Paroles et traduction Raimonds Pauls feat. Margarita Vilcāne - Soļi Smiltīs

Soļi Smiltīs

Atnāk dienas, aiziet dienas,
Soļi smiltīs gaist.
Kādēļ dziesma, dziesma viena
Mūžam sāp un kaist.

Gadi iet un gadi smeldz
Kā dzērves zilgmē skrien.
Gadiem pāri skan arvien
Dziesma viena vien.

Atnāk dienas, aiziet dienas,
Soļi smiltīs gaist.
Kādēļ dziesma, dziesma viena
Mūžam sāp un kaist.

Un šajā brīdī pirmsatvadā,
Ko var sacīt, ko var pasacīt,
Ko var atvairīt, ko var paturēt?
Viss reiz zudīs, aizaugs ar atmiņām.
Tikai dziesma, tā tevi pavadīs,
Dziesma prasīs, vai mani atceries?
Visu mūžu tā tevi neatstās,
Būs sirdī, būs līdzās.

Atnāk dienas, aiziet dienas,
Soļi smiltīs gaist.
Tomēr dziesma, dziesma viena
Mūžam sāp un kaist.

Steps in the Sand

Days come, and days go by,
Footsteps fade in the sand.
Why is it, only one song
Forever aches and burns.

Years go by and years hurt
Like cranes flying in the sky.
Through the years, one song still rings
Just one song, time and time again.

Days come, and days go by,
Footsteps fade in the sand.
Why is it, only one song
Forever aches and burns.

And now, on the eve of our farewell,
What can be said, what can be told,
What can be cast aside, what can be kept?
All that is, will fade into memories.
Only the song, it will follow you,
The song will ask, do you remember me?
All your life, it will not leave you,
It will be in your heart, it will be near.

Days come, and days go by,
Footsteps fade in the sand.
Yet, the song, only one song
Forever aches and burns.
