Paroles et traduction Karel Gott - Jeden Muzikant

Jeden Muzikant

Jeden muzikant se do kytáry zbláznil
Od bílého rána jen brnkal nic víc
I lásky a flámy, neprožíval s námi
A sám s dívkou být, tak nevěděl co říct

Do strun sáhnul a hrál
Byl v té chvíli král
Cejch svůj, když pálil do antén
Ze strun stříbrných hřměl vulkán, zněl smích
Kvetly náruče chrizantém

On nespal nejed, věčně hrál třeba grátis
Jen prázdný kamrlík a mládí to tam
A já se ho ptával, zda má tohle smysl
Nemít ani flok, věčně žít takhle sám

Do strun sáhnul...
...náruče chrizantém

Pak lůžko ve špitále a ticho a prázdno
Už málo je času i sil ke vzdorům
Ale ten muzikant pane jó ten si troufal
Popad nástroj svůj a utek doktorům

Do strun sáhnul.
...náruče chrizantém

One Musician

One musician went crazy for the guitar
From early morning he only strummed and nothing more
Even love and flames, he didn't experience with us
And to be alone with a girl, he didn't know what to say

He reached for the strings and played
He was a king at that moment
His brand, when he burned into the antennas
From the silver strings thundered a volcano, laughter sounded
Bouquets of chrysanthemums blossomed

He didn't sleep, didn't eat, always played, even for free
Just an empty cubicle and youth there
And I asked him if this made sense
To have no money, to live like this forever alone

He reached for the strings...
...bouquets of chrysanthemums

Then a hospital bed and silence and emptiness
There is little time and strength left for resistance
But the musician, oh boy, he dared
Grabbed his instrument and escaped the doctors

He reached for the strings.
...bouquets of chrysanthemums
