Aisha: What for? (Only Mr.God Knows Why)

Man nebija skaidrības par daudzām lietām
Par to es jautāju saviem gudrajiem:
“Kas ir cilvēks?; Kāda ir tā dzīves jēga?;

No kurienes mēs nākam?… Kurp dodamies?”
Bet visu gudrie man neatbildēja – tie to nespēja.
Ak, ja varētu to noskaidrot pie Dieva Tā Kunga.

I’ve asked my angels why
But they don’t know
What for do mothers cry and rivers flow?
Why are the skies so blue and mountains high?
What for is your love always passing by?

I’ve asked my uncle Joe
But he can’t speak
Why does the wind still blow and blood still leaks?
So many questions now with no reply
What for do people live until they die?

What for are we living?
What for are we crying?
What for are we dying?
Only Mr God knows why
What for are we living?
What for are we dreaming?
What for are we losing?
Only Mr God knows why
But his phone today is out of range

The sun in colour black is rising high
The time is turning back I wonder why
So many questions now with no reply
What for do people live until they die?

What for are we living?
What for are we crying?
What for are we dying?
Only Mr God knows why
What for are we living?
What for are we dreaming?
What for are we losing?
Only Mr God knows why

What for are we living?
What for are we crying?
What for are we dying?
Only Mr God knows why
What for are we living?
What for are we dreaming?
What for are we losing?
Only Mr God knows why.
