Genius pateikia anglišką teksto vertimą:

 The song’s title can be translated to “The conquest of the erect position” and, accordingly, the lyrics depict the moment humans learned to stand up on their two legs.

Reed stems and wrinkles of ancient stone

Smell of beast, print of prey

Nothing else sees my prone sight

If bent is my back

If only I could straighten the neck over the fronds

And keep upright the body, opposed to the wind

I try and fall and try

And upright I stand for a moment

The shout thunders all over the whole vault

Up to the volcanoes it rises, and then I stay to see

And they drink, my eyes, the flights, the jumps

My forests and the others [men]

And where air at the bottom touches the sea

The sight upright can see
