In 1952, the Czech national poet, F. Hrubin, writes this.
Z kominu se kouri
slunce oci mhouri
mhur si oci mhur
kdyby se z nich nekourilo
bylo by nam hur
Now, for those of you who don't speak some sort of slavic language (what, you don't speak Czech!?!?), the translation is as follows.
Smoke from smokestacks runs
squint-eyed is the sun
squint, sun, squint your eyes
if it were not for the smokestacks
worse would be our lives
Gotta love Communism.
