Hozd el, Isten [English translation]

All the troubles, pains of my long journey,

the pages of a hundred books aren’t enough to contain them,

a thousand songs cannot tell

all that the birds of the sky sing.

Some things pained me, others came that hurt me,

doubt and sorrow often troubled me, too.

I acquired a loyal enemy,

and a sibling said farewell forever.

If I found a path I walked it,

I didn’t hesitate, didn’t wait either,

I raised dreams and secrets

and never forgot my word.

I never ceased to insist on being in the right,

and suffered a hundred times for it.

Bring forth, God, that day,

let it extinguish sadness and sorrow.

I walked a lot and cared,

I followed the light of the rising sun

toward the pure sky with pure heart,

I forgot sorrow and looked for the good.

May you bring that day, God,

let the red dawn bloom in the night,

let grief and trouble hurt me no more,

may you bring that day, God!
