Vítr si ve větvích stromů písničku píská
a kapky deště mu k tomu začaly hrát.
Kaluže plní se vodou, voda zní v miskách,
pramínky neposedné nechtějí stát.
Voda padá, z nebe padá,
Zem ji pije, zas je mladá,
větrem hnaná, roztančená,
nespoutaná - jako žena.
Nechám si vodou z nebe omývat vlasy,
dobrý déšť vezme všechno, co den dal.
V mracích se blýsklo – to možná na lepší časy
a hromy burácejí:„Začíná bál.“
Voda padá, z nebe padá,
Zem ji pije, zas je mladá,
větrem hnaná, roztančená,
nespoutaná - jako žena.
Kapky se na špičkách listů perlově třpytí,
v oparu měkce voní celý kraj.
Prvními okny v mracích slunce svítí
a louka tiše šeptá:
„Země je ráj, země je ráj ....

In the branches of trees
The wind is whistling a song
And rain drops are joining in.
Puddles are being filled
With water sounding in their bowls
The restless streams won't stand still.
Water is falling, falling from the sky
The earth is drinking it, she is young again,
Driven by the wind in the whirl of her dance
she's unbound – like a woman.
I'll let my hair be washed by waters of the sky,
The good rain takes all the day has given.
There are flashes in the clouds
– maybe hints of better times
And thunders are roaring:
„Here begins the ball.“
Pearl drops are glimmering on the tips of leaves
A soft smell is pervading the misty lands.
Through the first windows in the clouds
The sun is streaming in
And the meadow is quietly whispering:
„Earth is heaven, earth is heaven...
