Zobena Dziesma (Sword Song)
1. Sen Dzirdeju, Nu Ieraugu
[Long I Heard, Now I See]
Sen dzirdeju, nu ieraugu
Dievam sirmi kumelini
Dievam sirmi kumelini
Sudrabina lasitem
Tumsina Dievs atjaja,
Kur liks Dieva kumelinu?
Jaj, masina, piegula
Laid abelu darzina
Dievins savu kumelinu
Uz akmena dusinaja
Lai nerusa pakavini
Arama zemite
Uz celina es atradu
Dieva jatu kumelinu
Zelta sedli mugura
Sudrabina iemauktini
2. Zobena Dziesma
[Sword Song]
Sausi koki, zali koki
Visi truka gabalos
Visi truka gabalos
Pusu plisa smalki kalni
Akmeniem dancojot
Akmeniem dancojot
Sasatika dadzu krumi
Ar aso zobentin’
Ar aso zobentin’
Dadzu krumi platuma
Zobentinis asuma
Zobentinis asuma
3. Parkiuns Veda Vedeklenu
[Perkons Brought The Bride]
Parkiuns veda
Parkiuns veda vedeklenu
No Vőczemes sai zeme
Saule veda
Saule veda velsu puru
Vysu mezu puskodama
Pridei sagsa
Pridei sagsa, eglei sagsa
Borzam bolta vylaineite
Uzulami
Uzulami voska cymdi
Por celena rődesanu
Smolkojami
Smolkojami kőrklesomi
Po dzeypura galenami
4. Gatavs Biju Karavirs
[Ready To Be A Warrior]
Gatavs biju karavirs,
Gatavs kara kumelins
Tas dieninas vien gaidiju
Kad zilite zinu dev'
Pa vartiem izjadams
Riksti duru pavarte
Ja ta auga, ja zaloja
Gaidat mani parejot
Ja neauga, nezaloja
Negaidati, neparies'
Uz karinu aiziedams
Krustu cirtu ozola
Lai neraud tevs, mamina
Lai raud krusta ozolins
5. Apkart Kalnu Gaju
[Around The Hill I Went]
Apkart kalnu gaju
Kalnina uzkapu
Ieraudziju meiteniti
Gauzi raudajot
Ko tu meitin raudi,
Ko tu serojiesi?
Ka bij’ manim neraudati
Balins kara iet
Kara bij’ man ieti
Kara nepalikt
Kara bija gruta dzive
Teva delinam
Salti veji puta
Bargi kungi suta
Svesaja zemite
Juras likumos
Apkart kalnu gaju
Kalnina uzkapu
Ieraudziju meiteniti
Gauzi raudajot
6. Prusu Meita Kara Jaja
[Prussian Maid Rides To War]
Prusu meita kara jaja
Zelo jaunu balelinu
Nu ardievu tevs, mamina
Man jaiet garu celu
Jaju, jaju garu celu
Uzjaj’ vienu zalu birzi
Uzjaj’ vienu zalu birzi
Ieraug’ kara karodzinu
Ieraug’ kara karodzinu
Ieraug’ karus karojot
Dievs palidz’ kara kungi
Vai lausiet kara ieti?
Jaj majas, prusu meita
Baro mates raibalinas
Baro mates raibalinas
Teva sirmus kumelinus
7. Aiziedams Perkons Grauda
[Perkons Left Thundering]
Aiziedamis Perkons grauda
Krustam skila uguntinu
Aizdzidamis jodu mati
Aiz devini ezerini
Lietins lija saulite
Kazas dzera veleniesi
Man balinis jauns nomira
Velos nema ligavinu
Dieva deli vedejini
Saules meitas panaksnicas
Tas purina daritajas
Davaninu devejinas
Osam kara zelta dvieli
Ozolami sudrabin’
Mazajami karklisami
Uzmauc zelta gredzentinu
Kad es mirsu, i es busu
Veleniesu godina
Kad es mirsu, i es busu
Veleniesu godina
Kad es mirsu, i es busu
Veleniesu godina
8. Sidrabina Upe Tek
[Silver River Flows]
Sidrabina upe tek
Visgarami zelta kalnu
Tur jaj visi karakungi
Zobentinus balinati
Aunies kajas, balelini
Sedlo savu kumelinu
Es dzirdeju aiz vartiem
Vara bungas ribinot
Veratiesi, vara varti,
Lidz pasami galinami.
