Kaźń [English translation]

Young Cossack:

With this blade I will deprive her of life

This beautiful girl strongly bound.

Her face is pale, her eyes are hazy

How delightful it will be to cut her up!

Maria:

Madness in the eyes,

It's not my beloved!

Not the one I fell in love with!

The knife is risen in his hand,

My end is near!

Mom! I’m so very scared!

Young Cossack:

With this blade I will deprive her of life,

I will rip open her body, deprive her of breath!

Cut the skin, chop the fingers,

And I shall drink up the innocent blood!

Maria:

Madness in the eyes,

It's not my beloved!

Not the one I loved!

I am calling you, Mother! Help me please!

Your doll is at my heart!
