Lyrics and translation Harijs Spanovskis - Trīs lietas

Trīs lietas

Trīs lietas man zāļu skapītī stāv
Ko lietoju brīžos, kad šķiet -
Vairs peldot es nesniegšu malu,
Trīs lietas, tad glābiņš ir, pieminiet:
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.
Trīs lietas man zāļu skapītī stāv,
Ko meklēju brīžos, kad šķiet -
Jau šodien sev darīšu galu,
Trīs lietas, tad glābiņš ir, pieminiet:
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.
Trīs lietas man zāļu skapītī stāv,
Var brīnīties tikai un smiet,
Ak, kamdēļ tik ilgi es salu?
Trīs lietas, ja zāļu skapītī stāv -
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Asaras, dziesmas un alus.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.
Dvēsele vaļā, asaras sāļas,
Dzīve ir rūgta, alus ir salds.
Dziesma ir gara, dzīve ir īsa,
Tas nav no svara - alus ir salds.

Three Things

Three things I have in my medicine cabinet
That I use when it seems to me that-
I'll not make it to shore as I swim,
Three things, salvation then is, remember:
Tears, songs and beer.
Tears, songs and beer.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
Three things I have in my medicine cabinet,
That I seek when it seems to me that-
Today I'll bring myself to an end,
Three things, salvation then is, remember:
Tears, songs and beer.
Tears, songs and beer.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
Three things I have in my medicine cabinet,
You can only wonder and laugh,
Oh, why have I frozen for so long?
Three things if you have in your medicine cabinet-
Tears, songs and beer.
Tears, songs and beer.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
Soul open, tears salty,
Life is bitter, beer is sweet.
The song is long, life is short,
It's of no importance - beer is sweet.
