HIGH SPIRITS

To perceive a walk in the city like a dream
and at night, asleep, to know what we know in waking.
Thereby we make two worlds grow closer,
thereby we open doors and enter out.

Whatever is not, is, and whatever is, is not.
The judicious know that judgement day has come
and the sun shines to never end it.
Try closing your eyes, you'll see without any change.

Try raising your eyelids... the dream won't end.
Try raising your eyelids... the dream won't end.

You are your own desire and its fulfilment,
you are the painter and her painting,
you are the one you're looking out for and the one that rushes after him,
you are the human warmth you offer to the palms of your hands.

In the world within the world, before the world, after the world,
I hear myself saying through my inner ear: „Lady!“
This address is its own reply.
I am all of you.

I raise my eyelashes, the dream won't end.

If only I weren't absolutely colour-blind,
I'd recognise images of fallen leaves within.
What I hadn't missed and what still awaits me.
In the rotting leaf drifts I'd see the maker of man.


HLADINKA

Nahlédnout chůzi městem jako sen
a v noci spící vědět to, co víme v bdění.
Tak v sobě oba světy sbližujem,
tak otvíráme dveře a vcházíme ven.

Co není, to je a co je, to není,
ví, kdo je soudný, že je soudný den
a slunce svítí k jeho neskončení.
Zkus zavřít oči, uvidíš beze změny.

Zkus víčka pozdvihnout... neskončí tím sen.
Zkus víčka pozdvihnout... neskončí tím sen.

Sobě jsi tužbou i jejím naplněním,
sama jsi malířkou i jejím obrazem,
jsi tím, jejž vyhlížíš, i tím, jenž spěchá za ním,
jsi teplem člověka, jež nabízíš svým dlaním.

Ve světě ve světě, před světem, za světem
sebe svým vnitřním sluchem slyším říkat: „Paní!“
To oslovení je také odvětem.
Jsem vámi všemi.

Pozdvihám řasy, nemizí tím sen.

Jen nebýt úplně barvoslepá,
rozpoznám v sobě obraz spadaného listí.
Co jsem neminula i co mě čeká.
V tlejících závějích zřím tvůrce člověka.

Recordings On the Road image

Recordings On the Road Czech Republic

Collective publishing project of a few kindred musicians, flowing outside (on periphery or in underground) the Czech music happening and mostly devoted themselves to alternative rock or avantgarde music. Stylistically diverse is united by a similar attitude to music perceived not as a medium, but as the way, autonomous and eminently participating on our lives, on our road. ... more
