Lyrics and translation Helena Vondráčková - Dvě Malá Křídla Tu Nejsou

Dvě Malá Křídla Tu Nejsou

Projděte dům do všech koutů
Najděte stín a jen stín
Dvě malá křídla tu nejsou
Byla tu málem a nejsou
Kudy jen bloudí a kde jsou
Hnízdo je prázdné
Tichý klín.

Kdo viděl dívku něžnou
Jít ráno k náměstí
Šla vrátit výhru
Zamknout bránu ke štěstí
Ta věc se zdála běžnou
A teď se hříchem zdá.

Projděte dům do všech koutů
Najděte stín a jen stín
Dvě malá křídla tu nejsou
Byla tu málem a nejsou
Kudy jen bloudí a kde jsou
Hnízdo je prázdné
Tichý klín.

Jen lékař napsal krátkou
Svou zprávu úřední
O někom zmínka první
Zmínka poslední
Už nejsi dívko matkou
A ptáček nezpívá.

Projděte dům do všech koutů
Najděte stín a jen stín
Dvě malá křídla tu nejsou
Byla tu málem a nejsou
Kudy jen bloudí a kde jsou
Hnízdo je prázdné
Tichý klín.

Jdou mámy večer z jeslí
Kol hřišť a nároží
Do bílých cích
Dvě bílá křídla uloží
A dívka prstem kreslí
Psaní podivná.

Projděte dům do všech koutů
Najdete stín a jen stín
Dvě malá křídla tu nejsou
Byla tu málem a nejsou
Kudy jen bloudí a kde jsou
Co já vím.

No tak projděte dům
Z lásky tu zpívá jen stín
Dvě malá křídla tu nejsou
Byla tu málem a nejsou
Kudy jen bloudí a kde jsou
Hnízdo je prázdné
Tichý klín.

Her Little Wings Are Missing

Walk throughout the house to every nook
Just shadows are what you'll find
Her little wings are missing
They were almost here, and now they're gone
Where could they be wandering and where are they
Her nest is empty
Silent embrace.

Who saw the tender maiden
Walk to the town square in the morning
She went to return her prize
To lock the gate to happiness
That thing seemed ordinary
And now it seems like a sin.

Walk throughout the house to every nook
Just shadows are what you'll find
Her little wings are missing
They were almost here, and now they're gone
Where could they be wandering and where are they
Her nest is empty
Silent embrace.

Only the doctor wrote a brief
Official report of his own
Someone mentioned first
Someone mentioned last
You are no longer a mother, girl
And the little bird doesn't sing.

Walk throughout the house to every nook
Just shadows are what you'll find
Her little wings are missing
They were almost here, and now they're gone
Where could they be wandering and where are they
Her nest is empty
Silent embrace.

Mothers walk from the nursery in the evening
Around playgrounds and corners
Into little white blankets
They'll place the little white wings
And the girl draws with her finger
Strange writing.

Walk throughout the house to every nook
Just shadows are what you'll find
Her little wings are missing
They were almost here, and now they're gone
Where could they be wandering and where are they
What do I know.

So just walk throughout the house
Only the shadow of love sings here
Her little wings are missing
They were almost here, and now they're gone
Where could they be wandering and where are they
Her nest is empty
Silent embrace.
