. I post it here, and the next morning at "now" from 11:43:20 I get the second version suggested to me.

Χρύσεοι ‹δ'› ἐρέβινθοι ἐπ' ἀϊόνων ἐφύοντο. 原版げんばん 海岸かいがんに 黄金色こがねいろな 豆まめは生うまれた。 修正版しゅうせいばん 海辺うみべにて 生うまれた豆まめの 色いろは黄金おうごん

Golden chickpeas upon the shores were born. Genban Kaigan ni Koganeirona Mame wa umareta. Shūsê ban Umibe nite Umareta mame no Iro wa ôgon

To, for the time being, close this post off, we have a translation of the Leda fragment into Japanese. It started at 3:01 in the night between 13/3 and 14/3/21, and was finished between 14:04 and 14:15 the next day.

Φαῖσι δή ποτα Λήδαν ὐακινθίνων εὔρην ὤϊον [ἀνθέ͜ων] πεπυκαδμένον [ὔπο]. 人ひとはそう言いう： レーダーは ヒアシンス花はな 隠かくしたの 卵たまごをいつか 見みつけたわ.

They say indeed that once Leda found An egg covered [by] hyacinth-colored [Flowers]. Hito wa sô iu: Rēdā wa Hiashinsu hana Kakushita no Tamago wo itsuka Mitsuketa wa.

2.5 years later, this series of Japanese translations has become its own project, and just today, 21/11/23, it has gotten its own post: 長歌でのサッフォー Chôka de no Saffō. I decided to leave only the 2021 translations here, removing "Love shook my heart", "You came", and "Idly-barking tongue" from here and leaving them only to that post.

To close off the post, on 19/9/22 at 12:23-24, I randomly translate a Sappho fragment into Spanish in barbarous meter. Since my Spanish edition already has a prose translation (left column is a revision), and this translation loses one or two words, I decided to put this here. 12:24 is a tweak: entonces->ahora at the end. Then on 29/7/24 I tried to recall this, and came up with the other two versions at 23:25, after discarding the "por ellas" version from 23:24. Finally there's the 28/10/25 15:42 version, probably the best of the four. Let's see it!

Τάδε νῦν ἐταίραις Tαὶς ἔμαις τέρποισα κάλως ἀείσω. Esas cosas ahora, delectando A mis compañeras, voy a cantar bellamente.

These things now, pleasing My companions, I will nicely sing. Original 29/7/24 1 29/7/24 2 Final Para delectar a Mis amigas voy a cantar ahora Para delectar a Mis amigas, bien cantaré pa' ellas. Para delectar a Mis amigas, bien cantaré para ͜ellas. A mis compañeras Delectando bien cantaré yo ahora

Ci sei tu o no?

