Jei aÅ¡ Å¡okÄiau pro langÄ… -
Tai tik lapkriÄio mÄ—nesÄ¯,
Kai Å¡aligatvis klotas
NukraujuojanÄiais lapais.
Ä® mane paÅ¾iÅ«rÄ—ti subÄ—gtÅ³
Kiemo vaikai.
AÅ¡ Å¡ypsoÄiausi jiems,
AÅ¡ Å¡ypsoÄiausi jiems dar ilgai.

AÅ¡ sakyÄiau:
- VaikuÄiai, nebijokite nieko:
Nei mirties, nei mokyklos, nei
blogÅ³ paÅ¾ymiÅ³.
AÅ¡ sakyÄiau:
- VaikuÄiai, kad tik jÅ«s Å¾inotumÄ—t,
Kaip visa tai nesvarbu,
Nesvarbu...
Nesvarbu...

Title	If I jumped out of the window...
Translation English Translated by Dzuljeta	Target language: English If I jumped out of the window - I would only do that in November, When the pavement is blanketed with Bleeding leaves. Children from the yard Would run to look at me. I would smile at them, I would keep still, smiling at them for a long time. I would say: - Children, be afraid of nothing: Neither of death, nor of school, nor of bad grades. I would say: - Children, if only you knew How insignificant it all is... Insignificant... Insignificant...
Remarks about the translation	Note by the translator: Don't freak out, it is but a song (by Alina Orlova). This "if only you knew" could as well be understood as "I wish you knew".
