Lyrics and translation Ieva Akurātere - Mans brālis

Mans brālis

Mans brālis kaut kur tālu, tālu
Mans brālis ceļa malā trīc
Es neeju uz karnevālu
Tur viss jau priekšā uzrakstīts

Mans brālis kaut kur sists un plosīts
Mans brālis kaut kur apmielots
Ar baltu smaidu ceļā posies
Ar saltu naidu apmiglots

Es zinu viss ir nepareizi
Viss nepareizi rakstīts tur
Es labi atceros to reizi
Mans brālis baltu guni kur

Mēs dzeram dzeltenīgu tēju
Šurp vēji pasauli mums nes
Mans brālis aizgāja ar vēju
Mirdz saulē tukšas krūzītes

Mans brālis kaut kur tālu, tālu
Mans brālis ceļa malā trīc
Es neiešu uz karnevālu
Tur viss jau priekšā uzrakstīts

Es zinu viss ir nepareizi
Viss nepareizi rakstīts tur
Es labi atceros to reizi
Mans brālis baltu guni kur

My brother

My brother somewhere far, far away
My brother trembles on the roadside
I'm not going to the carnival
Everything is already written there

My brother somewhere beaten and torn
My brother somewhere caressed
With a white smile, set off on your way
Clouded by cold hatred

I know it's all wrong
It's all written wrong there
I remember that time well
My brother, kindle the white fire

We drink yellowish tea
Winds from across the world reach us
My brother departed with the wind
Empty cups sparkle in the sun

My brother somewhere far, far away
My brother trembles on the roadside
I will not go to the carnival
Everything is already written there

I know it's all wrong
It's all written wrong there
I remember that time well
My brother, kindle the white fire
