The clouds in the sky,
the girls with two plaits,
the smile of a child,
the pouring wet days,
the love of a maid,
the poor working class,
an unselfish aid,
a dark underpass:
what about these things?
What about these things?
A young streetwalker,
the sound of a lash,
a hopeless loser,
the colour of ash,
the fighting masses,
the birth of a life,
my brown eyelashes,
the blade of a knife:
what about these things?
What about these things?
A noble action,
a pale and pure bride,
a wise solution,
a wonderful prize,
the sincere people,
an icy caress,
a little candle,
a dream of success:
what about these things?
What about these things?
These are some things I love.
