Jan Budař a Eliščin Band - The circle

The circle is closing

it stands out against itself

and rotates inside itself

and rotates inside itself

Life’s light goes out

I stand inside myself alone

and draw a wheel in the sand

and draw a wheel in the sand

God is a circle and a wheel

Like a trout against the current

has to swim to, it tries to swim

but to where?

I alone ask the trout does not

Who am I and God?

and trout and circle and wheel

Everything is simple and clear

a wheel on the sand

it’s clear that the trout’s life will be gone, as will mine

it’s clear that the trout’s life will be gone, as will mine. Only

to see before, that the wheel and trout and circle are God.
