On Ash Wednesday everything is over

On Ash Wednesday everything is over,
The vows of fidelity, they break apart
I am not supposed
To know anything about your kisses any more
How beautiful it may be
Then, everything is over
 
Toast to the joy, because today is today
Things that delight never made regret
Fill up the goblet with levity
Carnival, carnival
 
If you have the opportunity for kissing
Man, then go for it with audacity
Never say no when luck awaits you
Soon the finale will sound
 
On Ash Wednesday everything is over...
 
On Ash Wednesday everything is over...
 

Song of young nature scientists

The homeland has made herself pretty, and dew sparkles in her hair.
The waves reflect her splendour like clear happy eyes.
The meadow blooms, the fir tree rustles, they act secretively.
Quick, intercept that secret, which shall make us happy.
 
The wind also brushes through forests and fields, it whispers greetings to us.
We are on familiar terms with fishes and badgers and birdlife.
Our hand guards the plants and animals of the homeland.
And we shall reap plentiful harvest, where today still are swamps and sand.
 
We break into the darkness, follow calls and trails.
And when we'll have knowledge1, nature will yield to us.
The flower opens to the light, our heart [opens] to the future.
The homeland raises her head and smiles towards the sun.

Nighttime Rain

Until sleep overtook me, I listened to it
and was later awakened by the sound.
Now I hear it and feel it,
its rushing roar fills the night
with a thousand voices damp and cool,
whispering, laughing, sighing.
Enchanted, I listen to the throng
of soft, flowing sounds.
After all the hard, dry sounds
of the harsh, sunny days,
how fervently it calls out, how blissfully fearful
is the rain's soft lament!
 
In the same way, a fountain of tears,
once just the childish air of sobbing,
bursts forth from a proud heart,
a heart so brittle,
and flows and laments and releases the spell
so that which had gone silent can speak
and it clears the way for new happiness and suffering
and expands the soul.
 

UNA SERA DI TOKYO (One Evening of Tokyo)

Somehow, tears are filling my eyes though there is not anything grievous.
Una sera di Tokyo (One evening of Tokyo), ah-.
Why did we part though he is not a wrong'un?
Una sera di Tokyo (One evening of Tokyo), ah-.
 
Did he already forget all about me? I cannot stand such a sorrow.
 
Crowds of people retreating into the city twilight look happy only from the backs.
Una sera di Tokyo (One evening of Tokyo), ah-.
 
Did he already forget all about me? I cannot stand such a sorrow.

O night is falling o upon Tokyo.
 

Heads or tails

Today it's raining
in the valley
and Roncocesi1 is far back by now
I come home
like the dogs
to savage
the kites
yeah
 
Heads or tails
time passes
short pants2, and then
in a moment
memories
goosebumps
and a tear
worth half a dime
 
Where might you be,
my home,
how might you be,
my life
 
Oh, no no no
floating in the air
and you turn away
like flwers
oh, no no no
like feathers in the air
taken away, we are alone

I quietly come back
'cause what I'm looking form by now
it's already far.

Mother, Last Night in the Trenches

Walking through the field
On the ground I saw there was
A bloodstained letter
From 40 years ago
 
It was from a paratrooper
Of the eighth company
Who wrote to his mother
And this is what the letter said:
 
Mother, last night in the trenches
Among the shrapnel fire
I saw the enemy run
The night was pitch black
 
I aimed with my rifle
And at the same time I fired
A light illuminated
The face of the one I killed
 
It was my friend Jose
My classmate from school
The one I played so much with
At 'soldiers and trenches'1
 
Today the game was real
And they've already buried my friend
Mother I want to die
I'm sick of this war
 
Mother if I write again
It will perhaps be from heaven
Where I'll find Jose
And we'll play again
 
If my blood were ink
And my heart an inkwell
With the blood of my veins
I would write to you, 'I love you'
 
Lalalalala (ooh-ah-ooh)
Lalalalala (ooh-ah-ooh)
Lalalalala (ooh-ah-ooh)
Lalalalala (ooh-ah-ooh)

Mother, Last Night in the Trenches

Mother, last night in the trenches,
Among the shrapnel fire,
I saw the enemy run,
It was a starry night.
 
I aimed with my rifle, la, la, la
And at the same time I fired, ooh-ah-ooh
A light illuminated, la, la, la
The face of the one I killed, ooh-ah-ooh.

