Where will you ride, brother?

'Where will you ride, brother?
Putting on shoes in the evening?'
Go, sister, do not ask
Bring me my hat
 
'Where will you ride, brother?
I brought you your hat'
Go, sister, do not ask
Bring me my sword
 
'Where will you ride, brother?
I brought you your sword'
Go, sister, do not ask
Saddle my horse
 
'Where will you ride, brother?
I saddled your horse'
I will ride far, far away
To defend my fathers' land
 
Choose Dievs, my pathway
And watch over my body
So that I can easily
Win victory over my enemies
 

When The Sun Was Rising

When the sun was rising
Brother was saddling the horse
Rise, dear sister, verdant flower
Light a bright flame
 
I rose early in the morning
Washed my face
I will bid farewell to father and mother
For we may not meet again
 
While riding down the road
While spurring on my horse
Oh, I saw a dear maiden
In the granary, near a chest
 
Oh why are you opening the chest?
Why are you cutting the linen?
I will not wear your shirt
While I am a soldier
 
The king will give us his horses
Horses with proud saddles
We will be dressed alike
Like a mother's sons
 
Mountains will fall into the forest
Rivers will flow with blood
Yet we will stand solidly
Until we defeat our enemy
 

A Cresced Bird Sings

A crested bird sings
From atop the stable rafters
 
Go, sister, give a listen
What news the bird has brought
 
It brought news that
Brother must go to war
 
Go, sister into the garden
And adorn brother's cap
 
She adorned it while singing
And sent him off while crying
 
Don't cry my sister
But wait for my return
 
If you can't await me
Then wait then for my horse
 
After three years, on the fourth
My horse finally returned
 
She asked to the horse
Where it left the rider
 
The rider stayed there
Where men lie like oaks
 
The wind rustled their hair
The sun whitened their bones
 
There rode sons of Dievs
Gathering up their souls
 

Long I heard, now I see

Long I heard, now I see
Dievs's grey horses
Dievs's grey horses
Adorned with silver droplets
 
In darkness Dievs arrived
Don't know where to put his horse
Ride sister at night watch at grass
Let him into the apple grove
 
Dievs placed his horse
On a stone to rest
So his hooves wouldn’t rust
In the tillable land
 
On the road I found
The horse Dievs had ridden
Golden saddle on its back
Silver bridle
 

Prussian Maid Rides To The War

The Prussian maid rode to the war
In place of her brother
 
Goodbye father, mother
I face a long journey
 
I rode a long way
And found a green grove
 
I found a green grove
And saw the flags of war
 
I saw the flags of war
I saw the warriors fighting
 
Good day, the masters of war
Will you let me fight too?
 
Ride home, Prussian maid
Feed your mother's cows
 
Feed your mother's cows
And father's horses
