Ima jedna dama koja je sigurna
da je sve što sija zlato
I ona kupuje stepenište do neba
Kad stigne tamo ona zna
da i ako su sve radnje zatvorene
jednom rečju moze kupiti ono zbog čega je došla
I ona kupuje stepenište do neba.

Na zidu je znak
ali ona želi da bude sigurna
jer znaš ponekad reči imaju više značenja
Na drvetu pokraj potoka
ptica pevačica peva,
Ponekad su sve naše misli loše protumačene
I zbog toga se ponekad zapitam.
I zbog toga se ponekad zapitam.

Ima jedno osećanje koje me obuzme
kada gledam na zapad
I moj duh plače za odlaskom
U svojim mislima sam video
Krugove dima oko drveća
I glasove onih koji stoje i gledaju
I zbog toga se ponekad zapitam,
I zbog toga se ponekad zapitam,

I šuška se da će nas uskoro
ako svi zasviramo istu melodiju
gajdaš odvesti do objašnjenja
I novi dan će svanuti
za one koji dugo čekaju
I šume će odjeknuti smehom.

Ako čuješ komešanje u svojoj živici
Nemoj paničiti
To je samo prolećno spremanje za majsku kraljicu.
Da, postoje dva puta kojima možeš ići
Ali dugoročno gledano
još uvek ima vremena da promeniš put na kojem si.
I zbog toga se ponekad zapitam.

Bruji ti u glavi i neće da prestane
Ako slučajno nisi znao,
Gajdaš te zove da mu se pridružiš,
Draga damo, čuješ li kako vetar duva
I da li znaš
Tvoje stepenište je na vetru što šapuće.

I dok mi putem prolećemo
Naše senke višlje nego naša duša.
Tamo se šeta jedna dama koju svi znamo
Koja zrači belim svetlom i želi da pokaže
kako se sve još uvek pretvara u zlato.
I ako vrlo pažljivo slušaš
konačno ćeš čuti tu melodiju.
Kad svi su jedno i jedan je sve.
Biti kamen a ne kotrljati se
I ona kupuje stepenište do neba.

There’s a lady who’s sure
All that glitters is gold
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

There’s a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
’cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
There’s a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There’s a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it’s whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow
Don’t be alarmed now,
It’s just a spring clean for the may queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There’s still time to change the road you’re on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won’t go
In case you don’t know,
The piper’s calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.