No One else

I will not forgive you even when the heart is not wounded
Almost going crazy, if good for you without me
I don't know anymore
 
Soon I will quietly swear that you should come
Hope life is good for you, good for you with him
 
You have something unique to you alone
I admit that at night when you did not stay
A blind man still searches for the way to love
no longer complete, the quiet still hurts
In (feelings of) love i no longer touch
Your beauty still is pictured with your steps in imagination
 
The happiness plays for you and the loneliness surrounds
Never forget that it is good for you without me
to whom do you get close?
 
Soon i will fall apart in the coming silence
i hope that it is good for you, good for you with him
 
You have something unique to you alone
I admit that at night when you did not stay
A blind man still searches for the way to love
no longer complete, the quiet still hurts
In (feelings of) love i no longer touch
Your beauty still is pictured with your steps in imagination
 

Vučija mećava

Ovi ožiljci su dugo žudeli za tvojim dodirom
Da spoji nam sudbine, nek su proklete zvezde
Raspori mi srce, ispuni ga s ljubavlju
Ka satkanoj sudbini prema kojoj oboje putujemo.
 
Sa prvim zrakom sunca nestaješ mi iz snova
Tvoj je miris sladji od jagoda i od ranog ljiljana
Pa sanjam gavranove okove ispletene, olujne
I ljubičaste oči, blistave dok plačeš.
 
Vuka bih pratila u snežnoj mećavi,
Da nadjem tvoje srce, i izgubljenu strast
Usred ljutnje i sete što mi srce pretvara u kamen
U hladnoći da osetim tvoj topli zagrljaj.
 
Sa prvim zrakom sunca nestaješ mi iz snova
Tvoj je miris sladji od jagoda i od ranog ljiljana
Pa sanjam gavranove okove ispletene, olujne
I ljubičaste oči, blistave dok plačeš.
 
Ne znam da li će nas sudbina ikada spojiti
Ili smo se igrom ljubavi pronašli nas dvoje
Želja koju sam šaptala, kada je sve počelo
Da li je iskovala ljubav koju nikad pronašao nisi?
 
Sa prvim zrakom sunca nestaješ mi iz snova
Tvoj je miris sladji od jagoda i od ranog ljiljana
Pa sanjam gavranove okove ispletene, olujne
I ljubičaste oči, blistave dok plačeš.
 

Give gold to your Witcher

As a bard once,
could share his path
with Geralt of Riva,
these lines originated.
 
When the white wolf
fought a devil
while his elven army.
pivoting next to his hooves
 
They chased me
With masterful deceit
They breaked my lute,
and kicked into my face.
 
As the devil's horns,
skewered our meat,
so said the witcher,
one must not shed one's blood.
 
Give gold to your witcher,
you people of kindness,
you people of kindness,
Give gold to your witcher,
you people of kindness,
 
On the edge of this world
he fought the horn,
it plagued and struck you
and brought only wrath.
 
Against every elf,
he once fought
far away in the mountains
from which he came.
 
Razed the plague,
don't you even listen?
He is friend of all people
'therefore leave him alone'.
 
That was my tale
of this strong man
he fought the evil,
now toast to him!
 
Give gold to your witcher,
you people of kindness,
you people of kindness,
 
Oh, give gold to your Witcher
a friend of all people.
 
Give gold to your witcher,
you people of kindness,
you people of kindness,
 
 
Give gold to your witcher,
a friend of all people.
 
Give gold to your witcher,
you people of kindness,
you people of kindness,
 
Yes, give gold to your witcher
a friend of all people.
 

Throw a penny at your Witcher

When a humble bard
Meets during its journey
Geralt of Rivia,
Then comes this song:
 
Hunted down by the White-Wolf,
The greedy evil
Sent its elves
To spread confusion.
 
They laid into me
With a intense savagery.
They broke down my lute
And a few teeth too.
 
The goat and its eight horns
Was pounding our flesh
When the Witcher said:
'You make me bray!'
 
'This is not what happened. Where is your so-called new respect?
- New respect doesn't make History.'
 
Oh, throw a penny at your Witcher,
Fecund valley, fecund valley,
Throw a penny at your Witcher,
Oh fecund valley…
 
At the very end of the world,
He stands up to the Devil
Who was spreading upon us
Pain and sorrow.
 
He repelled alone
To their plateau
All the elf hordes
Which were spreading chaos.
 
He hunts vermin
At the risk of his life.
This humanity friend
Deserves some rest.
 
