One shall follow &039;neath Olgierd&039;s device:
That dog&039;s breed, the Knights of the Cross;
在涅曼河岸边那贫瘠、被剥夺的土地上
Faces whiter than milk, lashes soft as black silk,
践踏着十字军骑士,那狗一般卑贱的种群,
There he amber thick-strown, vestments diamond-sown,
"With Kiejstut&039;s hordes ample the next son shall trample
所有的少女像小猫一般玩闹,
There are coins shining brightly like ice,
"By Lake Ilmen&039;s broad shores where fair Novgorod lowers
The bright Pole I brought home from a raid:
三儿子Skirgiell策
扬鞭,
“在美丽的诺夫哥罗德低地,伊尔门湖宽广的岸边
"In the barren, stripped land beyond Niemen&039;s wide strand
And yet still when I stand
Ye are three and three roads ye shall ride you.
但从那里他将带回他的新娘。
Only buckler and sword will he get as reward,
你们三兄弟将沿着三条
路勇往直前。
Where goes Skirgiell, the third son shall ride;
But from there he shall bring him his bride.
五十年过去了,我的新娘早已逝去,
会听到我的告诫:
And brocades al a marvellous gloss,
比牛
还要洁白的面颊,如黑丝绸般柔
的睫
,
她们的瞳仁――如同星光版闪耀!
Fifty years are now sped and my bride is long dead,
All the maids are like kittens at play;
圆盾和剑仅是他作战的奖赏,
他布满琥珀和钻石的
甲,
一个人跟随在Olgierd
鞍之下:
织锦花纹辉煌锃亮。
“波兰对于全世界来说,都是情人的土壤:
我带回家的只有一次突袭中雪亮的矛尖:
There are sables&039; black tails there are silvery veils,
上的钱币像坚冰闪闪发光,
"For &039;tis Poland the world over that&039;s the land lor a lover:
And their eyes - like the star-shine are they!
黑貂尾的披风,银白的面纱,
二儿子Kiejstut率领着大
队,
