Sme svoji
Peter Nagy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Byť ľudský len k tým, čo sú k nám ľudia
Tak choďte sa byť trocha nabok
Zlý nemajú nárok
My chceme rátať to čo kto dal a má dať
So slepým sa o farbách hádať
Kto vidí, rozozná ten dar
že máme svoju krásnu tvár
Sme svoji
Ten pocit nesie nás hore viac a zas
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás
My vieme ľúbiť len tých, čo nás ľúbia
Byť ľudský len k tým, čo sú k nám ľudia
Tak choďte sa byť trocha nabok
Zlý nemajú nárok
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Ten pocit nesie nás hore viac a zas
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Ten pocit nesie nás hore viac a zas
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
Sme svoji
A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás.
The lyrics to "Sme Svoji" by Peter Nagy reflect a sense of pride and loyalty towards oneself and those who reciprocate those same feelings. The opening lines, "My vieme ľúbiť len tých, čo nás ľúbia / Byť ľudský len k tým, čo sú k nám ľudia," can be translated to "We only know how to love those who love us / Be human only to those who are human to us." This suggests a desire for a genuine connection with others and a level of self-preservation.
The chorus of the song, repeating "Sme svoji" multiple times, reemphasizes the idea of being true to oneself and one's identity. The lyrics assert that those who do not align with their values, or are "zly" (bad), have no claim to them. Throughout the song, there is a sense of defiance and empowerment as the singer declares their self-worth and the importance of genuine connections.
Overall, "Sme Svoji" is a song that encourages listeners to stay true to themselves and prioritize relationships with those who reciprocate their loyalty and affection, while also standing up to those who do not align with their values.

My vieme ľúbiť len tých, čo nás ľúbia
We are only able to love those who love us back
Byť ľudský len k tým, čo sú k nám ľudia
Being human only to those who are human to us
Tak choďte sa byť trocha nabok
So go be a little bit off
Zlý nemajú nárok
The bad ones have no right
My chceme rátať to čo kto dal a má dať
We want to count what each person has given and should give
So slepým sa o farbách hádať
Arguing with the blind about colors
Kto vidí, rozozná ten dar
Whoever sees, recognizes the gift
že máme svoju krásnu tvár
That we have our beautiful face
Sme svoji
We are ourselves
Ten pocit nesie nás hore viac a zas
That feeling lifts us up more and again
A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás
And whoever is not ours, does not reach us
Sme svoji
We are ourselves
Sme svoji
We are ourselves
Sme svoji
We are ourselves
Sme svoji
We are ourselves

A ten kto nieje náš, nedosiahne na nás.
And whoever is not ours, does not reach us.

Slovenská hudba 80. let je jedna velká pecka! Slováci ještě že vás máme. Asi jsem divný, ale mám 25 let a poslouchám všechnu tehdejší tvorbu. Tak nějak mě to přijde lidštější a přirozenější, než poslouchat hudbu současnou. Nemohu si pomoct...