This discreet hero,
Glorified by my verses,
Protects us from Evil—
Hey, doesn't this deserve some ale?
 
Throw a penny at your Witcher,
Oh, fecund valley, fecund valley,
 
Throw a penny at your Witcher,
Friend of humanity!
 
Throw a penny at your Witcher,
Oh, fecund valley, fecund valley,
 
Throw a penny at your Witcher,
Friend of humanity!

Toss a coin to your Witcher]

When modest bard rested after work he's done
With Geralt of Rivia this song he sung.
 
With lofty devil the White Wolf fought till death
The cohorts of elves, he ripped apart, were countless.
 
They crawled from behind, though it's shame and disgrace
They broke my lute and rearranged my face.
 
That devil aimed its horn straight into my eye
And then the Witcher shouted ' Your time has come to die!'
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher, minted coin, minted coin,
Toss a coin to your Witcher, it will be all credited to you!
 
And though, to the end of the world he is ready to go
To destroy all the monsters, to kill all the foes
 
Over distant mountain pass he drove all the elves
High over the mountains for eternal rest
 
He doesn't hit the brow, but the eye, he was wounded, but survived
He is a friend to people, he always on our side
 
Why this animosity, I don't get all this fuss
He is defending us, so, fill up his glass!
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher, minted coin, minted coin,
Toss a coin to your Witcher, it will be all credited to you!

Toss a coin to your Witcher

When a humble bard
Graced a ride along
With Geralt of Rivia
Along came this song
 
From when the White Wolf fought
A silver-tongued devil
His army of elves
At his hooves did they revel
 
They came after me
With masterful deceit
Broke down my lute
And they kicked in my teeth
 
While the devil’s horns
Minced our tender meat
And so cried the Witcher
He can’t be bleat
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’
 
Toss a coin to Your Witcher
O’ Valley of Plenty
 
At the edge of the world
Fight the mighty horde
That bashes and breaks you
And brings you the morn’
 
He thrust every elf
Far back on the shelf
High up on the mountain
From whence it came
 
He wiped out your pest
Got kicked in his chest
He’s a friend of humanity
So give him the rest
 
That’s my epic tale
A champion prevailed
Defeated the villain
Now pour him some ale
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
And friend of humanity
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’
And friend of humanity
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’ Valley of Plenty
O’
 
Toss a coin to your Witcher
A friend of humanity
 

Strelac

Borba, spremna sam za borbu
Kažem da je ne želim,
Ali šta ako želim?
Jer okrutnost pobeđuje u filmovima,
Imam sto odbačenih govora koje sam ti zamalo rekla
 
Čas dođu, čas odu,
Iskočim iz voza, vozim se sama
Nikada nisam odrasla, postaje tako staro
Pomozi mi da te zadržim
 
Bila sam strelac, bila sam plen
Ko bi me ikada mogao napustiti, dušo?
Ali ko bi mogao ostati?
 
Mračna strana
Tražim tvoju mračnu stranu
Ali šta ako sam baš tu, tu, tu, tu?
I isekoh svoj nos da teram inat mom licu
I onda da mrzim svoj odraz godinama
 
Probudim se uveče,
Koračam kao duh,
Soba je u plamenu,
Nevidljivi dim
I svi moji heroji umiru sami,
Pomozi mi da te zadržim
 
Bila sam strelac, bila sam plen
Ko bi me ikada mogao napustiti, dušo?
Ali ko bi mogao ostati?
 
Jer oni gledaju kroz mene,
Oni gledaju kroz mene,
Oni gledaju kroz mene,
Možeš li ti da gledaš kroz mene?
Oni gledaju kroz
Oni gledaju kroz mene
Ja gledam kroz mene
Ja gledam kroz mene
 
Svi kraljevi konji,
Svi kraljevi ljudi
Nisu mogli da me opet spoje
Jer svi moji neprijatelji prvo su bili prijatelji
Pomozi mi da te zadržim
 
Bila sam strelac, bila sam plen
Ko bi me ikada mogao napustiti, dušo?
Ali ko bi mogao ostati?
Ko bi mogao ostati?
Ko bi mogao ostati?
Ko bi mogao ostati?
Ti bi mogao ostati
Ti bi mogao ostati
 
Borba
Spremna sam za borbu
 

School

Last Minutes
And everyone will go...
In their mysterious way where dreams come true
 
