Sneci Blues - Jaromír Nohavica перевод на английский

Sneci Blues

Jednou jeden šnek
šíleně se lek
Nikdo už dnes neví
Z čeho se tak zjevil
že se dal hned na útěk
Přes les a mítinu
Rychlostí půl metru za hodinu
Z ulity pára
Ohnivá čára
Měl cihlu na plynu
Ale v jedné zatáčce
Tam v mechu u svlačce
Udělal šnek chybu
Nevyhnul se hřibu
Nevyhnul se bouračce
Hned seběhl se celý les
A dali šneka pod pařez
Tam v tom lesním stínu
Jestli nezahynul
Tak leží ještě dnes
A kdyby použil vůz
Anebo autobus
Nebylo by nutné
Zpívat tohle smutné
Smutné šnečí blues

Snail Blues

Once upon a time there was a
snail who was really scared
Nobody knows today
what he saw
that made him start running away
Across the forest and the meadow
At the speed of half a meter per hour
Steam out of the shell
A fiery line
He had his foot on the gas
But in one bend
There in the moss by the bindweed
The snail made a mistake
He didn't avoid the mushroom
He didn't avoid the crash
The whole forest ran up immediately
And put the snail under a stump
There in the forest's shade
If he didn't die
Then he's still lying there today
And if he had used a car
Or a bus
It wouldn't have been necessary
To sing this sad
Sad snail blues
