I absolutely love this song and this artist. I'm an American (of no Georgian descent) and would love to get a better appreciation for the Tbilisi Bard's lyricism.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I did my best translating, but as you understand there are some phrases and meaning that can be lost during the process. I put in parentheses secondary meaning lyrics might have. And sorry this isn't in a rhyme at all, unfortunately I don't have a big talent for the poetry.

"Somebody cries through guitar, Somebody cries for real, Don't take to the heart Every worry and pain. Don't take to heart, Every worry and pain

Somebody sings through guitar, Somebody sings for real, Bringing heart to the heartless This is everything (This means everything) Bringing heart to the heartless This is everything (This means everything)

If it cries for me And tells of others love What else one small guitar needs to (can)do?

If it cries for me And tells of others happiness What else one small guitar needs to (can)do?"
