Lyrics & translation
Verse
Na školním jevišti přestala svítit papírová hvězda.
The paper star went dark on our school stage.
Pastýřský plášť jsem měl ze starého prostěradla.
My shepherd's cloak was made from an old sheet.
Paní učitelka zastavila malé krále u opony.
The teacher stopped the little kings at the curtain.
V batohu jsem našel své světlo na kolo.
In my backpack I found my bicycle lamp.
Chorus
Nemá zlato, jenom tlačítko a škrábance.
It has no gold, just a button and scratches.
Ukazuje cestu mezi jesličkami a kulisami.
It shows the way between the manger and scenery.
I malý pastýř může dát ostatním šanci.
Even a little shepherd can give others a chance.
Verse
Já ho opatrně zapnul a přestal se bát.
I carefully switched it on and stopped being afraid.
Chorus
Naše hvězda dneska přijela na řídítkách.
Our star arrived on handlebars today.
Nemá zlato, jenom tlačítko a škrábance.
It has no gold, just a button and scratches.
Ukazuje cestu mezi jesličkami a kulisami.
It shows the way between the manger and scenery.
I malý pastýř může dát ostatním šanci.
Even a little shepherd can give others a chance.
Bridge
Nikdo v publiku nevěděl, odkud světlo pochází.
Nobody watching knew where the light came from.
Po představení jsme lampu zase vrátili do batohu.
After the show we returned it to the backpack.
Cestou domů jsem mu všechno vyprávěl.
I told him everything on the way home.
Chorus
Naše hvězda dneska přijela na řídítkách.
Our star arrived on handlebars today.
Nemá zlato, jenom tlačítko a škrábance.
It has no gold, just a button and scratches.
Ukazuje cestu mezi jesličkami a kulisami.
It shows the way between the manger and scenery.
I malý pastýř může dát ostatním šanci.
Even a little shepherd can give others a chance.
Outro
Od té doby má světlo malou nálepku hvězdy.
Since then the lamp wears a little star sticker.
Svítí mi na cestu každé zimní ráno.
It lights my way every winter morning.