Oggi canzone… ehm… Hindi o Urdu? Bah, son talmente vicine le due lingue che si confondono facilmente. lyricstranslate la dà per Hindi, quindi diciamo che è Hindi va', così non devo stare a produrre lo spelling Urdu con quel sistema orrendamente incasinato… :). Va ben, quindi canzone Hindi, तू है कि नहीं | Tū hai kî nahīṅ, che dà il titolo al post. L'ho beccata per caso su lyricstranslate, poi il 22/3/21 di sera ho iniziato a tradurla in cinese, traduzione finita la mattina dopo, e nello stesso tempo ho fatto anche la traduzione italiana, dopodiché la greca è venuta quel pomeriggio/sera, sicché la sera del 23 ho postato tutto. Ma quel «solo tu ne sei il perché» nel v. 2 della seconda strofa come c'è finito, che non fa rima? Aggiustiamo! 24/3/21 11:07. Una cosa sul cinese. Alla riga 3 della prima strofa, al momento di postare, avevo due versioni: «就告诉我» e «就跟我说声». Guardando la storia della traduzione, si trova la prima come originale del 23/3/21 alle 0:23, poi alle 0:28 si legge «就向＝＞跟我说声», che non si capisce bene cosa volesse fare. Ah ho capito: «就向我说声», poi «就跟我说声». Ergo l'alternanza è un aborto da ricostruzione della versione completa, mo' sopprimiamo la prima versione. Ah beh nella traslitterazione la cosa era pure già fatta :). Il Greco aveva versioni originali «Σ'εμές τις συνήθιες, είσαι η όχι εσύ;», «Και πες· σ'αυτές απόστασεις είσαι ή όχι εσύ;», «Αχ είσαι ή όχι εσύ;», dopodiché l'idea di mettere il πες probabilmente ha causato tutte le modifiche che ci portano alla versione corrente.
Come molte altre traduzioni greche, anche questa viene mandata alla Kika alle 14:49 del 9/7/23 e vede qualche correzione dalle 15:23 alle 15:28 di quel giorno, producendo la versione intermedia. Dopodiché, a parte vedere «Σε σένα γύρω ‘μαι και κοντά μου» -> «Σε σένα γύρω όντας κοντά μου ‘μαι» (12/7/23 1:14, fatta da me) -> «μόνο κοντά σου είμαι ο εαυτός μου» (14/7/23 8:47, fatta da Kika), alle 13:51 del 14 arriva la versione Kika, una traduzione dell'inglese di Lyricstranslate in Greco se non erro (anche se lei lì la riga appena menzionata e il ritornello li omette, per cui io li integro dalla correzione del 14 e ripetendo la fine della strofa 1). Con un po' di aggiustamenti miei del 14 e del 16, il 16 appunto arriviamo quasi alla versione finale, tranne per «Άσε με σήμερα να βρω τον εαυτό μου» e «Αφού το ρωτάς στην κάθε ανάσα μου, πες μου», il primo dei quali arriva il 17/7 alle 22:45-46 alla versione finale, mentre il secondo passa da «Ρώτησε στην κάθε μου ανάσα, και σε μένα, αχ, πες·» alle 22:48 di quel giorno e poi arriva alla versione finale alle 11:31 del 23/7/23, mentre vengo a raccontare queste cose qui.
Ben, vediamola!

I don't want to get rich

Today we have an elegiac couplet by Theognis, set to music by Avaton with no respect for meter, vowel quantity, or pitch accent, and translated to English by me. Video here, and the translation dates to 28/2/21 shortly after 3:00. I will refrain from adding a transliteration for the Greek so as to a) avoid the issue of whether to transliterate in Modern pronunciation or Reconstructed Ancient pronunciation, and b) avoid the need for a column-filler, putting English and Greek side by side. The original couplet reads «Οὐκ ἔραμαι πλουτεῖν, οὐκ εὔχομαι, ἀλλά μοι εἴη / Ζῆν ἀπὸ τῶν ὀλίγων, μηδὲν ἔχοντι κακόν.». Let's see!

Οὐκ ἐθέλω πλουτεῖν, Οὐκ ἐθέλω πλουτεῖν, Οὐκ εὔχομαι Οὐκ ἐθέλω πλουτεῖν, Οὐκ ἐθέλω πλουτεῖν, Οὐκ εὔχομαι Ἀλλά μοι Ἀλλά μοι εἴη, Ἁλλά μοι Ἀλλά μοι εἴη ζῆν Ἐκ τῶν ὀλίγων μηδέν Ἐκ τῶν ὀλίγων μηδὲν Ἐχόντα κακόν. Ἐκ τῶν ὀλίγων μηδέν Ἐκ τῶν ὀλίγων μηδὲν Ἐχόντα κακόν. Ἀλλά μοι Ἀλλά μοι εἴη, Ἁλλά μοι Ἀλλά μοι εἴη ζῆν

I don't want to get rich I don't want to get rich Don't pray for it I don't want to get rich I don't want to get rich Don't pray for it But may I But māy I But may I But māy I live Just with a few things, without Just with a few things, without The least of pains Just with a few things, without Just with a few things, without The least of pains But may I But māy I But may I But māy I live