Still yesterday you were a child
And tomorrow will be your day
Already as an adult, that day begins
 
Bridge:
Recollect stuff there is .... for everyone
But there is something that all of us unites
Corridors of school .... memories of fun,
And the first love and troubles around
 
But those days are so unforgettable
And we are the last time in that room
And tomorrow everyone will go to their goal
 
Chorus:
I will miss you
- School...
It will never return...
I go to adult life by a purpose
- School .....
Everything that you gave me I will take with me (2 times)
 
There are so many different thoughts in your head
But only one defines who you will become
This is the thought of how to make this step
Not to stop before the moment you reach the goal

Never Go Out With You Again

Never again—I will never go out with you again
now that I see you as you really are.
I will remember that you were everything to me
but nothing more for you—do you know why?
I will never go out with you again—
I will never go out with you again.
 
I don't know if I will ever run into you again
now that all is over is between us.
But you can't destroy me
because I will be nothing more to you—
I will never go out with you again—
I will never go out with you again.
 
But if you still run into me, remember that
I'm not the same to you anymore
and never speak of the love between us—
it is all over.
 
Never again—I will never go out with you again
now that I see you as you really are.
I will remember that you were everything to me
but nothing more for you—do you know why?
I will never go out with you again—

I will never go out with you again—
I will never go out with you again—
I will never go out with you again—
I will never go out with you again ...
 

Books

All the books in this world
will not bring you happiness,
but secretly, they point you
back within yourself.
 
There lies everything you need,
sun, star, and moon,
because the light you're asking after
lives within yourself.
 
The wisdom you've long sought
in the libraries
now shines from every page -
because now it is yours.
 

To Stop You From Telling Me Goodbye

My only weapons
are my tears.
I no longer have anything
to stop you
from telling me
goodbye.
My only war—
a prayer.
I no longer have anything
to stop you
from telling me
goodbye.
I had my joie de vivre
and my bursts of laughter
and I wanted to follow you
but
all of this—
you no longer want it.
 
My only weapons
are my tears.
I no longer have anything
to stop you
from telling me
goodbye.
All lights off—
I offered you my hugs,
my sighs, and my complaints
but
all of this—
you no longer want it.
 
There remains for me
only a prayer.
I no longer have anything
to stop you
from telling me
goodbye.
 

Another Music

The fire that I feel inside
Is a sweet music that cannot escape,
A voice that shouts silently,
and eager, wants not to leave me.
 
The fire that I feel burns me,
For time is a thief and steals our fancies,
and I cannot challenge what it tells me:
“you... you have to find a way!”
 
But I turn about with the hope of meeting you,
Your voice sounds on and makes me tremble,
and now that I’ve nothing left to tell,
I fall asleep without touching you.
 
If we are to be too far apart,
What burns me and wants me to live no more,
Is the desire of holding you another time,
And the fear of not having the chance!
 
Yet I turn with the hope of meeting you,
Your voice sounds on and makes me tremble,
And for me, who has nothing left to tell,
A song comes in dream to give me voice.

'Yes, thank God, democracy has gone,

'Who worked and pay for the mansion?'
'None of your bloody business', he answered very grim

And I thought, bespectacled, meek and poor veteran:

He either put me against the wall, or was telling fortune on United Russia party card,

After all, I have my own family and kids in Volgograd

Icy
Wind disturbs my soul
What happened to me?
The whole month without sleeping
Cold
Both inside and out
Late is the spring
 
Make a wish
The ruler of the destinies
Has as many days
As much as you can withstand
Lets make a bet, that
Through the years you will want
To divide them in half?
 
[Chorus]
If I could be even one drop stronger
My eyes betray the fear
If only among the indifference not to forget
How to believe in wonders
 
Even stronger
The old wounds are hurting
Pain and hopelessness in my soul
Crushing down
All hopes and plans
I've lost control
 
Make a wish
The ruler of the destinies
Has as many woes
As much as you can tolerate
Only those-
Who suffer enough
Can find happiness
 
[Chorus]
 
How to believe in wonders...
How to believe in wonders...
 

Loneliness

From all you wish to save
From needless and unpleasant fellow travelers,
And from the billowy wing of loneliness
that promts a little thunderbolt in your forehead.
 
We were not given instructions for life,
But name, surname, patronymic.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
I’ll drive away your loneliness.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
I’ll drive away your loneliness.
 
