“Suus” lyrics — Rona Nishliu (Albania, Eurovision 2012)

Në këtë botë, dashuria s’jeton më
Koha më për ne ska kohë, jo
Jooo, ooh ohh ohh
Joooo ohhhhh ohhhh

Koha për ne ska kohë
Atëron aeroplani im
Në … drita.. shpirtit tende
Me beryla ngjiten sot

Ata që dje s’jetonin dot
Për këtë ….. ska rëndësi
……. u përbin
Nesërmet nuk sjellin gjë
Vec shpres pas shpres dhe marrëzi

Më ler ni të qaj
Qaj
Qaj
Se këtë gjë mas te miri di ta bëj tani
Se këtë gjë mas të miri di të bëj tani

Më ler ni të qaj
Qaj
Qaj
Se këtë gjë mas te miri di ta bëj tani
Se këtë gjë mas të miri di të bëj tani

Më ler ni të qaj
Qaj
Qaj
Se këtë gjë mas te miri di ta bëj tani
Se këtë gjë mas të miri di të bëj tani

English translation

In this world, love lives no more
Time has no time for us anymore, no
Noo, oh
Noo… oh…
Time has no time for us anymore

My airplane lands
On your souls’s runway without lights.
They elbow their way and rise today,
Those who couldn’t live yesterday.

But yesterdays have no importance
they were devoured by stormy seas.
Oh, tomorrows won’t bring anything,
Only hope without hope and madness…

Let me cry… cry… cry…
Cause this is the best I can do now
Cause this is the best I can do now

Let me cry… cry… cry…
Cause this is the best I can do now
Cause this is the best I can do now

Let me cry… cry… cry…
Cause this is the best I can do now
Cause this is the best I can do now

@ wnjasdmzx,
I doubt you can discern anything musical from noise, given, for example, the fact that you went “death” listening to the song. Maybe you meant deaf? Because, if you become death, I think you need to learn a little life from this wonderful singer.
Other than that, if you are just a troll from an opposing country, I am just sad you spend your time criticising so stupidly. If you indeed are English, I am sorry for your country/culture, for you give the English language a bad name.

I liked the song really much. Watched the show at the Baku Crystal Hall. When Rona sang we simply stood up in awe! Unbelievable vocal power! Love and respect from Azerbaijan. Also liked the UK, Estonian and Spanish entries.

It is awful the comments some people write here ….
Some say that their ears bled ?? that because you´re bloody deaf already¡
That woman has a voice rare to find. The song is something different a refreshing, most of the songs are entertaining an a bit of the same …..
Hope the best for Rona, I wish she wins the final, just to show how many morons are around ….
Best of luck, Rona¡
You have a vote from an spaniard in UK

It pains me to read/hear such SHALLOW comments regarding a singer’s appearance. Some people must be so hardened by their own shortcomings that they just can’t appreciate the beauty in art. By the way, this great woman is not bad-looking at all, hello!! I bet none of the haters had acne and they are all beauty queens, right? STOP HATE! Ms. Rona Nishliu is probably the single most gifted performer in this ESC edition, together with great singers Pastora Soler, Kaliopi, Pasha Parfeny and few others. Further, Suus/Rona may be one of the very few really exceptional entries in recent… Read more »

I think some people are tone deaf…I am from the UK and although I did not understand what Rona was singing (before I read the translated lyrics above…thank you for that btw) it is a truly beautiful and powerful song. Since when has looks got anything to do with how someone sings is beyond me and a critique that belongs to a modelling contest and not a singing contest. I truly hope Albania do well as they have chosen a well deserved and talented singer…go Rona 🙂

Songs like “Suus”, by Rona are rare, not coming often by artists. It needs to be pure artist like Rona is, to feel it and to perform just like she does. This song is not imposing to jury or to the mass, that’s why is different and I wane vote for.
12 points from London.

Although we learned that friends of donating countries vote each other, to Ronen
Good luck

WTF people are you DEAF?! She is the hell of a singer (like it or not). And the song is one of the very few and far between creations in this beloved, albeit tacky, festival.
