Moja usta so odprta
čudim se svetu okoli sebe
rad bi ga okusil
pogrešam okus življenja,
ki utripa v ritmu srca
rad bi vsrkal vsako kapljico
dežja, ki ga prinese jesen.
Prosim, dovolite mi
da se dotaknem palice življenja
rad bi spet prišel do vulkana
in ga spustil  v moje bitje.

my mouth is open
I marvel at the world around me
I'd like to taste it
i miss the taste of life,
which beats in the rhythm of the heart
I'd like to suck in every drop
the rain that autumn brings.
Please allow me
to touch the stick of life
i would like to reach the volcano again
and let him into my being.
