Like the stars on the summer night
We can shine forever
And you and we're alive
What we feel is what is right
We can run like never
Locked up for life but I'll do the time
If love was a crime then we would work miracles
High above the ground
They will never break us down
О, дай ми любовта!
дай ми любовта!
О, дай ми любовта!
They will never break us down
О, дай ми любовта!
дай ми любовта!
О, дай ми любовта!
They will never break us down
Never mind
Wrong or right
Our love ain't got no pride
So we change for better
Unafraid
Never fade
When it's dark we illuminate
When we rise together
If love was a crime then we would be criminals
Locked up for life but I'll do the time
If love was a crime then we would work miracles
High above the ground
They will never break us down
О, дай ми любовта!
дай ми любовта!
О, дай ми любовта!
They will never break us down
О, дай ми любовта!
дай ми любовта!
О, дай ми любовта!

Together we're untouchable
You and me against the world
Together we're invincible

The lyrics of Poli Genova's song "If Love Was A Crime" speaks about the strength of love, and how society often tries to ignore it or devalue it, but ultimately, it still prevails. The song starts with the comparison of the intensity of love to the shining stars in a summer night that can shine forever. The next lines articulate that love knows no bounds or discrimination; it does not care if it is right or wrong, and people often change for the better because of love. The chorus declares that if love was a crime, the lovers will be criminals locked up for life, and they will do anything and everything to make their love work. It emphasizes that love is a miracle that can take them high above the ground, and no one can break them down if they together stand on it.
The next verse emphasizes that the love between the two people making them unafraid in the face of challenges and shine brightly in the dark. When they stand together, they live as if they are untouchable and invincible. The ending declares the resilience and unbreakable nature of their love. The repetition of the Bulgarian phrase "О, дай ми любовта!" which translates to "Oh, give me love!" emphasizes the longing and intensity of their love that will never break them down.
