brother of all nudes,
take your eyes off the ground,
come see the light.

a new day is coming,
only those who know how to sing
will come as well.

Where there's no bread
there is no rest.
Little boy of a poor house,
whether he wants to or not, the boogy-man
will one day sing
this song.
Look at the sun
that's coming up...
If it's even pleasurable to sing,
if all of the Earth smiles,
who should not love,
little boy, you?
If reason isn't fury,
if everyone wants it,
one day you shall learn,
no matter what.

Look at the sun that's coming up,
come and see the sea.

How could you say 'tira-teima' in English?
Check it out
'Check it out' is plain wrong. 'Tira-teima' is when, for instance, two teams are facing a draw and need to discuss the finals with a last game. That last game is the 'tira-teima', the deciding game that will put an end to the draw. This is just an example, of course, which means you can use this term in many other instances that don't relate to sports. As for a translation, some words come to mind, but the most accurate is certainly 'decisive'.
