Lyrics

Od Čadce k Dunaju počuť čudnú nôtu:
Hranicu stavajú z ostnatého drôtu
[: kamarát-separát, nová paralýza
Z Moravy do Blavy vyžaduje víza. :]
Nečakaj, Natalí, že za tebou prídem
Vízum mi nedali, vraj sa zaobídem
[: čakal som deväť dní, viacej nechcem sľúbiť
Stretnem ťa vo Viedni, tam sa smieme ľúbiť! :]

Lyrics translation

From Chad to the Danube to hear a strange note:
Border built of barbed wire
[: friend-separation, New paralysis
From Moravia to Blava requires a visa. :]
Don't expect Natalie to come see you.
They didn't give me a visa, they said I'd do it.
[: I waited nine days, more I do not promise
I'll meet you in Vienna, that's where we can love each other! :]
