The sunset filled with blood Night drives the noise away No rest in silence The flame of bonfire is rising
The great crowd in silence Waiting for the prayer The old men are singing “Take and bury!”
Burn down the bodies Perun Bestow their dust to earth Sepulchral bonfire of war We are given to you Black wind drives the people’s dust Amidst the bloody coals dust The dust of fire, The dust of fire
Call of the war, Howling cry Fiery god, Dust to dust
By holy singing it is hymned By holy faith it is risen Sepulchral bonfire of war You were born in fire Cold wind’ll disperse the pale smoke of bonfire Amidst the bloody coals dust The dust of fire, The dust of fire
Call of the war, Howling cry Fiery god, Dust to dust
