Translation of the song lyrics Musketieru dziesma - Imants Kalniņš, Zigfrīds Muktupāvels, Ainars Mielavs

Musketieru dziesma (original)

Tie, kas rāpo, tie, kas lido
Tie, kas taisni, tie, kas klibo
Visiem dzīve aiziet zibot
Visiem dzīves žēl
Kā to dzīvi vajag dzīvot?
Vai to nemīlot vai mīlot?
Vai kā vējam pāri plīvot?
Jautā vēl un vēl
Katram kaut kur drīz ir jābūt
Katrs domā - varbūt, varbūt…
Katram kaut ko vajag dabūt
Katram kaut kas tiek
Vienam ērtāk līst uz ceļiem
Cits iet platiem, taisniem ceļiem
Dzīve pilna ceļu ceļiem
Katrs kaut kur tiek
Tie, kas rāpo — kas jūs esat?
Tie, kas lido — kas jūs esat?
Spārni, vai jūs ērgļus nesat?
Tāds ir jautājums
Tas ir jāuzdod sev pašam
Tas ir jāatbild sev pašam
Tas ir jautājums sev pašam
Tas ir sauciens mums
Tas vienalga mierā neliks
Bēgsi prom, bet sāpes paliks
Tas ir mūžs un tas ir galīgs
Tas ir svētais «sākt!»
Katru stundu — vismaz stundu
Katru mirkli — vismaz mirkli
Ja tu esi, tad tu neļauj
Cilvēcību krāpt

(translation)

Those who crawl, those who fly
The upright, the lame
Life goes by for everyone
Everyone is sorry for life
How should that life be lived?
To hate it or to love it?
Or how to fly over the wind?
Ask again and again
Everyone has to be somewhere soon
Everyone thinks - maybe, maybe...
There's something for everyone
There is something for everyone
It is more convenient for one to rain on the roads
Another takes wide, straight roads
Life is full of roads
Everyone gets somewhere
The Creepers - Who Are You?
Those Who Fly - Who Are You?
Wings, do you carry eagles?
That is the question
You have to ask yourself
You have to answer that for yourself
That's a question for yourself
It is a cry for us
It will not rest anyway
You will run away, but the pain will remain
It's forever and it's final
This is the holy "begin!"
Every hour - at least an hour
Every moment - at least a moment
If you are, then you do not allow
Deceive humanity
