Spur des Lebens [English translation]

[Verse 1 - Alea]

It feels so hard, writing these lines to you

Although I think, that you will never read

It feels so hard, not to cry for you

Tears that you probably will never shed

[Verse 2 - Alea]

It feels so hard, gifting you with life

Although the time drives me further

It feels so hard, for me to decide for you

For you my child, my remaining trace

[Refrain - Alea]

My trace of life, my little light in the wind

Are you prepared for these times, my unborn child

My trace of life, in this dark time

My little spark of hope, my immortal piece

[Verse 3 - Marta Jandová]

I ask myself, what would you become

Surrounded by stupidity, envy and greed

Just a cog wheel, in the national gearbox

My cog wheel, what would be there for you

[Refrain - Alea & Marta Jandová]

My trace of life, my little light in the wind

Are you prepared for these times, my unborn child

My trace of life, in this dark time

My little spark of hope, my immortal piece

[Verse 4 - Alea & Marta Jandová]

I often think, at the many hours

At the lifetime, which for me shortens

At this path, connected to you so closely

And ask myself if it begins for us

[Alea]
