There’s now silence and snow and winter and death
Mist is foaming in the valleys and choking our breath
Mountains are standing in circles and wearing mourning white
I am keeping awake alone through this endless night
But now winds begin to sing softly from the far
From far beyond the forest, and the trail of stars
Shakes, and the heaven echoes what the weak winds sing
Because He rides on this trail, the son of the mightiest king
Snowstorm is raging do you hear the howling winds?
The pale stars are falling behind the riding prince
Do you feel the power that I feel?
Wake up wake up my brothers, the spring is near
If the forest
Comes into leaf
Blood will wash away
All of our grieves
We will stand together
With swords in our hands
And we retrieve
Our stolen lands
If the trees of Transsylvania
Send out bloody bud
The beds of rivers, the shores of lakes
Become reddish mud
We will paint all the streams
With their blood so red
If the forest comes into leaf
We will go back
