Pieta(original) |
V rohu náměstí, kousek od nádraží |
Pod černým baldachýnem komínem vytvořeným |
Němá bolestí stála nad drenáží |
Madona s mrtvým synem umučeným |
Stála zmatená nenadálým hlukem |
Na ruce déšť jí padal jak slzy velekněze |
Trochu zděšená podnapilým plukem |
Co vůbec nevypadal na vítěze |
R: Stojíce u Piety kouřili cigarety |
A šnapsem žízeň hnali kilometr klusem |
Kuplety z kabaretu zpívali pro Pietu |
A když je dozpívali, otřásli se hnusem |
Měli monstrance cestou nakradené |
A snímky pro rodiny, jež léta neviděli |
Místní sebrance, válkou nakažené |
Tu trochu zeleniny záviděli |
. |
Holky z ulice trochu pomuchlali |
A pak jim zaplatili držadlem bajonetu |
Sklady munice pečlivě zavírali |
A pak se posadili pod Pietu |
R: Sedíce pod Pietou cpali se omeletou |
Hlasitě nadávali na pitomou nudu |
Čmárali po Pietě pozdravy Mariettě |
Kterou si půjčovali, neznajíce studu |
Jednu neděli polní zabalili |
Poslední pohlednici příbuzným odeslali |
Potom odjeli, aniž zaplatili |
Na cestě železnicí usínali |
Nikdo neplakal, nikdo nelitoval |
Nikoho nebolelo, že jeli bez loučení |
Někdo přitakal, jiný poděkoval |
Nikomu nescházelo poroučení |
R: A jenom pod Pietou holčičku pětiletou |
Písmena zaujala načmáraná křídou |
Číst se však neučila, tak nápis pohladila |
Písmena rozmazala, zbytek umyl déšť |
Zbytek umyl déšť, zbytek umyl déšť … |
(translation) |
In the corner of the square, a short walk from the station |
Under a black canopy a chimney created |
Dumb in pain, she stood over the drain |
Madonna with her dead son tortured |
She stood confused by the sudden noise |
The rain fell on her hands like the high priest's tears |
A little horrified by the drunken regiment |
What he didn't look like a winner at all |
R: Standing at Pieta, they smoked cigarettes |
And the schnapps thirsted for a mile |
The cabaret couplets sang for Piet |
And when they had finished singing, they were displeased |
They had monsters stolen along the way |
And pictures for families who haven't seen in years |
Local sebrance, war-torn |
They envied some vegetables |
. |
The girls on the street squirmed a little |
And then they paid them with a bayonet handle |
They closed the ammunition depots carefully |
And then they sat down under Pieta |
R: Sitting under Pieta, they stuffed themselves with omelette |
They swore loudly at stupid boredom |
Greetings Marietta scribbled after Piet |
Which they borrowed, unaware of the shame |
One Sunday the field was packed |
They sent the last postcard to their relatives |
Then they left without paying |
They fell asleep on the way by rail |
No one cried, no one regretted it |
It didn't hurt anyone to go without saying goodbye |
Some nodded, others thanked |
No one missed orders |
R: And only under Pieta, a five-year-old girl |
The letters were drawn in chalk |
However, she did not learn to read, so she stroked the inscription |
The letters blurred, the rest washed by rain |
The rest was washed by rain, the rest was washed by rain… |
