Lyrics and translation Raimonds Pauls feat. Ojārs Grīnbergs - Karakalpa Dziesma

Karakalpa Dziesma

Tālē zilgmo sils, tālē izgaist ceļš.
Mana dziesma skan, dzimtā zeme tev!
Kalni, lejas sauc, dzidri strauti trauc,
Es šīs zemes dēls, es šīs zemes sargs.

Es mīlu to un solu tai,
Ja naidnieks nāks – tam pretī stāt.
Man kumeļš stalts un zobens ass,
Pukst krūtīs sirds tik zemei šai.
Lai meži šalc un druvas zeļ,
Lai tauta var te brīva būt.
Vai saule aust, vai saule riet -
Es varu cīņā iet.

Ciemā uguns spīd, māsa sagšu auž,
Ciemā kalve dun, brālis arklu kaļ,
Tēvu līdums kūp, šūpļa dziesma skan,
Es šīs zemes dēls, es šīs zemes sargs.

Karakalpa Song

Far away the forest turns blue, far away the road fades.
My song sounds, my homeland, for you!
Mountains, valleys call, clear streams rush,
I am the son of this land, I am the guardian of this land.

I love it and I promise it,
If the enemy comes, I will stand against him.
My horse is proud and my sword is sharp,
My heart beats only for this land.
Let the forests rustle and the fields grow,
Let the people be free here.
Whether the sun rises or the sun sets -
I can go into battle.

A fire burns in the village, my sister weaves a sash,
In the village the forge roars, my brother forges a plow,
My father's field smokes, the cradle song sounds,
I am the son of this land, I am the guardian of this land.