You tread along a path without footsteps.
You wish to hug me all the time.
When the world and your dreams are teared down,
The waters fall without gnawing the stone.
 
Should I know where to fall or to recover
from fate, from evil prophecy.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
I’ll drive away your loneliness.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
I’ll drive away your loneliness.
 
We were not given instructions for life,
But name, surname, patronymic.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
I’ll drive away your loneliness.
Do not cry nor fear, be nearby and
your loneliness will vanish.
 

Hvatač snova

Hvataču snova, mogu da vidim kako mi mašeš sam iz noći
Spora zima, osećam da ću možda biti ostavljen na hladnoći
Ooh i ja umirem malo danas iznutra
 
I mogu da vidim da čekaš na svoju šansu da kreneš
 
Hvataču snova, kada si ležao u našem krevetu
Bili smo visoko, leteli
Lagani plesač, oslanjao sam se na tebe
Pokušavam da ugrabi nešto svetlosti
Ooh bebo ukloni
Ovaj košmar koji ostaje budan
I plašim se da smo u lavirintu koji smo stvorili
(oh oh oh oh)
 
Hvataču snova, mogu da te vidim zagledanog daleko
Bez odgovora, magije koja nam je uzela juče
Pero sudbine nalazi svoj put do mene
Kao vrba na vertu koka ne može da ostane
Ne može da ostane
Ne može da ostane
(Oh oh oh oh)
(oh oh oh oh)
 
Hvataču snova
Hvataču snova
Hvataču snova
Hvataču snova
 

Destroyer

Running towards the sunset
with a sorrow in my mind
Running away with the sun
and unreachable rainbow?
I was in love with you
woke up from such a dream
It was in vain, out of breath,
I realized that with vanity
 
As I rushed out, the dusk ran away
towards the dream I have thrown up, Destroyer
 
As if possessed,
Hurry, a frowning man!
Quizzicalness in hesitation
Run without looking aside
The color of my spirit
seek for and pick out from the today's rainbow
Extended to the panorama
the smell of the burning sun
 
As I rushed out, the dusk ran away
towards the dream I have thrown up, Destroyer
 
Let's make a promise to be here again
with swaying chase the sunset
 

German Champion

In life, for everyone there are
Two things that one cannot pick:
One's family, since it's already there beforehand,
And one's football club - sad, but true
I find all of my relatives pretty cool
My problem is my love for the FC!
Because I've had this dream for years
But it only seems to be red and white foam:
 
Once in my life, I want to be German Champion...
Right from the start, that would be
Too good to be true...
Once in my life, I want to be German Champion
But we're only a carnival club
 
Then a telegram would arrive: 'Congratulations to the West!
This year you've just been the very best
It's a beautiful thing that you made it!
I love you! Signed: Uli Hoeneß'
 
Once in my life, I want to be German Champion...
...
 
Cologne is the strongest favourite in the Champions League -
Only outsider chances for Real Madrid
Gladbach is sliding down the ranks again and plays fourth league now
The Bavarians play against Riga in the UEFA-Cup
 
Once in my life, I want to be German Champion...
...
 
The national coach celebrates: 'I love the kölsch Bock!
The national team rises and falls with the Cologne fanbase.'
Calmund starts a hunger strike - that's not healthy:
He now only weighs two hundred and sixty pounds...
 
Once in my life, I want to be German Champion...
 

Black pea-coats

Versions: #3
We left behind us all falls and sundowns,
Just hope for the minuscule, almost invisible rise!
I want to believe that our black pea-coats
Will give opportunity to see this sunrise.
 
Today we got orders: Die like true heroes!
We'll try! - but we could not guarantee.
I only thought, smoking borrowed cigarettes:
Each man on his own, - sunrise what matters to me.
 
Special company - sapper's special esteem.
Don't slash with a knife from the ambush unseen,
Don't trouble yourself - even with a throat cut
I will see sunrise as my final result.
 
We strolled through their rear, avoiding to cut them in slumber,
And cleared the passage, when I noted in surprise,
How immature, green, but wakeful sunflower
Already had turned its head to sunrise.
 
Behind at six thirty were left - I know,-
Not only falls and declines, but also reached height.
Teeth grinding, two bare wires are cleaned to go, -
Have not seen the sunrise, but knew: it is close to daylight.
 
... Depleted company returning severed.
What happened - doesn't matter, matters blown up fort.
I want to believe that our rough endeavor
Grants you opportunity to see sunrise with no effort.
 

