Текст и перевод песни Mārtiņa Freimaņa draugu koris - Pie Dieviņa gari galdi (Koncertieraksts)

Pie Dieviņa gari galdi (Koncertieraksts)

Pie Dieviņa gari galdi, gari galdi
Tur sēž pati mīļā Māra, mīļā Mār'

Tur sēž pati mīļā Māra, mīļā Māra
Villainītes rakstīdama, rakstīdam'.

Izrakstīja, saskaitīja, saskaitīja,
Dod Dieviņa rociņās(i), rociņās.

Nu, Dieviņi, Tava vaļa, Tava vaļa,
Nu Tavās(i) rociņās(i), rociņās.

Nu Tavās(i) rociņās(i), rociņās(i)
Pašas laimes atslēdziņa, atslēdziņ'.

Dod, Dieviņi, kalnā kāpt(i), kalnā kāpt(i),
Ne no kalna lejiņā(i), lejiņā.

Grūti bija kalnā kāpt(i), kalnā kāpt(i),
Vēl grūtāk(i) lejiņā(i), lejiņā.

Dod, Dieviņi, otram dot(i), otram dot(i),
Ne no otra mīļi lūgt(i), mīļi lūgt.

Otram devu dziedādama, dziedādama,
Mīļi lūdzu raudādama, raudādam'.

At God's Long Tables (Concert Recording)

At God's long tables, long tables
There sits my dearest Mary, dearest Mary

There sits my dearest Mary, dearest Mary
Writing villainies, writing.

She wrote them out, she counted them, she counted them,
She put them in God's hands, in his hands.

Now, God, it's your choice, it's your choice,
Now in your hands, in your hands.

Now in your hands, in your hands,
Key to my own happiness, key.

Grant me, God, to climb the mountain, to climb the mountain,
Not down the mountain, not down.

It was hard to climb the mountain, to climb the mountain,
Even harder down the mountain, down.

Grant me, God, to give to others, to give to others,
Not to ask sweetly from others, to ask sweetly.

I gave to others while singing, singing,
I begged sweetly while weeping, weeping.
