Original text with translation
Helena Vondráčková
Měl modré oči, stoupl si mi do cesty
tak zčistajasna, jak by z nebe spad',
sáh' dvěma prsty do kapsičky u vesty
a pak se zeptal: kterou vám mám dát teď zahrát?
Řekla jsem si, ať to osud rozhodne,
vsaďte si, pane, jako v ruletě.
Pak vhodil minci a já byla toho dne
ta nejšťastnější holka na světě.
Orchestrion hraje tu mou
a se mnou otáčí se sál.
Orchestrion hraje tu mou,
nechci se ptát, co bude dál.
Snad jedenkrát mi láska víc,
než jen tu jednu píseň dá.
Krásná i smutná je
hlavně, když dohraje,
to vím i já.
Já vím, to možná ani láska nebyla,
on se mi prostě líbil a nic víc
i já jsem se mu možná trošku líbila
a víc jsme si už nestačili říct
v ten večer.
Proč vám to, pane, vlastně všechno vyprávím?
Vy náhodou jste pustil právě tu,
tu píseň, jejichž tónů se už nezbavím,
jak zněly tenkrát na tom parketu.
Orchestrion hraje tu mou
a se mnou otáčí se sál.
Orchestrion hraje tu mou,
nechci se ptát, co bude dál.
Snad jedenkrát mi láska víc,
než jen tu jednu píseň dá.
Krásná i smutná je
hlavně, když dohraje,
to vím i já.
Orchestrion hraje tu mou
a se mnou otáčí se sál.
Krásná i smutná je
hlavně, když dohraje,
to vím i já.
He had blue eyes, you stood in my way
as clear as it would fall from the sky,
reach into the waistcoat pocket with two fingers
and then he asked: which one should I give you to play now?
I told myself that fate would decide
bet, sir, like roulette.
Then he tossed the coin and I was that day
the happiest girl in the world.
The orchestra plays mine
and the hall turns with me.
The orchestra plays mine,
I don't want to ask what's next.
Maybe once I love me more,
than he will give that one song.
She is beautiful and sad
especially when he finishes
I know that too.
I know, maybe it wasn't even love,
I just liked him and nothing more
I might have liked him a little too
and we didn't have time to say more
that evening.
Why am I telling you everything, sir?
You just happened to let go
that song whose tones I won't get rid of anymore,
as they sounded on the floor at the time.
The orchestra plays mine
and the hall turns with me.
The orchestra plays mine,
I don't want to ask what's next.
Maybe once I love me more,
than he will give that one song.
She is beautiful and sad
especially when he finishes
I know that too.
The orchestra plays mine
and the hall turns with me.
She is beautiful and sad
especially when he finishes
I know that too.
