Lyrics and translation Dagmar Patrasová - Óda Na Češtinu

Óda Na Češtinu

Čech má hezky umět česky
Čech má bez chyb umět psát
Třesky, plesky, hrom a blesky
Česky hezky musíš znát

Hezky česky musíš znát
Hezky česky zazpívat
S potleskem i bez potlesku
Ať jsi v Čechách nebo v Česku
S tleskáním i bez tlesku
Musíš umět po česku

Hezky česky musíš znát
Česky bez chyb hezky psát
Jinak se ti chytré děti
Hezky česky budou smát

Ode to the Czech Language

A Czech should know how to speak Czech well,
A Czech should know how to write without mistakes,
Shards, bursts, thunder and lightning
You must know Czech well

You must know Czech well
You must sing well in Czech
With applause or without applause
Whether you are in Czechia or the Czech Republic
With clapping or without clapping
You must know how to speak in Czech

You must know Czech well
Write well in Czech without mistakes
Otherwise smart children
Will laugh at you in Czech
