Lyrics and translation Olympic - Já (Sobectví)

Já (Sobectví)

Ve všem chtěl mít větší podíl
Pro jiné se nenarodil
Sám neuměl ničeho se vzdát
Jen ostatní za nos vodil
Myslel na to kudy chodil
A jen sebe upřímně měl rád
Každou větu začal slůvkem Já
Každou větu končil slůvkem Já

On nevěřiil na chiméry
A ve jménu kariéry
Nosil boty špičkou dozadu
Nikdy nepsal verše ženě
Vždy se tvářil unuděně
Když jsi k němu přišel o radu
Každou větu začal slůvkem Já
Každou větu končil slůvkem Já

Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já stačím si sám
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já stačím si sám
Já se mám

V očích led a vlhké dlaně
Usmíval se polekaně
V obavě, že budeš něco chtít
Velmi dbal na osobitost
Povýšil svou sebelítost
Na ten nejušlechtilejší cit
Každou větu začal slůvkem Já
Každou větu končil slůvkem Já

Vidíš ho, jak podle zvyku
Důstojně jde po chodníku
A nic kolem sebe nevnímá
Do stop padá sůl a písek
Jednoho dne nevrátí se
Nikdo si té ztráty nevšímá
Komu chybí jeho věčné Já
Jen ozvěna domů vzpomíná

Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já stačím si sám
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já, já, já, jenom já
Já stačím si sám
Já se mám

Me (Selfishness)

In everything he wanted to have a bigger share
He wasn't born for others
He himself couldn't give up anything
Only led others by the nose
Thought about it wherever he went
And only loved himself sincerely
He started every sentence with the word Me
He ended every sentence with the word Me

He did not believe in chimeras
And in the name of a career
He wore shoes with the tip backwards
He never wrote poetry for women
He always pretended to be bored
When you came to him for advice
He started every sentence with the word Me
He ended every sentence with the word Me

Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
I'm enough for myself
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
I'm enough for myself
I'm fine

Ice in his eyes and wet palms
He smiled timidly
In fear that you would want something
He greatly valued his individuality
He elevated his self-pity
To the most noble feeling
He started every sentence with the word Me
He ended every sentence with the word Me

You see him, as usual
Walking dignified along the sidewalk
And doesn't notice anything around him
Salt and sand fall into the footsteps
One day, he won't come back
No one will notice his loss
Who will yearn for his eternal Me
Only an echo remembers home

Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
I'm enough for myself
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
Me, me, me, only me
I'm enough for myself
I'm fine
