Текст песни
If during life you did not want to come
And speak out everything right to my face
Why do you stand now by the quiet bed
Of earth, locked in a circle's cold embrace
No need to weep so bitterly at the grave
When clocks cannot be turned back anymore
In the cross's shadow do not try to hide
Your belated words won't reach that distant shore
Love those who are alive while they are here
While radiant light is burning in their eyes
There, in the endless spaces of the sky
A different speaker waits beyond the skies
Speak to the living, hold them tighter now
Before the cold earth hides them out of view
Among empty grudges and the passing days
Make time to say 'I love you' and be true
You had so many days and so much time
To come, to look directly in the eyes
To drop the heavy burden of the past
And say what you omitted under skies
But you kept silent, nursing ancient grudges
And now, when those eyes closed forevermore
And ears won't hear how you condemn the views
You seek a reason to restore the door
If honor failed to call for an honest fight
Don't think that you are stronger than the dead
The one who lies in earth has found his peace
He doesn't care about your smile or dread
If thoughts gave him no peace while he was living
Let them be calm and quiet at this stage
Live with your peace, make no mistakes again
To ease the heart for him and every age
Love the living... Speak to the living
While they are close... While they are here
