Přítele Mám, Abych Měl Za Kým Jít [English translation]

I have friends to have someone to follow,

Even if love would suddenly be (far) there.

When I feel worse than I probably must feel,

This is a fortune – that I have friends.

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, this is not me, wouldn't he stand near me?

I have friends to chit-chat with him,

To have him visiting me even if he doesn't have time.

To learn more than I know1,

To live through everything easier.

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, this is not me, wouldn't he stand near me?

A person alone is nothing.

A person alone is nothing.

So they should have someone to like.

I have friends to have someone to follow,

Even if love would suddenly be (far) there.

When I feel worse than I probably must feel,

There is a friend, you are never alone.

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, what I am, wouldn't he stand near me?

Oh, this is not me, wouldn't he stand near me?

A person alone is nothing.

A person alone is nothing.

So they should have someone to like.

1. Literally: "So he knows more than that bit that I know."
