Paroles et traduction Raimonds Pauls - Vientulība

Vientulība

Vientulība nav tur,
Kur esmu viena ar sevi.
Tur tikai klusums
Glaužas klāt kā viltīgs lūsis,
Paslēpis nagus mīkstajās ķepās.
Ja nekaitina, lūsis neskrāpē,
Ja nekaitina, lūsis neskrāpē.

Vientulība iznāk pa kādām durvīm,
Aiz kurām nozuda cilvēks,
Kurš mani nepamanīja.
Aiz savas ēnas toties mani pamanīja
Vientulība.
Pienāca blakus, cieši blakus
Vientulība.

Apkārt murd iela kā zivjupils tīkls
Okeāna bangās.
Cilvēki desmiti, simti un tūkstoši
Nāk pretī, iet garām,
Nāk pretī, iet garām.
Atskan kāds sveiciens,
Pazib kāds smaids.

Bet no manis ne soli neatiet
Vientulība, vientulība,
Kura iznāca pa durvīm,
Aiz kurām nozuda cilvēks.

Vientulība
Tur mani ciet ar aukstu roku,
Skatās manī ar aukstām acīm,
Elpo man virsū aukstu dvašu,
Smej savus smieklus,
Raud aukstas asaras.

Vientulība nav tur,
Kur esmu viena ar sevi.
Tur tikai klusums
Glaužas klāt kā viltīgs lūsis,
Paslēpis nagus mīkstajās ķepās.
Ja nekaitina, lūsis neskrāpē,
Ja nekaitina, lūsis neskrāpē.

Vientulība iznāk pa kādām durvīm,
Aiz kurām nozuda cilvēks,
Kurš mani nepamanīja.
Aiz savas ēnas toties mani pamanīja
Vientulība.
Pienāca blakus, cieši blakus
Vientulība.

Ja tu zinātu, cik vientulība auksta,
Tu atvērtu man savas durvis
Un uzvārītu man karstu aveņu tēju.

Loneliness

Loneliness is not where,
Where I am alone with myself.
There is only silence
Creeping up like a cunning lynx,
Hiding its claws in soft paws.
If not irritated, the lynx does not scratch,
If not irritated, the lynx does not scratch.

Loneliness comes out through some door,
Behind which a person disappeared,
Who did not notice me.
But behind my shadow, loneliness noticed me
Loneliness.
Came close, very close
Loneliness.

The street buzzes around like a fishing net
In the ocean waves.
People, dozens, hundreds, and thousands
Come towards, pass by,
Come towards, pass by.
A greeting sounds,
A smile flashes.

But loneliness does not take a step away from me,
Loneliness, loneliness,
Which came out through the door,
Behind which a person disappeared.

Loneliness
Holds me tight with its cold hand,
Looks at me with cold eyes,
Breathes its cold breath on me,
Laughs its laughter,
Cries cold tears.

Loneliness is not where,
Where I am alone with myself.
There is only silence
Creeping up like a cunning lynx,
Hiding its claws in soft paws.
If not irritated, the lynx does not scratch,
If not irritated, the lynx does not scratch.

Loneliness comes out through some door,
Behind which a person disappeared,
Who did not notice me.
But behind my shadow, loneliness noticed me
Loneliness.
Came close, very close
Loneliness.

If you only knew how cold loneliness is,
You would open your door to me
And make me a hot raspberry tea.
