Translated lyrics
Open your eyes and look around Here and there winter is over and spring has begun In the field near the road there are already cornflowers Don't tell me all of this can't be true Chorus: Good people are in the middle of the road Very good people Good people know the way And with them it's possible to walk One man gave me a book, 100 years old Another man gave a violin, with a melody inside And another good lady gave me her name And since then I'm on the road singing in her place Chorus One man gave me a 100 years old book another man gave a violin with a tune and another good lady gave me her name and ever since I'm on the road singing in her name Chorus
