Klauni - Andris Bērziņš, Раймонд Паулс

Vecs klauns man smejot teica:

«Šai dzīvē viss ir joks

Tā nauda, bauda, laime

Ir tikai apburts loks»

Nekas te nav pa īstam

Šai cirka arēnā

Mēs tā kā zvēri klīstam

Sen solī nolemtā

Un klauni zin' ko runā

Bez klauniem jau nekur

Šo zemeslodi veco

Simts klauni plecos tur

Un šūpina un mētā

Un krata tāpat vien

Tad joka pēc vēl iesper

Un smejot tālāk brien

Un klauni zin' ko runā

Bez klauniem jau nekur

Šo zemeslodi veco

Simts klauni plecos tur

Un šūpina un mētā

Un krata tāpat vien

Tad joka pēc vēl iesper

Un smejot tālāk brien

Mans draugs man gudri teica:

«Ne nieka nebaidies

Tās lietas, kuras sāpēs

Tāpat reiz notiksies»

Un tie, kas smejas, raudās

Ja netici, tad skat'

Tas cirks jau sen ir projām

Bet klauni vēl tepat

An old clown laughed at me and said:

"Everything in this life is a joke

Its money, enjoyment, happiness

There is only a vicious circle »

Nothing is real here

In this circus arena

We wander like beasts

Long decided step

And clowns know what they're talking about

No clowns anywhere

This globe is old

One hundred clowns on the shoulders there

And swings and throws

And just shake

Then the joke after another

And laughing further brien

And clowns know what they're talking about

No clowns anywhere

This globe is old

One hundred clowns on the shoulders there

And swings and throws

And just shake

Then the joke after another

And laughing further brien

My friend told me wisely:

«No one is afraid

The things that will hurt

It will happen once »

And those who laugh shall weep

If you don't believe it, see '

That circus is long gone

But the clowns are still here
