Music in my country sucks, 99.99% of the industry is boob-driven i'm not even speaking about male artists, but... there's this 00.01 % left that i could listen if it was on a different genre:

Jurga Seduikyte
"5th Season"


Jurga Seduikyte
"Nebijok" ("Don't be afraid"

lyrics
Spoiler:
Barefeet again
On a carpet of grass
Or maybe sliding down the dune to the sea.
With the storm, the wind made peace
The warmth is slowly being born.
It doesn't matter that it's still freezing at night
The icy land is beautiful to you.
With dawn, birds wake up, we fall asleep.

CHORUS
Me and you, we have courage at night
To listen into the speaking of darkness.
To climb the roofs and look down.
What's dear, not to be afraid to embrace.

In the day, lots of long weeks untill the Sun goes to asleep.
I'm comming running to you,
There's no more delusion in a dream.
Longing Moons in the eyes
From what the water is in flames.
Maybe it's good,
That we hadn't met yet.


This dude.... he's an awesome songwriter but his vocals...if you can call it vocals at all...
Andrius Mamontovas
"Geltona, zalia, raudona"

quick lyrics translation
Spoiler:

Those, looking at the sky
Everlasting depths of night
Searching for a sign
Longing for you

Chorus:
We - the children of yours.
Scorched fields.
You - our water and bread.
Yellow, green, red. (note: these are the colors of a national flag)

Missguided people
In their city of granges.
Waiting for mercy
They're facing you.

Chorus.....

Those - looking at the sky
Throught the windows of foreign home.
A baby in one's arms
Silently praying for you.

Chorus....
(note: i asume the song is about those who left the country because they cannot simply afford to survive here and goes abroad to earn money and surelly misses home like everyone else and would rather be here than somewhere else.)

I've had chance to see a musical where the soundrack was done by him, it was enormously good, that i ended up asking for a CD record of the whole thing since we were working on the costumes. But i didn't get it =/. here's one of the tracks:


and an ending piece:

lyrics
Spoiler:
Today rye started blooming again
There, where fields were burning yesterday
Ashes turned into land
Everything returned back to her.

To the heavens go a squad of thieves
Tomorrow, already, they will be back here.
Day dawns again and again
And night claims it again.

Hawks will turn into lambs once more.
Will go down to soar high.
And if the river dries down during drought
It will be woken up by rain over again.

This game - wings of a mill
Millstones, roads of birds.
The end will get the begining once again (literally it translates like "The end is awaited by begining" but it's basicly saying that the end will start again hence having a begining, basicly the beggining of the end lol)
Spoilts in the wheel of a carriage.

Everything that ends, returns to the beggining.
Everything that happened will repeat itself.
