Má píseň zas mi láskou zní

Language: Czech (Čeština) after the Czech (Čeština)

Our translations: ENG FRE GER ITA

Má píseň zas mi láskou zní,
když starý den umirá,
a chudý mech kdy na šat svůj
si tajně perle sbíra.

Má píseň v kraj tak toužně zní,
když svetem noha bloudí;
jen rodné pusty dálinou
zpěv volně z ňader proudí.

Má píseň hlučně láskou zní,
když bouře běží plání;
když těším se, že bídy prost
dlí bratr v umírání.

My song resounds with love

Language: English after the Czech (Čeština)

My song resounds with love
when the old day is dying; 
it is sowing its shadows 
and reaping a collections of pearls.

My song resonates with longing
while my feet roam distant lands.
My homeland is in the distant wilderness -
my song stirs with nationalism.

My song reverberates with love
while unplanned storms hasten.
I rejoice in the freedom that I no longer have 
a part in the dying of a brother.
