| Basām kājām staigāt man ir bailes
| I have to be afraid to walk barefoot
|
| Un nav arī bijis izdevības
| And there was no opportunity
|
| Zem zolēm smailes vai rēķinu ailes
| Spikes or bill boxes under the soles
|
| Tik nenokrist zemē un nesalauzt ribas!
| So don't fall to the ground and break the ribs!
|
| Basām kājām staigāt man ir bailes
| I have to be afraid to walk barefoot
|
| Ai, cik gan asi papīri čaukstmalīgi griež
| Oh, how sharp the papers are
|
| Vai tapīri ir strīpaini… bet pakrūtē jau spiež
| Are the tapers striped… but already pressing in the chest
|
| Vai tapīri ir strīpaini, vai tapīri ir strīpaini?
| Are the tapers striped or are the tapes striped?
|
| Es nezinu, nē, nē
| I don't know, no, no
|
| Es nezinu, kas vārdā tev, tu nezini, kas man
| I do not know what your name is, you do not know who I am
|
| Bet iepūt kaķam bārdā un paklausies, kā skan
| But blow your cat's beard and listen to how it sounds
|

|

| But blow your cat's beard and listen to how it sounds
|
| Bet ja vēl nedzirdi nekā, tad iepūt
| But if you don't hear anything yet, breathe
|
| Tad iepūt, iepūt, iepūt, iepūt kur vien vēlies
| Then blow, blow, blow, blow wherever you want
|
| Jo agri esmu pamodies, bet pārāk vēlu cēlies es
| I woke up early, but I got up too late
|
| Un velti, velti mani mierināt
| And in vain, in vain comfort me
|
| Un velti mani mierināt, ka vēl nav nokavēts
| And it is in vain to reassure me that it is not overdue
|
| Skat, kur viens torņa galā tup un manā vietā brēc
| See where one squats at the end of the tower and screams in my place
|
| Skat, kur viens torņa galā tup un manā vietā brēc
| See where one squats at the end of the tower and screams in my place
