WAQT (TIME)

LYRICS (English Translated) I spent my whole life, yet never found the time, Someone said, "Come, meet me," yet I never found the time. I wished to share someone’s pain, yet I never found the time, And when I longed to write it down, I never found the time. When I sought a moment’s rest, I never found the time, To give my parents what they deserved, I never found the time. As my health began to fade and fall, My brother pleaded then to me: "Leave all this work behind, Go, get an appointment with a doctor," but I never found the time. There is a never-ending queue of tasks, That sits heavy, riding on my mind. As soon as I settle the debts of the past, A brand new list is ready and waiting. How do I finish it all? For I never found the time, How will things ever mend? I spent my whole life, yet never found the time, And now time itself has vanished, saying—there was never any time. Explaination: we chase "work" to secure a future, only to realize we've spent the "present" which was the only thing we actually owned. The lines about the parents and the brother’s warning are particularly piercing—they ground the abstract concept of "time" into real, painful regrets.
