Paroles et traduction Lačni Franz - Prvi maj

Prvi maj

Nocoj bo hladilnik spet zbudil
Nervozno pernato posrano bando
Na podstrešju
S palcem in kazalcem
Si zapiram hladne veke

Kot da mi jih zapira voda
Tik pod gladino kakšne reke
Kjer bi ta trenutek rad ležal
In sanjal, da se vozim
Z vlakom proti morju
Na vagonu, polnem posušenih poljskih rož
Ki ne dišijo več

Kolodvor me čaka na postaji
Nekaj praznujejo
Strah me je, da jih bom zunaj srečal
Srečne, zdrave, delovne ljudi
Ker bi rad za hip zamenjal z njimi
Prvi maj, ko se zdani

May Day

The refrigerator is going to wake up the nervous flock again tonight
Of feathered, crapping creatures in the attic
On the attic floor
With my thumb and forefinger
I shut my cold eyelids

As if water was shutting them
Just beneath the surface of a river
Where I would like to lie this very moment
And dream that I am riding
A train towards the sea
In a carriage full of dried wildflowers
That no longer have any scent

The station is waiting for me at the station
They are celebrating something
I am afraid that I will meet them outside
Happy, healthy, hard-working people
Because I would like to trade places with them for a moment
May Day, when dawn breaks
