| Lapsa Kūmiņš raugās
| The fox Kūmiņš watches
|
| Raugās visās spraugās
| Looks in all the gaps
|
| Ielīst visur gribās
| Sneak in everywhere you want
|
| Norausies pa ribām
| It will fall on the ribs
|
| Un tikko, tikko dienasgaisma aust
| And barely, barely daylight weaves
|
| Lapsa Kūmiņš iet snaust
| The fox Kūmiņš goes to sleep
|
| Viņš taču nevar stereotipus lauzt
| However, he cannot break stereotypes
|
| Viņš naktī ies savus labumus raust
| He will go about his benefits at night
|
| Tad ķeriet viņu aiz astes
| Then grab him by the tail
|
| Ķeriet lapsu aiz astes
| Catch the fox by the tail
|
| Ķeriet kamēr vēl var
| Catch while you can
|
| Lapsa Kūmiņš smaida
| The fox Kūmiņš is smiling
|
| Mēs zinām, zinām ko viņš gaida
| We know, we know what to expect
|
| Bet var jau būt, piemēram, ka rīt
| But it may already be like that tomorrow
|
| Kūmiņš pārstās muļķi dzīt
| Cumina will stop driving the fool
|
| Un kļūs par svēto. | And will become a saint. |
| Nesmīdiniet mani
| Don't smile at me
|
| Katram savas avis, katram savi gani
| Each has its own sheep, each has its own shepherds
|
| Tad ķeriet viņu aiz astes
| Then grab him by the tail
|
| Ķeriet lapsu aiz astes
| Catch the fox by the tail
|
| Ķeriet kamēr vēl var
| Catch while you can
|
| Katram savs
| Each have their own
|
| Mīliet gudros un svētos
| Love the wise and holy
|
| Mīliet tos, kas grēko
| Love those who sin
|
| Mīliet dārgos un lētos
| Love expensive and cheap
|
| Darbadienās un svētkos
| On weekdays and holidays
|
| Lapsa kūmiņš smaida
| The fox crawl smiles
|
| Mēs zinām ko viņš… mēs zinām, zinām…
| We know what he… we know, we know…
|
| Ķeriet viņu aiz astes
| Catch him by the tail
|
| Ķeriet lapsu aiz astes
| Catch the fox by the tail
|
| Ķeriet kamēr vēl var | Catch while you can |
