Текст и перевод песни Richard Müller - Studna

Studna

Nahol sa nad starú studňu
Padá dole
Klesá ku dnu
Klesá ku dnu dolu hlavou
A tvári sa nechápavo

Je to celkom pekná studňa
Cesta ku dnu nie je nudná
Minúta v tom valci vody
Zdá sa ako 10 hodín

Klesá ku dnu vidí skaly
V ktorých studňu vykopali
Naposledy ľudské oči
Boli v studni pred storočím

Posledné zásoby vzduchu
čo vdýchol hore na suchu
Míňajú sa pomalinky
Niet už vzduchu na bublinky

Nadýchne sa vody chladnej
Onedlho bude na dne
Všade voda samá voda
Bez boja sa vode oddá

Klesá ako zo železa
Voda v studni čistá, svieža
Radosť umrieť v takej studni
A počkať v nej na deň súdny

Klesá ku dnu celkom kľudne
Na dne vidí ducha studne
Duch studne mu prívetivo
A priateľsky vezme život

The Well

I lean over the old well
It falls down
It sinks to the bottom
It sinks to the bottom, head down
And looks puzzled

It's quite a nice well
The journey to the bottom isn't boring
A minute in that water cylinder
Seems like 10 hours

It sinks to the bottom, it sees rocks
In which the well was dug
The last time human eyes
Were in the well was a century ago

The last of the air supply
That he inhaled up on dry land
Is running out slowly
There's no more air for bubbles

He inhales the cold water
He'll be at the bottom soon
Everywhere, nothing but water
He surrenders to the water without a fight

He sinks like iron
The water in the well, pure, fresh
It's a pleasure to die in such a well
And wait in it for the day of judgment

He sinks to the bottom quite calmly
At the bottom he sees the spirit of the well
The spirit of the well, in a friendly manner
And takes his life in a friendly way
