lyrics

“Here I asseverate
Twilight of the white raven’s throne
Of the feathers’ hue like ashes of bones

I come to usurp the throne 
Alea iacta est -
The return of days passed”

My Viridian altar under the rule of the sun 
-The return of the benevolent king and youthful life
Transmigration of the weakening snow 
-Into the warming embrace the winter dies 

On the night I cast the wind 
Of the equinox, the solstice in sanguine 
The world becomes green again 
Once more it is the time of spring.

“Wherever the wind blows 
Is whither I shall go”
(The world becomes green again 
For once more, it is the time of spring. )

I do not know a grander green that... is not within these woods in which I stand

“…Дүрт батыр бер йыйылып,
Бергә ултырып уйлаған;
Яйыҡ, Нөгөш, Һаҡмарҙар,
Яңы йылға эҙләгән.
Иҙел һымаҡ, былар ҙа
Алмашлашып, бер-бере
Булат менән сапҡан ти, –
Уларҙан да өс йылға
Шылтырашып аҡҡан, ти.
Былар халыҡты йыйғандар,
Дүрт батырға бүлгәндәр;
Дүрт йылғаны буйлатып,
Торлаҡ ҡороп таралып,
Айырым донъя ҡорғандар.
Дүрт батырҙың исеме
Дүрт йылғаға ат булған,
Онотолмаҫ зат булып,
Быуын-быуын ҡалғандар.”
(Excerpt of a Bashkir epic poem)

(…So again the baturs gathered
And determined that new waters
For the nation be discovered,
Consequently Ithel’s brothers,
Yayik, Nogosh and young Hakmar,
One by one drew out their battle-swords
For to cut the mounts asunder,
And three streams came running, bubbling,
And the elders, the four baturs,
At these streams their folk divided,
At each stream a tribe to settle,
Thus the names of the four baturs
Having passed onto their streams’ names,
Shall not sink into oblivion,
And the coming generations
Will forever keep their memory.)
