| Pa pasauli mūsu, kur viss ir tik strauji
| In the world of ours, where everything is so fast
|
| Mašīnas rūc un pagalmos ir kaujas
| Cars are roaring and there are battles in the yards
|
| Lēni, lēni, Atis ceļu mēro
| Slowly, slowly, Atis measures his way
|
| Uz pagasta centru ar kumeliņu bēro
| Go to the center of the parish with a chamomile
|
| Čīkstēja rati un vērojot skatu
| Squats and watching the view
|
| Viņšpieglauda matus, un padomāja: «āāā,
| He slapped his hair and thought, "Aha,
|
| Vēl jātiek līdz tirgum, jāpaņem pirkumi
| You still have to go to the market, take your purchases
|
| Jāpabaro zirgu, nu, kaut kātā…»
| You have to feed the horse, well, at least ātā »
|
| Garāmbraucēji taurēun sauc
| Passers-by call the trumpet
|
| Apdzen pajūgu, riepas tik kauc, lai kauc
| Drive the car, so that the tires are too loud
|
| Garāmbraucēji taurēun sauc
| Passers-by call the trumpet
|
| Stūri rausta un uzacis rauc, lai rauc
| The corners are twitched and the eyebrows are twitched to twitch
|
| Miests aiz miesta, viss iet kāpa sviestu
| City after city, everything goes up in butter
|
| Līdz vajadzības spiests Atis liek zirgam stāt
| Atis, pushed as needed, makes the horse stand
|
| Stāv, kaut ko bakstās, redz māla podu
| Standing, digging, sees a clay pot
|
| Domā: «kas tas tāds?», un pieiet tam klāt
| Think, "What's that?" And approach it
|
| Tai podābij'lati, tas Atim sāk patikt
| She podābij'lati, Atim is starting to like it
|
| Viņšpieglauda matus, un padomāja: «wow
| He slapped his hair and thought, «wow
|
| Te atlikt var tirgu, laist vaļāzirgu
| Here you can postpone the market, release a horse
|
| Ir iespēju virkne», un priekāsāk kaukt
| There are a number of possibilities »and it is better to cry
|
| Garāmbraucēji taurēun sauc
| Passers-by call the trumpet
|
| «Ko viņšstāv, te stāvēt nav ļauts!», nav ļauts
| "What he stands for is not allowed to stand here!", Is not allowed
|
| Garāmbraucēji taurēun sauc
| Passers-by call the trumpet
|
| «Nē, tu paskaties, vai tas nav viens pauts?», jānav
| "No, you see, isn't that a paut?"
|
| Bet tie, kam vēl uz lūpām piens
| But those who still have milk on their lips
|
| Vai mācīt var un spriest
| Can teach and judge
|
| Par to vai katrs pagrieziens
| About whether or not every turn
|
| Ir tas, kur iekšāgriest?
| Is this the inner ceiling?
|
| Bet tie, kam vēl uz lūpām piens
| But those who still have milk on their lips
|
| Vai mācīt var un spriest
| Can teach and judge
|
| Par to vai katrs pagrieziens
| About whether or not every turn
|
| Ir tas, kur iekšāgriest?
| Is this the inner ceiling?
|
| Hm… tātad podābij'lati, kas Atim tāpatīk
| Hm… so podābij'lati, which Atim likes
|
| Bet pirms palaist zirgu
| But before you run the horse
|
| No priekiem tiek žirgts
| It is a joy to ride
|
| Viņšapsēdās mirkli pasapņot kā:
| He sat down to dream for a moment as:
|
| Viņšpaņemtu podu, pa taisno uz bodi
| He would take the pot, straight to the body
|
| Pie smalkākāskrodera, kur jaunākās modes
| At the finest croder, where the latest fashions
|
| Un tie, kas man koda, nu atdos man godu
| And those who code me will give me honor
|
| Ja izspruktu lode, es izbēgtu sodus
| If I run out of bullets, I would escape penalties
|
| Bet redz, kas par jodu, kur dālderi rodas
| But see what about iodine where dallers occur
|
| Parādās kodes un kāds mani nodos
| Moths appear and someone will hand me over
|
| Kaut ar zin’vienalga, jo nauda tak valda
| Although it doesn't matter, its benefits are in control
|
| Un man tak būs dāmas, tās burvīgās dāmas
| And I will have ladies, those charming ladies
|
| Bet tām līdzi drāmas, un nav dzīves rāmas
| But they bring with them drama, and there is no serenity of life
|
| Un nav dzīves rāmas???
| And no life quiet ???
|
| Attapās Atis jau tikai pie ratiem
| Atis just got behind the cart
|
| Bez poda un latiem, vēl brīdi viņšstāv
| Besides the toilet and lats, he is still standing
|
| Pārdomās klusi, atskatījās drusku
| Reflected quietly, looked back a little
|
| Tad pārmeta krustu un atsāka braukt
| Then he was rebuked and resumed driving
|
| Bet tie, kam vēl uz lūpām piens
| But those who still have milk on their lips
|
| Vai mācīt var un spriest
| Can teach and judge
|
| Par to vai katrs pagrieziens
| About whether or not every turn
|
| Ir tas, kur iekšāgriezt?
| Is this where to cut in?
|
| Čīkstēja rati uz lielceļa platā
| Squats on the highway wide
|
| Un zirgs galvu kratot padomāja: «āāā
| And the horse shook his head, and said, Ah
|
| Jau tuvojas nakts, vēl jāaizved Atis
| Night is approaching, Atis has yet to be taken away
|
| Jo kur viņšviens pats, nu kaut kātā…» | Because wherever he is, somewhere in the stalk… » |
