Lyrics of Obok nas - Czesław Niemen, Akwarele

Obok nas (original)

Gdzieś obok nas, obok nas życia nurt
Obok nas świateł blask, miasta rytm, gwar i szum
Obok nas płynie tłum, obok nas
Tyle zmian, niesie czas, dzieje się tyle spraw
A my, jak we śnie, jak we śnie, jak we mgle
Razem wciąż, sami wciąż, oczy twe, usta twe
Ja i ty, tylko ty, na co nam świat, na co czas?
To wszystko trwa obok, obok nas
Wciąż obok nas, obok nas życia nurt
Kocham twych oczu blask, pragnę wciąż twoich, twoich ust
Ale spójrz, ale patrz, ile zmian wokół, wokół nas
Dzieje się tyle spraw, życie ma wiele barw!
Więc chodź póki czas z życia pić każdy haust
Czerpać je, wdychać je, poznać trud, poznać gniew
Szczęścia smak, walki smak, bo żaden cień, żaden blask
Nie może przejść obok, obok nas
Nie może przejść obok, obok nas

(translation)

Somewhere next to us, next to us, the current of life
Next to us, the glow of lights, the city's rhythm, buzz and noise
A crowd is swimming next to us, next to us
So many changes, it brings time, so many things happen
And we are as in a dream, as in a dream, as in a fog
Together still, alone still, your eyes, your mouth
Me and you, only you, what do we need the world for, what time?
It all continues next to us
Still next to us, next to us is the current of life
I love your eyes glow, I still want your, your lips
But look, but watch how many changes around, around us
There are so many things happening, life has many colors!
So come on while it's time to drink every gulp of your life
Take it, inhale it, know hardship, know anger
Taste happiness, taste fights, because no shadow, no sparkle
He cannot pass by, next to us
He cannot pass by, next to us