A different flag

I'll sit here on the sand
And draw a big circle around myself
I'm waiting still since yesterday
For the right moment
For the rainbow to show
She'll piece together in me everything that
Fell apart and broke
Between all the points it'll
Trace a straight line
 
I learned from the water
How not to get stuck, to be free
Even if you see the sky
Even though every day I have a different flag
 
And even if the light now is only half lit
It's enough for me to not lose this
As long as I don't lose this
 
Who will piece together in me all that fell apart and broke
Between all the points who will trace a straight line
 

Richer Than A King

Too much money doesn't make me happy
too much money weighs heavily like lead,
because you can't buy what really counts
and so I guess it's all the same to me.
Too much money just leads to buying
and so I guess it's all the same to me.
 
I'm the master of my own fortune,1
what do I need of goods and money,
throw everything out the window,
it continues on this way in the world.
 
I am richer than a king,
let the moon be my silver,
yes, the sun and the stars,
for me, they're gold and gemstones.
Because freedom weighs more to me,
than all the riches in this world,
let's dance, let's live,
under the vast heavens.
 
Too much money just leads to envy,
who can you even trust,
false friends, all the flatterers,
Yes, hypocrisy and dread creep in.
 
I'm the master of my own fortune,
what do I need of goods and money,
throw everything out the window,
it continues on this way in the world.

let the moon be my silver,

for me, they're gold and gemstones.

Коначно имам некога

Зар не знаш
Да толико ствари дође и прође?
Као што су једном твоје речи одзвониле истином
Баш као и љубав коју сам мислила да сам нашла уз тебе
 
Сећам се грмљавине
Која је говорила о ватри у твојим очима
А ти си отишао када си ми највише био потребан
А сада, можда драги, можда драги
 
Коначно имам некога
Ко ће исцелити сломљено срце
Ко ће одагнати усамљеност
Коју сам осећала од када си отишао
Од када си отишао
 
Обриши сузе
Никада нисам подносила да те видим како плачеш
Једнога дана ће се твоја љубав проказати
И показаће ти осећања за која никада ниси знао
 
Драги, никада немој изгубити ту грмљавину
Која говори о ватри у твојим очима
Гледаш ме, али и даље не верујеш
Да можда драги, можда драги
 
Коначно имам некога
Ко ће исцелити сломљено срце
Ко ће одагнати усамљеност
Коју сам осећала од када си отишао
Од када си отишао
 
Предуго сам била на ивици
Питајући се да ли је твоја љубав заиста била моја
Али си ме оставио суочену са истином,
А када сам схватила...
 
Коначно имам некога
Ко ће исцелити сломљено срце
Ко ће одагнати усамљеност
Коју сам осећала од када си отишао
 
Коначно имам некога
Ко ће исцелити сломљено срце
Ко ће одагнати усамљеност
Коју сам осећала од када си отишао
Од када си отишао
 

Љубав и разумевање

Овде, на овом свету,
Куда идемо,
Где се можемо вратити,
Када нам је потребно мало љубави,
Изгледа да је не можемо пронаћи
Где, где се налазимо
Када оно што добијемо не одговара ономе што тражимо
 
Имамо довољно звезда да обасјају небо у ноћи,
Довољно сунца да обасја цео свет,
И имамо га више него довољно,
Али нам једне ствари никада није довољно
 
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања
Можемо искористити љубав да олакшамо тешка времена
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања, о, зашто, зашто, зашто
 
Проводимо све своје време
Градећи зграде до неба
Тражимо све осим онога што нам највише треба
Срце никада не може победити
О, у тој трци
У тој трци у којој учествујемо
 
Имамо довољно аутомобила да нас возе око света
Довољно авиона да нас одведу било где
Имамо их више него довољно
Али нам једне ствари никада није довољно
 
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања
Можемо искористити љубав да олакшамо тешка времена
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања, о, зашто, зашто, зашто
 
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања
Можемо искористити љубав да олакшамо тешка времена
Није нам довољно љубави и разумевања, о, зашто, зашто, зашто
 
Потребно нам је мало разумевања
Потребно нам је мало више љубави,
Мало љубави и разумевања,
Довољно звезда да обасјају небо у ноћи,
Довољно сунца да обасја цео свет,
Довољно срца да открије мало љубави у нама,
Имамо их више него довољно
Али нам једне ствари никада није довољно
