Srdce a kříž [English translation]

She gave me the anchor and the heart and cross, [1]

to protect me while I will be on the battlefield,

and then she yielded to me, and the night was our hideaway,

the pillow was the twilight, and grass was our blanket.

[Ref:]

When the two rays of sun will burn on the horizon,

I will have the heart on my neck, and the cross over me,

then do not cry, Kamila, do not cry,

and find somebody that will want you more than me.

I saw the fisherman, standing in front of his boat,

during a thunderstorm on sea, the anchor went down to the bottom,

so I took away my anchor from the chain on my neck,

maybe the world will just keep on going, I gave it to him.

[Ref:]

When the two rays of sun will burn on the horizon,

I will have the heart on my neck, and the cross over me,

then do not cry, Kamila, do not cry,

and find somebody that will want you more than me.

The only gold on the rank insignia was sand particles,

the sand had tin color, before we passed the night,

I lost my cross and my fear together with it,

and I wouldn't want a new one even for free.

[Ref:]

When the two rays of sun will burn on the horizon,

I will have the heart on my neck, and the cross over me,

then do not cry, Kamila, do not cry,

and find somebody that will want you more than me.

I lifted my gaze and silently laughed,

then a flash of light, and I felt pain in my chest.

In the middle of the clouds, my angel was calling me,

I felt no pain anymore, and all went quiet.

[Ref:]

When the two rays of sun will burn on the horizon,

I will have the heart on my neck, and the cross over me,

then do not cry, Kamila, do not cry,

and find somebody that will want you more than me.
