Paroles et traduction Wabi Danek - Na Cestě

Na Cestě

Kdysi u silnice stával, deku do půl zad,
Ať si mával, jak si mával, nechtěli ho brát,
Nikdy Kerouaca nečet a neznal třetí proud,
Přesto býval spolu s Deanem každej víkend on the road.

Nikdy neměl ani zdání, jak se hrával bop,
Měl jen slinu na toulání a překážel mu strop,
životem na plný pecky a neubírat plyn,
Tuhle víru na svý pouti vždycky vzýval Sal i Dean.

Tak mi řekni, na co vlastně mám
Moudrosti vyčtený z knížek,
Co je dobrý, na to přijdu sám,
Co je špatný, za tím křížek udělám.

Tohle na cestě mi říkal, já ho kdysi vzal,
Potom zavolal jen: "Díky!" A já frčel dál,
Od těch dob jsem vždycky hlídal, ať kamkoliv jsem jel,
Nestojí-li u patníku se svou vírou Dean a Sal.

Vždycky u silnice stával, vlasy do půl zad,
Ať si mával, jak si mával, nechtěli ho brát,
Nikdy tuhle knížku nečet a neznal třetí proud,
Přesto býval spolu s Deanem každej víkend on the road.
On the road.

On the Road

Once I was standing by the road, a blanket on my back,
I waved and waved, but no one wanted to take me,
I never read Kerouac and I didn't know about the third stream,
Even so I was with Dean every weekend, on the road.

I never had a clue how to play bebop,
I just longed to roam free and the ceiling got in my way,
Life at full throttle and never let up,
This was the faith that Sal and Dean always invoked on their journeys.

So tell me, what do I really need with
Wisdom gleaned from books,
What is good, I'll figure out myself,
What is bad, I'll mark with a cross.

This is what he told me on the road, I took it to heart,
Then he just called out, "Thanks!" And I sped off,
Ever since then I've always made sure that wherever I go,
Dean and Sal aren't standing at the signpost with their faith.

He was always standing by the road, long hair on his back,
He waved and waved, but no one wanted to take him,
He never read this book and he didn't know about the third stream,
Even so he was with Dean every weekend, on the road.
On the road.