Earth Angel

Today we have an English to Chinese translation. The song is Earth Angel (aka A fool in love), the one from Back to the Future. I translated it on 25/2/21 in the morning. Apparently I had mismemorized the lyrics, so the below is what I actually translated. I may translate that into another language to fill the column, not sure yet. I also mistranslated the end, so 19:26 27/2/21 你就变目击/让我很快乐的目击 gets fixed. On 15/1/21 at between 10:46 and 10:50, I think of changing 我亲爱的 to 亲亲爱爱. I unfortunately forget about this as I record the song a few hours later.
Wanting a column filler, on 14/6/23 at 12:58 I try French with «Ange sur terre, / Ange sur terre,». I then try Spanish with «¡Oh angel / Sobre tierra!» at 17:17, but I'm not convinced either language can omit the article, so I go back to French with «O ange, / Mon ange!» at 17:19, and right away I think «Will you be mine» after calling her «my angel» doesn't sound very sensible», so I make that «O ange / Sur la terre!». This stays there for a while, even ending up in both languages on IAFI (where I add «Should I be doing Romagnolo for shorter words, or at least for "sôra tërra" to definitely work?» ot the Spanish, having a sentence by grandma in mind for that claim, though maybe the "most + adjective + that there is" of «'e piò grãnd schif ch'u-j sèja sôra tërra» is the reason one can omit the article there?), until on 20/6/23 at 17:33-17:43 I do almost the whole rest of the French (which seems more plausibly possible to complete), forgetting the change in the last part, which I deal with the next day at 12:32 after recapping the translation. With this, Spanish is obviously ditched.
As I edit the video of the French, or as I caption it actually, I realize I not only mistranslated the French, but also misremembered the lyrics. Hence the below tabs, where the Chinese doesn't change at all, whereas the French goes from video version to ≤25/7/25 21:59 "Easy Fix" version, and then to the 25/7/25 21:59 retranslated version in the Correct Lyrics tab.
Let's see it!

Briciole d'amore

Oggi altra canzone albanese, Thërrime dashurie, che dà il titolo al post. Il 31/1/21 ho tradotto il ritornello in Italiano, la mattina dopo le due righe finali delle strofe, e poi l'ho lasciata lì per un bel po', finché la sera del 17/2/21 l'ho finalmente ultimata. La traduzione letterale è abbastanza diversa dalla cantabile, perché far stare la traduzione in musica era un macello. La trovate qui in inglese, in italiano forse prima o poi ce la metto. In caso di doppia possibilità, a sinistra per cantante donna e destinatario uomo, a destra viceversa. Per aggiustare la rima sbriciolato/strappata/ingrata nella versione a cantante uomo, il 20/2/21 alle 20:07 penso a «Tenerezza sbriciolata», che nella notte tra 21 e 22 alle 24:13 penso di usare solo nella prima ripetizione, come sotto. Il 3/6/25 alle 0:36 cambio O in Ah davanti a "mio amor", e alle 2:19, dopo registrato il video, cambio Amāt* in Carissim*. Vediamo!

Të fala un' njëher' Të fala un' sa her' E/I dashur vetja ime, ku po shkon? E/I hedhur si monedh' E/I vogël e/i pavler' E zbrita frikën time në stacion Do më falësh por do t'jem e/i fort' k'të her' Do të qaj sapo të mbyllet ajo der' * Më ke dashur apo si? Çfar' më dhe në jet' e di Ca thërrime dashurie Isha vetëm dhe me ty Më lexo tani në sy Të kam grisur fije fije Ah moj zemër si s'ma dije Më ke dashur apo si Çfar' më dhe në jet' e di Ca thërrime dashurie Ai/Ajo troket në der' Ta hap dhe këtë her' E/I dashur vetja ime, mos guxo! Më hodhi si monedh' Nuk qesha asnjëher' E zbrita frikën time në stacion Do më falësh por do t'jem e/i fort' k'të her' Do të qaj sapo të mbyllet ajo der' * Ah moj zemër si s'ma dije Ca thërrime dashurie

