| Spīd melna saule baltā dienā
| The black sun is shining on a white day
|
| Un melni ziedi jasmīnam
| And black flowers of jasmine
|
| Kam rakstīt sūdzību? | Who to write a complaint to? |
| Nevienam
| To no one
|
| Vairs baltas krāsas nav nekam
| No more white
|
| Baltas, baltas, baltas krāsas nav nekam
| White, white, white colors are nothing
|
| Baltas, baltas, baltas krāsas nav nekam
| White, white, white colors are nothing
|
| Ja kaķis melns un astes galiņš
| If the cat is black and the tip of the tail
|
| Nu dīvaini, ir tomēr balts
| Well strange, it's still white
|
| Man rūp šis nieks, man šodien palīdz
| I care about this trifle, it helps me today
|
| Pat melni kaķi apkārt šalc
| Even black cats chatter around
|
| Melni, melni, melni kaķi apkārt šalc
| Black, black, black cats chatter around
|
| Melni, melni, melni kaķi apkārt šalc
| Black, black, black cats chatter around
|
| Bet kādā krāsā tavas acis
| But what color are your eyes
|
| Vai tajās arī klusums melns?
| Is the silence black in them too?
|
| Pat zīlniece man nepasacīs
| Not even a fortune teller will tell me
|
| Vai mīļš tev eņģelis vai velns
| Have you an angel or a devil
|
| Spīd melna saule baltā dienā
| The black sun is shining on a white day
|
| Un slido sniegs kā nāves velns
| And the snow glides like the devil of death
|
| Dod manas govis melnu pienu
| Give my cows black milk
|
| Bet kaķim astes galiņš balts
| But the tip of the cat's tail is white
|
| Kaķim, kaķim, kaķim astes galiņš balts
| The tip of the tail is white for cats, cats and cats
|
| Kaķim, kaķim, kaķim astes galiņš balts
| The tip of the tail is white for cats, cats and cats
|
| Bet kādā krāsā tavas acis
| But what color are your eyes
|
| Vai tajās arī klusums melns?
| Is the silence black in them too?
|
| Pat zīlniece man nepasacīs
| Not even a fortune teller will tell me
|
| Vai mīļš tev eņģelis vai velns | Have you an angel or a devil |
