Grape leaf, grape-basket lid,
Autumn came early this year.
Grape leaves turned yellow on the mountain of Badacsony
Frost bites, autumn came early this year.
Pinot Gris is already inside a barrel in the wine-press house
All wine-growers praise their own new wine.
Cold winds, awful clouds
Will bring the cold winter,
Cold winds are blowing above Balaton.
Mallards are cuddling together between the reeds,
Hard world will be there, if every leak is frozen,
Ice of Balaton cracks with a loud rumbling.
From Fűzfő, From Csopak,
The winter is fleeing before spring.
The sky is floating lamb clouds from the direction of Fűzfő,
Wave is flickering, lapping the shore, it is weakened by the pier,
Fishing raftboat is swaying in the middle of the lake,
They are netting fish in the waters of Balaton.
Sunflower, dry weed,
High temperature, the lake is tiny.
Sunflower grows ripe, the summer is scrotching,
Swarm of midges flies back and forth,
A ferry from Tihany berthed, the ferryman is joyful,
He is peeking on pretty girls behind his mustage.