Nu jas mani balelini,
Krustiem jozti zobentini
Visiem puski aiz cepures
Visiem zvaigznes zobena
No cepures gaisma ausa
No zobena saule leca
Gerb, balini, dzelza gerbu
Negerb tira sudrabina
Dzelza gerbs kara der
Sudrabina nedereja
9. Migla, Migla, Rasa, Rasa
[Oh Fog, Oh Dew]
Migla, migla, rasa, rasa
Tas man labu nedarij’
Rasa manas kajas mirka
Migla nozud kumelins
Nokrit migla, nokrit rasa
Atrod savu kumelin’
Atrod savu kumelinu
Pie Menesa namdurvim
Meness nema Saules meitu
Aicin’ mani vedibas
Ka es jasu vedibas
Nesedlotu kumelin’
Saule deva zelta sedlus
Meness sudrab’ iemauktins
Nu es varu drosi jati
Dieva delu pulcina
Krustiem auga kokiem saknes
Krustiem zvaigznes debesis
Saniem jaja Dieva deli
Krustiem tek’a kumelin’
10. Zirgi Zviedza
[Horses Neighed]
Zirgi zviedza, jodi brauca
Upit’ tecej’ curkstedam’
Es staveju malina
Ar zobenu rocina
Es nocirtu jodam galvu
Devinos gabalos
Man noskida brunie svarki
Ar tam joda asinim
Tu, Perkonis, gudris viris
Kur es vinus izmazgas’?
Mekle tadu ezerinu
Kur devinas upes tek
Tu, Perkonis, gudris viris
Kur es vinus izzaves’?
Mekle tadu ozolinu
Kur devinas saules lec
Tu, Perkonis, gudris viris
Kur es vinus noglabas’?
Mekle tadu osa ladi
Ar devini atslegam
Tu, Perkonis, gudris viris
Kur es vinus novalkas’?
Jaj, puisiti, uz karinu
Tur tu vinus novalkas’
11. Kur Tu Jasi, Balelini?
Kur tu jasi, balelini
Vakara kajas auni?
Ej masina, nevaica
Atnes manu cepuriti
Kur tu jasi, balelini
Es atnesu cepuriti
Ej masina, nevaica
Atnes manu zobentinu
Kur tu jasi, balelini
Es atnesu zobentinu
Ej, masina, nevaica
Sedlo manu kumelinu
Kur tu jasi, balelini
Es sedloju kumelinu
Jasu talu svesuma
Sargat savu tevu zemi
Skir, Dievini, manu celu
Sarga manu auguminu
Lai godam es varetu
Ienaidnieku uzvareti
[English translation:]
Where You'll Ride, Brother?
Where are you riding to brother
This eve, putting on your boots?
Go sister, don't ask.
Bring me my helmet.
Where are you riding to brother?
I have brought your helmet.
Go sister, don't ask.
Bring me my sword.
Where are you riding to brother?
I have brought your sword.
Go sister, don't ask.
Saddle my horse.
Where are you riding to brother?
I have saddled your horse.
I must ride in a strange land.
To defend the soil of my forefathers.
Dievini, divide my path.
Protect my body.
The honour, I will deserve.
I will crush my foes.
12. Zviegtin’ Zviedza Kara Zirgi
[Neighed The Battle Horses]
Zviegtin’ zviedza kara zirgi
Karavirus gaididami
Karaviri zobentinus
Uz akmena tecinaj’
Iztrinusi zobentinus
Krustam lika zveredami
Labak manu galvu nema
Neka manu tevu zemi
Es jums saku, svesi laudis
Sai zeme nenaciet
Dzied man zelta lakstigala
Zobentina galina
13. O Kai Saulute Tekejo
[When Sun Is Rising - Lithuanian folk song]
O kai sauluté tekéjo
Brolis zirgeli balnojo
Kelkis sesela, zaliu rutela
Uzdek sviesiu ugnel.
As atsikéliau ryteli
Ir nusiprausiau veideli
Atsisveikinau tévu motuli
Gal daugiau nebsmatys.
As vieskeléliu jodamas
Zirgeli mustravodamas
O ir pamaciau jaunu mergeli
Svirnely pas skrynial
O kam tu varstai skrynialas,
O kam tu pjaustai drobelas
As nenesiosiu tav marskinéliu
Kareivéliu budams
Duos mums karalius zirgelius
O ant zirgeliu balnelius
Rédys mus visus vienais parédais
Kaip vienos motinéls
Sugrius kalneliai kloniuosna
Pasruvs upeliai kraujuosna
O mes stovésim ir nedrebésim
Kol priesu nugalésim
All songs are Latvian folk tunes, except as mentioned