Video Finale Ah quante volte io T'ho dato il perdono mio Amāta/o me stessa/o, dove vai? Come monetīna Gettato lui/lei mi ha I miei timori alla stazione giù lasciai. Scusa, ma stavolta forte io sarò: Come chiudi quella porta, piangerò. * Mi hai amata/o sì o no? Quel che dato mi hai, lo so: Un amore sbriciolato / Tenerezza sbriciolata Ero sola/o anche con te. Or negli occhi leggi a me: A brandelli t'ho strappato/a O mio amor, quant'eri ingrato/a! Mi hai amata/o sì o no? Quel che dato mi hai, lo so: Un amore sbriciolato Alla porta būssa. Dovrei aprirgliela? Amāta/o me stessa/o, non osare mai! Non ho mai riso io M'ha gettata/o via, mio Dio I miei timori alla stazione giù lasciai. Scusa, ma stavolta forte io sarò: Come chiudi quella porta, piangerò. * O mio amor, quant'eri ingrato/a! Un amore sbriciolato Ah quante volte io T'ho dato il perdono mio Carissima/o me stessa/o, dove vai? Come monetīna Gettato lui/lei mi ha I miei timori alla stazione giù lasciai. Scusa, ma stavolta forte io sarò: Come chiudi quella porta, piangerò. * Mi hai amata/o sì o no? Quel che dato mi hai, lo so: Un amore sbriciolato / Tenerezza sbriciolata Ero sola/o anche con te. Or negli occhi leggi a me: A brandelli t'ho strappato/a Ah! Ah mio amor, quant'eri ingrato/a! Mi hai amata/o sì o no? Quel che dato mi hai, lo so: Un amore sbriciolato Alla porta būssa. Dovrei aprirgliela? Carissima/o me stessa/o, non osare mai! Non ho mai riso io M'ha gettata/o via, mio Dio I miei timori alla stazione giù lasciai. Scusa, ma stavolta forte io sarò: Come chiudi quella porta, piangerò. * O mio amor, quant'eri ingrato/a! Un amore sbriciolato

Amica

Oggi canzone albanese, Mike, che dà il titolo al post. Suggerita da nientemeno che la mia relatrice, l'ho decifrata nella seconda metà della settimana che si chiude col weekend 17-18/1/21, e l'ho tradotta nel cuore della notte tra il 19/1 e il 20/1, precisamente tra le 2:47 e le 4:14, con qualche ritocchino il giorno successivo. Devo dire che come ho fatto la parte dei 2000 baci (alias 1000 baci in italiano) non mi convince, prima o poi ci penso. Due note:

• Il testo nel video dice "Ai s'din sa du", "Lui non sa quanto voglio", ma io non capisco cosa c'entri questo "lui" che compare dal nulla in quello che voglio leggere come dialogo tra due vecchi amici separati dalla vita (cfr. i sottotitoli a inizio video, «…ata ishin vetëm dy fëmijë e ishin gjithmonë bashkë» "Loro erano solo due bambini ed erano sempre insieme", «por jeta kishte një mësim të hidhur për ta…» "ma la vita aveva una lezione amara per loro…", and «…ndarjën» "…la separazione", quindi ho deciso di cambiare "ai" (lui) in "vaj" (ahi, o in Spagnolo ¡ay!), e ho tradotto di conseguenza, rendendo sia "din" che "rrin" come seconde persone, cosa perfettamente possibile;
• Sempre per la questione del dialogo tra due, pare assurdo che la "mike", quella che se n'è andata, canti cose come "il giorno che te ne sei andato/a", quindi ho cambiato tutti i verbi alla prima persona, e di sotto ci sono due versioni del testo sia in albanese che in italiano, a sinistra quello per l'uomo, a destra quello della "mike"; adattamenti fatti tra le 15:30 e le 15:50 del 22/1/21, che includono anche trasformare "non tornerai, lo so" nell'attuale "non torni più, lo so";
• Notare che "mike", "amica", è omofono a "m'ike", "mi sei andato/a via", quindi il primo verso è ambiguo;
• Vista la dialettalità spinta della parte rap, avevo fatto un pensiero di tradurla in Romanesco, ma non mi veniva convincente quindi ho lasciato stare.

Con ciò, vediamo 'sta canzone!

Hey ti mike Ditën kur më the se ike Zërin dhe shpirtin ma fike E kam dit' ti nuk vjen më Ti shkove Në qytet tjetër u ndodhe Dhe gjysmën time e more E kam dit' nuk vjen më Ndonjëher^ më merr Malli për ty m^ merr O sa shum^ më merr Historia na ndau Po sikur ne të ishim bashk^?
