Текст песни: The Nine-Headed + перевод

The evening casts long shadows

Red sun is setting beyond the forest

Kurbads is going to guard the bridge

Where the swift blood river runs

It’s midnight and the ground starts to shake

The Nine-headed ogre is heading here

Look, Kurbads, that’s a lot of heads there!

Stopping by the bridge, ogre shouts:

— «Kurbads, you bastard, let me pass

Your life is drawing to an end!»

— «You better come and fight me here

Because I have something for you»:

Strong hands and a brave heart

Three stars which shine on my sword!

Now hero strikes as hard as he can

A few heads fall down

Three new ones grow in place where the others fell

Ogre is going to ram him into the ground

— «Your life ends here, you bastard!»

— «Wait, give me a break to rest my hands

That’s the way true warriors fight

For even rain and wind must sometime cease»

From the jug, blood already overflows

But brothers don’t care, they sleep tight

Kurbads hurls a mace to awaken them

Let them hurry with the news for his mother

Where Kurbads hacked, his mother kicked

Now it’s working

Now it can be done

Like a rotten trunk

The Nine-headed falls

Strong hands and a brave heart

Three stars which shine on my sword

Strong hands and a friend’s shoulder — the sun is

rising!
