Šo dziesmu es dziedāšu tev [English translation]

Bent down to the ground, so stiff

In one hand a violin, in the other wine

Head bent down, shirtless

He sings in a pleading tone of voice

The song ended. I went up to him.

He didn't want to speak, but I forced him to begin

The eyes across from me were sad

My eyes held shame

No, it is not like that

No one could be so free

No, it is not like that

"Then listen", he said, "I shall sing this song for you"

No, it is not like that

No one could be so free

No, it is not like that

"Then listen", he said, "I shall sing this song for you"

I leant in closer

Nearly feeling for him like a father

The wine was stronger than the mind

But his mind refused to disappear

Just once he wants to hear a gunshot

To rise freely into the sky wearing heavy boots

To nearly go too close to someone and say:

"Thank you. I am alive still."

Bent down to the ground, so stiff

In one hand a violin, in the other wine

All that I wish has been,

And now I have nowhere else to go

No, it is not like that

No one could be so free

No, it is not like that

"Then listen", he said, "I shall sing this song for you"

No, it is not like that

No one could be so free

No, it is not like that

"Then listen", he said, "I shall sing this song for you"
