Translation of the song Gara diena artist BrainStorm

Latvian

Gara diena

English translation

Long day

Gara, gara diena,

A long, long day,

Saulrietā ļaujiet man palikt vienam.

Let me remain alone in the sunset

Dodiet laiku,

Give me time

Atrast soli nākamam pakāpienam.

To find the spot to place my next step

Gara, gara čūska

A long, long snake

Manā ābelē vienīgo ābolu sargā,

Guards the only apple in my apple tree,

Un neaizver acis

It doesn't close its eyes

Ne vasarā, ne ziemā bargā.

In summer or in harsh winter

Manas domas un lūpas

My thoughts and my lips,

Tik pie ābola rītos un vakaros tiecas

Only tend towards the apple in mornings and evenings

Un varbūt pat labi,

And it is probably for the best,

Ka nekad līdz tam arī neaizsniedzas.

That they never reach it

Gara, gara dzīve

A long, long life

Gara un grūta - kāds elsa un pūta.

A long and hard life - someone huffed and puffed

Bet es mācos dienu

But I am learning to live each day

Nodzīvot kā dzīvi vienu

Like its own lifetime

Gara, gara čūska

A long, long snake

Manā ābelē vienīgo ābolu sargā,

Guards the only apple in my apple tree,

Un neaizver acis

It doesn't close its eyes

Ne vasarā, ne ziemā bargā.

In summer or in harsh winter

Manas domas un lūpas

My thoughts and my lips,

Tik pie ābola rītos un vakaros tiecas

Only tend towards the apple in mornings and evenings

Un varbūt pat labi,

And it is probably for the best,

Ka nekad līdz tam arī neaizsniedzas.

That they never reach it

Gara, gara dziesma

A long, long song

Katrai dziesmai reiz pienāk beigas,

Each song has to end sometime

Bet man ir šī diena,

But I have this day

Kuru nodzīvot ar prieku bez steigas.

To live happily at my own pace

Gara, gara čūska

A long, long snake

Manā ābelē vienīgo ābolu sargā,

Guards the only apple in my apple tree,

Un neaizver acis

It doesn't close its eyes

Ne vasarā, ne ziemā bargā.

In summer or in harsh winter

Manas domas un lūpas

My thoughts and my lips,

Tik pie ābola rītos un vakaros tiecas

Only tend towards the apple in mornings and evenings

Un varbūt pat labi,

And it is probably for the best,

Ka nekad līdz tam arī neaizsniedzas.

That they never reach it

Gara, gara diena,

A long, long day,

Saulrietā ļaujiet man palikt vienam...

Let me remain alone in the sunset...
