The Request Lyrics

[S. Jel�nek, T. Braxatoris]

Into the sea I want! Into the sea!

I want to merge with the sea,
With this stormy azure space!

Into the sea I want! Into the sea!

And ships float.
They flow to shoreless horizons.
Their white sails blow with sorrow.
Let my life be severed
Like a suddenly disappearing sail.

Should the death come,
Let her come.
Let me shine like the flesh of light above the stormy space!
Let me merge as a sail with the blue horizons!

Into the sea I want! Into the sea!

[Czech translation:]

Prosba

V mo�e chci, v mo�e!

Chci splynout s mo�em
S bou�n�m azurov�m prostorem!

V mo�e chci, v mo�e!

A lod� pluj�, pluj� k bezb�eh�m horizont�m,
Jejich b�l� plachty se nadouvaj� smutkem.
A� se m�j �ivot p�erve,
Tak jako nar�z zmiz� plachta.

M�-li u� p�ij�t smrt, a� tedy p�ijde.
A� jako paprsek sv�tla
Problesknu nad bou�n�m prostorem!
A� jako plachta splynu s modr�m obzorem!
Splynout chci s mo�em!

V mo�e chci, v mo�e!
