Translation of the song Sitiet bungas, mani mīļie artist Autobuss debesīs
Sitiet bungas, mani mīļie
Bang the drums, my dears
Vai jūs zināt, kas mēs esam?
Do you know, what we are?
Vai jūs zināt, kas ir kas?
Do you know, what is what?
Viss, ko iekārojas dabūt
Everything, we desire,
Galu galā nav nekas
In the end amounts to nothing
Tâ nekas, jums gribas smīnēt
It's alright, you want to smirk
Bet nav laika, saule riet
But there is no time, the sun is setting
Gaiteņos, kur valda gaitas
In corridors, where commune and found rule
Noklaudz durvis un ir ciet
The door bangs and is shut
Sitiet bungas, mani mīļie
Bang the drums, my dears
Sitiet plaukstas, brāļu bars
Clap along, group of brothers
Nakts ir manas tautas diena
The night is the day of my people
Viņas miesa ir mans gars
Her flesh is my spirit
Vai jūs zināt, kas mēs esam?
Do you know, what we are?
Vai jūs zināt, kas ir kas?
Do you know what is what?
Vienu rītu viņa celsies
One morning she will rise
Saulei lecot, vējš būs ass
With the sun rising, the wind will be sharp
Ciets ir cietums nu, bet mīkstums
The prison is hard, but now softness
Un vai zils ir tikai zils
And is blue just blue?
Savos dziļākajos sapņos
In my deepest dreams
Katram nabagam ir pils
Each poor man has a castle
Tur tiek pavēlēts un rīkots
Inside orders are given and organised
Tur tiek kaŗa gājiens posts
There the war match is prepared
Ja ar dievpalīgu veiksies,
If all goes well with god's helper
Dzīrēs pārvērtīsies posts
The destruction will change during the feast
Sitiet bungas, mani mīļie
Bang the drums, my dears
Sitiet plaukstas, brāļu bars
Clap along, group of brothers
Nakts ir manas tautas diena
The night is the day of my people
Viņas miesa ir mans gars
Her flesh is my spirit
Vai jūs zināt, kas mēs esam?
Do you know, what we are?
Vai jūs zināt, kas ir kas?
Do you know what is what?
Vienu rītu viņa celsies
One morning she will rise
Saulei lecot, vējš būs ass
With the sun rising, the wind will be sharp
