五十年过去了，我的新娘早已逝去，

And yet still when I sta

在涅曼河岸边那贫瘠、被剥夺的土地上

我带回家的只有一次突袭中雪亮的矛尖：

三儿Skirgiell策扬鞭，

践踏着十字军骑士，那狗一般卑贱的群，

"With Kiejstut&039;s hordes ample the next son shall trample

他布满琥珀和钻石的甲，

"In the barren, stripped land beyond Niemen&039;s wide strand

“波兰对于全世界来说，都是情人的土壤：

There are coins shining brightly like ice,

一个人跟随在Olgierd鞍之下：

"For &039;tis Poland the world over that&039;s the land lor a lover:

One shall follow &039;neath Olgierd&039;s device:

比还要洁白的面颊，如黑丝绸般柔的睫，

上的钱币像冰闪闪发光，

Fifty years are now sped and my bride is long dead,

圆盾和剑仅是他作战的奖赏，

There he amber thick-strown, vestments diamond-sown,

“在丽的诺夫哥罗德低地，伊尔门湖宽广的岸边

二儿Kiejstut率领着大队，

There are sables&039; black tails there are silvery veils,

That dog&039;s breed, the Knights of the Cross;

Ye are three and three roads ye shall ride you.

织锦纹辉煌锃亮。

Faces whiter than milk, lashes soft as black silk,

"By Lake Ilmen&039;s broad shores where fair Novgorod lowers

Where goes Skirgiell, the third son shall ride;

她们的瞳仁——如同星光版闪耀！

但从那里他将带回他的新娘。

黑貂尾的披风，银白的面纱，

But from there he shall bring him his bride.

The bright Pole I brought home from a raid:

Only buckler and sword will he get as reward,

And brocades al a marvellous gloss,

你们三兄弟将沿着三条路勇往直前。

All the maids are like kittens at play;

征，但你们会听到我的告诫：

And their eyes - like the star-shine are they!

所有的少女像小猫一般玩闹，
