Mēmais sargs - Jauns Mēness

Sazin kur nezin kur

Tālu projām vai tepat līdzās

Es noteikti zinu, ka laiku pa laikam kāds dzied:

«Kam gan uguns tālā šoreiz spīdēs

Sargs mēmais kam mieru dos?»

Un lai kā gan es censtos

Nav bijis nekad lemts man redzēt

Vai jauns, vai vecs

Vai viņa vai viņš tas, kas dzied

Kur mani, kur mani kvēlā sārtā

Lej mani, lej mani vīnā sev

Dzer mani, dzer mani sausu ārā

Reibsti un aizmirsti kā Tevi sauc

Varbūt tā esi Tu

Vai tas nolemtais vīrs tur uz stūra

Vai tas nopērtais suns, kas pie ārdurvīm klusi smilkst:

«Kam gan uguns tālā šoreiz spīdēs?

Sargs mēmais kam mieru dos?»

Un lai kā gan es censtos

Nav bijis nekad lemts man zināt

Vai bailes, vai drosme

Vai spīts tas, kas lūdz

I know where I don't know where

Far away or right next door

I know for sure that from time to time someone sings:

"Whose fire will shine far away this time

Who will give peace to the dumb guard? ”

And no matter how hard I try

It was never destined to see me

Whether new or old

Is he or he the one who sings

Where me, where I glow pink

Pour me, pour me wine for yourself

Drink me, drink me dry outside

Drunk and forget what your name is

Maybe it's you

Is that destined man on the corner

Is it the beaten dog that sneaks quietly at the front door:

"Why will the fire shine far away this time?

Who will give peace to the dumb guard? ”

And no matter how hard I try

It was never destined for me to know

Whether fear or courage

Or whatever you ask
