Kogu Tõde Jüriööst [English translation]
I was the only woman who stayed in the yard that night
I stood alone in the moonlight with no weapon at my waist
In the distance their hands have fallen, and in the distance their heads fly
Our troops of good men stay laying there
They came out of the bushes with eyes bursting into flame
They were greatly surprised to find only a woman in front of them
I stood there
In front of them
On St. George's Night
I was very much afraid, I didn't show any fear
One of the enemies got hugs from me, I caressed the other's head
Then I stuffed their bellies full, so they slept until dawn
They didn't know that there was hogweed1 in the food
They came out of the bushes with eyes bursting into flame
They were greatly surprised to find only a woman in front of them
I stood there
In front of them
On St. George's Night
The deaths stopped there, the general's hands black with slaughter
And a little girl, on that horribly bloody St. George's Night
