Cekulaina Zīle Dzied [English translation]

A crested bird sings

From atop the stable rafters

Go, sister, give a listen

What news the bird has brought

It brought news that

Brother must go to war

Go, sister into the garden

And adorn brother's cap

She adorned it while singing

And sent him off while crying

Don't cry my sister

But wait for my return

If you can't await me

Then wait then for my horse

After three years, on the fourth

My horse finally returned

She asked to the horse

Where it left the rider

The rider stayed there

Where men lie like oaks

The wind rustled their hair

The sun whitened their bones

There rode sons of Dievs

Gathering up their souls
