Istume aknal

Kolligo-oss
Arriva-rarriva-i-jah1
 
Istume aknal ja vaatame alla.
Siit kõrgelt on kaugele näha.
Puhume suuri ja väikeseid mulle.
Mis paremat saakski me teha?
 
Karrrramba
Rada salvahe
 
Ei otsi me kujundeid kuust ega pilvist,
suuda avada tulegi pähe.
Kõik niigi on näha me mõlema silmist.
Ei olegi seda nii vähe.
 
Karrrramba-jah
Korridaa
Näh!
 
Ilusad mullid kui kaunimad sõnad,
mis iial kord välja on öeldud.
Ei ole neil tähendust, pole neis kõla,
mis teisiti olekski mõeldud.
 
Nii ilusad, haprad, nii rumalalt vaprad,
et tuulest end lasevad kanda.
Nii meeletud-hooletud enesetapjad
ja rohkem neil polegi anda.
 
Nii meeletud-hooletud enesetapjad
ja rohkem neil polegi anda.
 
Istume aknal ja vaatame üles.
Seal nii palju tühjust on näha.
Ei olegi sõnu, mis lausuda tuleks.
Mis saakski me paremat teha?

We're Sitting in the Window

Kolligo-oss
Arriva-rarriva-i-jah1
 
We're sitting in the window and looking down.
One can see so far from up here.
We're blowing big and small bubbles.
Would there be anything better we could do?
 
Karrrramba
Rada salvahe
 
We're not searching for shapes on the moon or in the clouds,
opening our mouths doesn't enter our minds.
Everything can anyway be seen in/from our eyes.
There isn't so little of it.
 
Karrrramba-jah
Korridaa
Näh!2
 
Beautiful bubbles like the prettiest words
that have ever been said out loud.
They have no meaning, there is no sound in them
that had been meant to be/mean anything different.
 
So beautiful, fragile, so foolishly brave
to let themselves be carried by the wind.
So wild, careless and suicidal
and they don't have more to give.
 
So wild, careless and suicidal
and they don't have more to give.
 
We're sitting in the window and look up.
One can see so much emptiness there.
There really aren't words that one should say.
Would there be anything better we could do?

  • 2. a silly sound of disappointment or disapproval
