Raimonda Igolnieka mūz., Imanta Auziņa vārdi
Iedegas blāzmas augstās
Kvēl saule, kvēl
Dzīve, Tu manās plaukstās
Vēl esi vēl.
Visi mēs kājas aujam.
Rīts – zils, zeltīts vai mēļš,
Kas tur dziļumā taujā:
Cik ilgi vēl.
Zaudēts ir tikai no gūtā,
It nekā man nav žēl.
Dzīve, Tu skaistā un grūtā,
Esi vēl ilgi! Vēl!
