Małe dzieci po to są - Anna Maria Jopek traduction en anglais

Małe dzieci po to są

One s¹.
Maj¹ niespokojn¹ przystañ
U ka¿dego z nas.
One s¹ demonami wojny,
Która tutaj wiecznie trwa.

Ka¿de wojnê toczy swoj¹
Prawie od pierwszego dnia.
Nie umiemy ich oswoiæ
Póki mamy na to czas.

Wielu wie, ¿e co damy dziecku
Tysi¹ckrotnie zwróci siê.
Czemu wiêc nie uczymy ich
Mi³oœci, zanim pojm¹, ¿e

Przegrywamy ka¿d¹ wojnê
Kiedy zaczynamy j¹.
A ci, którzy przyjd¹ po nas
Ju¿ nie wiedz¹, o co sz³o...

Kto to wie czy szaleñstwo nasze
Mia³oby rozmiary swe,
Gdyby cz³owiek zapamiêta³,
¯e dzieci s¹, by kochaæ je.

Z religii ka¿dej to
W pamiêci zawsze miej,
¿E ma³e dzieci po to s¹,
By kochaæ je.

A z najm¹drzejszych ksi¹g
Zachowaj tylko te,
Co mówi¹, ¿e dzieci
Po to s¹, by kochaæ je.

Little Kids Are Here for a Reason

They are.
They have a restless berth
In each of us.
They are the demons of the war,
Which is eternally going on here.

Everyone fights their own war
Almost from the first day.
We cannot tame them
While we have the time for it.

Many know that what we give to a child
Will pay us back a thousand times over.
So why don't we teach them
Love, before they realize, that

We lose every war
When we start it.
And those who will come after us
Will no longer know what it was all about...

Who knows if our madness
Would have such proportions,
If man would have remembered,
That children are to be loved.

From every religion
Always remember this,
That little kids are here for one reason,
To be loved.

And from the wisest of books
Remember only this,
That it says that children
Are here to be loved.
