GLITTERING DIAMONDS (ENGLISH)

The desert knows the story,

and tells it once again,

about diamonds and men together,

about treason, greed and pain.

The story that starts with hope,

dreams of glory and wealth,

of men looking for diamonds

lost in the desert plains.

Diamonds have always been diamonds

And have always dug the soul of men.

Once they belonged to a king

in the ancient kingdom of sand,

envy and war then came,

(only diamonds could cause such plagues)

then, the desert, in love with diamonds

spread throughout the empire decay.

Since that many have come

and have been swallowed by the sands

and this won’t be the last time,

thus realizes the dying man,

and laid on his grave of sand

he recognizes his last crimes

and not the diamonds in his hand,

and no diamond in this land

can give him another chance

‘Cause the desert owns the diamonds

as diamonds own the souls of men.
