Translation of the song Plaukstas lieluma pavasaris artist BrainStorm

Latvian

Plaukstas lieluma pavasaris

English translation

A palm sized spring

Diena sākas, kāpju uz svariem –

The day begins, I step on the scales -

Manis pietiks vēl diviem pavasariem

There is enough of me to last two more springs

Piere rievās, kaujas poza

A frown on the forehead, a fighting stance

Mīļotā, noņem tās brilles rozā

Beloved, please remove those pink sunglasses

Un kad modīsies no rīta

And when it shall awake in the morning

Kā pēc darba padarīta,

As if after a job well done

Ķers pie kabatas – ne miņas

Will clutch at the pocket - no clue why

Visas pazaudētas – atslēdziņas

All the keys are lost

Dzīve kā interviju svari,

Life like the scales of an interview

“Un kā tev iet un ko tu dari?”

And how are you and what do you do?

Es raustu plecus, saku: “gaidu

I shrug and say:

Plaukstas lieluma pavasari”

Wait for a palm sized spring

Mēles karstas, vārdi kad trinas

Hot tongues, when words collide,

Tā mēs dzīvojam, tā mēs svinam

That is how we live, that is how we celebrate

Kā pēc kaujas, rudzu lauks uz kraujas

As if after a battle, a field of rye by a cliff

Viens otru mēs, kur smēlām saujās

Where we scooped each other in our palms

Un kad modīsies no rīta

And when it shall awake in the morning

Kā pēc darba padarīta,

As if after a job well done

Ķers pie kabatas – ne miņas

Will clutch at the pocket - no clue why

Visas pazaudētas – zelta atslēdziņas

All the golden keys are lost

Likās nekad, bet ir jau klāt

Seemed like never, but it is already here

Un tūlīt iemācīsies staigāt,

And will imminently learn to walk

Un ko ar mums, ar mums darīs

And what will it do to us, do to us

Plaukstas lieluma pavasaris

A palm sized spring

Dzīve kā interviju svari,

Life like the scales of an interview

“Un kā tev iet un ko tu dari?”

And how are you and what do you do?

Es raustu plecus, saku:

I shrug and say:

“gaidu Plaukstas lieluma pavasari”

Wait for a palm sized spring
