lyrics

CO NA TOM

čínská poezie

Slunce klesá
bůvoli táhnou domů
motýl si sedl na číšky okraji
já ztratil svět hry
neklidu
a shonu

našel jsem život
v něm už nehraji

zmámený ránem vrávorám
pod trámy zápraží procitám
ptáka se ptám
copak je dnes za den
čas jarního větru
mi toulavá žluna odpoví
dojat
zas k vínu zasedám
nalévám si sám

já bídný
hluchý
prokletý
co na tom
že o životě sen marný mám





Co na tom (What Does it Matter)
Chinese poetry)

The sun is setting
Buffalos are on the move
A butterfly has sat down on the chalice‘s brim
I lost the world of play
of restlessness
And bustle
I have found life
In which I don‘t play anymore

Dazzled by morning I stumble
I wake up under the beams in front of the house

I ask the bird
What day is today
The time of spring wind
A wandering oriole answers
Touched
I sit down to wine again
Pouring it myself

Me forlorn
deaf
cursed

What does it matter
that I dream about life in vain

Gentleness and at the same time fullness of the sound, tenderness and teasing, coaxing and likable craziness as well a tactful life message of poetry of their lyrics ... more
