Narua [English translation]

Wobbling weakly, a hoop on a forehead

Twisting tightly, a wrist in a bandage

Looked for heaven, finally found it

A perch as a gate, an oiled rope

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

It's time to march

The old and crazy ones behind the woodshed

The graveyard churning of flesh

It's a pit that pays off

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

The trance-troops go shoulder to shoulder

Towards death with bright eyes

Still, from the darkness of a shadow,

The dawn of a new, grand world can arise

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

For the people!

People are told to go

Through the gate without return

As ash, as smoke from the chimney

They rise towards the sky

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

The past is not reminisced here

There is a hurry to dig graves

The leader commands: dig away

The spirit of the times - take the spirit away1

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

The trance-troops go shoulder to shoulder

Towards death with bright eyes

Still, from the darkness of a shadow,

The dawn of a new, grand world can arise

Rope!

Rope!

Rope!

For the people!

1. "Henki pois" is often understood as killing someone/that someone is dead, so literally it would mean pretty much that the spirit of the time is killing things/people.
