Pokaždé svítá, po každé noci,
když oči znovu otvírám,
světlo mě vítá:
„Nejsi bez pomoci,
nejsi na to sám,“
říká „nejsi na to sám.“
Pravda je skrytá v každé noci,
co zrodilo se, umírá.
Každý strom poznáš po ovoci,
jedním jsi ty sám,
jedním z nich jsi ty sám.
Z výšky se hlava zamotá,
už není kam dál lézt.
Zbývá jen věčná samota
nebo se s proudem řeky nést,
nechat se proudem řeky nést,
skočit a nechat se nést…
Pokaždé znovu den se rodí
a novou bránu otvírá.
Cesta mě vítá, že mě doprovodí.
Nejsem na to sám,
že prý nejsem na to sám.
Po každé cestě štěstí chodí,
pokud víš, že je to ta tvá.
Každý strom jiné plody rodí,
jedním jsi ty sám,
jedním z nich jsi ty sám.

Each time there’s dawn,
after each night,
when I open my eyes.
The light welcomes me saying:
“You are not without help,
you are not alone for that.”
Truth is hidden in every night,
what was born, dies.
You’ll know each tree after its fruits
and you are one of them,
you are one of them.
One gets dizzy in the heights,
there is nowhere to climb further.
What’s left
is either eternal loneliness
or to be carried by the river stream,
to let oneself be carried by the river stream,
to jump and let oneself be carried.
Each time a day is born anew
and it opens a new gate.
The path welcomes me saying
it will make me company.
Am not alone for that,
it seems I am not alone for that.
Happiness walks on every path,
if you know this one is yours.
Every tree carries different fruits
and you are one of them,
you are one of them.
