Anule, hanule [English translation]

They went...

Three thieves, three horse thieves

on an evening road

Hey...

Royal arabian horses.

They were

three thieves, three heaven thieves

on a wax road

Hey

in an orange time...

They're sitting for a century at the auberge

the auberge from then

where you can't hear

whistle and bagpipe.

Snowed from the sky

with sheep wool

The time is yesterday

and the day is thursday

Big...

is their halt

what's their thing

hey

and what they're waiting for

Yellow

violet and pink

to run

Hey

to Edi-Kule

They're holding a secret counsel

there at the auberge

auberge forgot

even by Genghis-Khan

where a day is

larger than a year

and the year is a century

and the century is larger...

Please

tell me what they're doing

and what are they planning

Hey,

the three emperors?

You see that

they're neither frying lambs

nor emptying glasses

Hey,

the dragon emperors!

But they're having a big book

with silver pages

about the time

not getting worn out

Its pages coming

being without death

Reading themselves

their book of life

The time is of yesterday

and the day of yours

Snowed from the sky

with sheep wool

and with more yearning

they're sung by us

Sitting for a century at the auberge

the auberge from then...
