Текст и перевод песни Raimonds Pauls - Nenopūt sveci

Nenopūt sveci

Nenopūt šonakt sveci, esi tik labs.
Lai deg, lai izdeg līdz galam,
Varbūt tad naktis, atkal naktis kāps.
Ausmā pasmaidīs rīts kā jūrā sala.

Cik gan ilgi tā cilvēks var bezmiegu brist,
Velkot līdzi ar virvēm sasietas ilgas.
Palūk, cik grāvī smaida auseklis
Un gurdās kājas mierinoši noglauž
Smilgas, smilgas, smilgas,
Noglauž smilgas, smilgas, smilgas, smilgas.

Nenopūt šonakt sveci, ļauj tai zust.
Ļauj savam logam iegrimt tumsā
Neredzamā, neredzamā.
Tad beidzot ceļš pie tevis zudis būs.
Miers ienāks, ienāks nogurušā namā,
Nogurušā namā, noguru ...

Don't Blow Out the Candle

Don't blow out the candle tonight, just be good.
Let it burn, let it burn all the way through,
Maybe then the nights, the nights will rise again.
At dawn the morning will smile like an island in the sea.

How long can a man go without sleep,
Dragging along his longings tied with ropes.
Look, how the morning star smiles in the ditch
And gently strokes your tired legs
Grass, grass, grass,
Gently strokes the grass, grass, grass, grass.

Don't blow out the candle tonight, let it go.
Let your window sink into darkness
Invisible, invisible.
Then finally the path to you will be lost.
Peace will enter the weary house,
The weary house, the weary ...
