Lyrics and translation Ojārs Grīnbergs - Somu pirts




Somu pirts
Finnish sauna
Sāp katru dienu kauli, kauli
My bones ache every day, my bones
Oi, oi vairs nevar ciest.
Oh, oh, I can't stand it anymore.
Ja nelīdz arī zāles, zāles,
If even the pills don't help, the pills,
Kam velti naudu šķiest?
Why waste money?
Oi, oi vai tiešām būtu, būtu
Oh, oh, could it really be,
Laiks man pie tēviem iet?
Time for me to go to my fathers?
Vēl iedzert sīvo gribās, gribās
I still want to drink spirits, I want to drink
Un mīlēt mazuliet.
And love my baby.
Pirtī, somu pirtī iesim mēs,
We'll go to the sauna, the Finnish sauna,
Pirtī, visus tur mūs izārstēs,
In the sauna, they'll heal us all,
Pirtī, tāds, kāds esi, sārts un pliks,
In the sauna, just as you are, naked and red,
Pirtī, prom uz upi bariņā žviks!
In the sauna, off to the river in a group, quickly!
Klau, pirtniek, cik te grādu, grādu?
Listen, sauna attendant, how many degrees, degrees?
Oi, oi, 130!
Oh, oh, 130!
senās jaunības dienās, dienās
Like in the old days of youth, days
Sirds neprātīgi sit.
My heart beats wildly.
Es taisos upē mesties, mesties
I'm going to throw myself into the river, throw myself
Var trieka mani ķert,
I might get a stroke,
Bet es vēl gribu mīlēt, mīlēt
But I still want to love, to love
Mazlietiņ sīvo mest.
To throw a little bit of spirits.
Pirtī, upes malā somu pirts,
In the sauna, by the river, Finnish sauna,
Pirtī kļūstu jauns un jauna sirds,
In the sauna, I become young and have a young heart,
Pirtī, sirds man pēkšņi bailēs gurst,
In the sauna, my heart suddenly shakes with fear,
Pirtī, mājās pirti vecene kurs.
In the sauna, at home the old woman curses the sauna.
