Kuplejas par laimi - Raimonds Pauls , Viktors Lapcenoks Übersetzung ins Englische

Kuplejas par laimi

Dažam dārzā rozes zied, citam tikai usnes
Dažu vilnis dzelmē rauj, citu tikai uznes

Ja tu draudziņ nezini kur ir laime tava
Nemeklē to pudelē, pudelē tās nava

Ja tu draudziņ nezini kur ir laime tava
Nemeklē to pudelē, pudelē tās nava

Ne jau visi krekliņos pasaulē mēs nākam
Ne jau visi pasaulē iekārtoties mākam

Var jau laimi meklējot, skraidīt sieva smaidot
Var jau glāzi cilājot tikai citus vainot

Ir jau tādi varoņi kas ar lielu sparu
Savā laimē vīlušies, sasit stikla taru

Verse About Happiness

To some, the garden blooms with roses, to others, only thistles
A wave drags one into the depths, and another it just lifts

If you do not know where your happiness lies, my friend
Do not search for it in the bottle, it is not there

If you do not know where your happiness lies, my friend
Do not search for it in the bottle, it is not there

Not all of us are born into shirts
Not all of us know how to settle down

One can search for happiness, and go around making others smile
One can raise a glass and only blame others

There are those heroes, who with great zeal
Disappointed by their luck, smash glass containers
