[Hungarian]

Éjjeli végeken húznak a felhők, szárnyal a síkon a sztyeppi sirály. Vad vagyok én is, a farkas a nádban, a róka a réten, az árva madár.

Úgy ver a szívem az ingem alatt, mint paták a sztyeppén, a szélben a jó. A szélben, a dérben, egy messzi mesében üldöz a bánat, fekete hajó

úszik a Volgán, katonák rajta, alszanak mind, csak a lódobogás dobban az éjben, tulajdonképpen gyönyörűszép ez a nagy rohanás.

Hajó a Volgán, katonák rajta, alszanak mind, amíg tart ez az éj. Ez a nagy rohanás, ez a hajnali hajsza, a halál mögöttem száll, utolér.

A halál mögöttem száll, utolér.

[English]

In fields of night the clouds are drifting, A steppe-gull soars across the plain. I too am wild - the wolf in the reeds, The fox in the meadow, the orphan bird.

My heart beats beneath my shirt Like hooves on the steppe, in the wind I ride, In the wind, in the frost, in a far-off fable Sorrow hunts me, a black ship sails

Drifting the Volga, soldiers aboard, All of them sleeping, the night hold them fast. Only the pounding of hooves in the darkness; And somehow this headlong flight feels beautiful.

A ship on the Volga, soldiers aboard, All of them sleeping while night endures. This wild rushing, this chase into dawn - Death flies behind me, and overtakes.

Death flies behind me, and overtakes.
