ei ieties, nei kardo
Mes nebijome, nebijome,
- eisime į mūšį
Nei jūsų akmenų, nei skydų
Mes nebijome, nebijome,
- eisime į mūšį
Nei jūsų sienų, nei griovių
Mes nebijome, nebijome,
- eisime į mūšį
Ir jūsų žirgų, anei riterių
Mes nebijome, nebijome,
- eisime į mūšį...!

To the land of thy marshes
Lay to rest on thy darkened night
Volquin their master
To the order of brothers of thy sword
The supreme duke Vykintas
Of Samogitian forces
With almighty Mindaugas
Slaying men with spears not with swords
Hear the thunders in the distance
Hear the roaring hordes
For thy battle of the Sun
Shall unite us all
Till the end of the moonlight
Till the wounded sun
Till the horns of victory
Shall be heard for one more time
On the land of the marshes
Heavy armored knights
Fear to loosen their horses
They shall die on their final night
Fled into enchanted forests
Which of few who could run
Struck by thundering forces
Of Samigalians crashing hands

Memel (1257)

|

Sound of the horns in the distance
Will praise our ride
Born with the spear in our hands
And fierce in our eyes
All Samogitian forces
Prepared to the fight
Christian blood was spilt
All day and all night
Duke Alminas won that night
Memel castle graved by fight
Defeated rabble escaped that night
At Memelburg Livonians died
Memel castle reigned by blood
There Alminas drew the fight
Where the Dange river meets the sea
Kuršių marios - victory!

Skuodas (1259)

The coming war
The endless fall
Skuodas Battle
Till the ground shall fall under
Invading Courland
To raid and kill
Invading Courland
To fear no saint nor father
Fear all the roaring thunders Perkūnas
Call of the warriors to stand and fight
Tears of old Raganos shall bring the flood
Wash away them Christians from Courland
Won by soldiers
One by one they fear
Land of ambers
Slay them with our spears
Ride soldiers
Ride on with no fear
Fall under
Under our great spears
Make them wonder
Wonder why they here
Land of ambers
Land of our kin

Durbe (1260)
06:09
|
|||
Traveling into distanced forests
Hills and roads
Riding mighty Danish horses
Carrying swords
Heavy armored knights are coming
Blessed by their pope
Along the help of the Prussian army
Led by Bruchard
Along thy shore of Durbe lake
They've met their death by Žemaitė fate
And all their songs, songs of hate
They've met their death in Durbe lake
To the endless winds on thy shores
That for ages blows through thy crops
Send a message to all thy hordes
To the day their cross shall fall
To the hill by the misty forests
Road became red
By the blood of the Christian forces
End to their raid
Pagan spirits lay them wounded
On Alminas’ hands
Then we crushed them with thy soldiers
By Žemaitė lance
Tame krėsle
Tame aukso
Ten sėdėjo motinėlė
Ir sūnelį minavojo

The Baltic Crusade
04:56
|
|||
From Baltic sea onto shore
With swords in hand came men of war
What have thy men from sea have done
To you my innocent garden
Thy roses trampled
Thy lilies scatered all around
Red flowers turned into dust
Here i sit and grieve with golden tears
Whatever shall i do from now
Did thy storm winds blow and strike thunders
Unleash a foaming flood of fire
Thy roses trampled
Thy lilies scatered all around
Red flowers turned into dust

Lubawa (1263)
04:34
|
|||
Kulma land behold the pagan’s hand
Rose against their conquerors
and raid
Drove the knights to take as much
for defence
Taking captives to Lubawa lands
Swords in hand
Fierce of men together we stand
Deforming knights
Killed their masters took their hearts
Fight or die
Hear thy call the enemy’s sigh
Pagans ride
To take out Helmrich’s and Dietrich’s pride
Sambians, Warmians
Bartians, Natangians
Sudovians, Pomesanians
The Prussians, tribes rise pagans

Karuse (1270)
06:12
|

Where the sun sets
Over frozen jūra
Near the village
Named of, named of Karuse
Between the island
Muhu to the mainland
Set to conquer
Riding out brothers of the sword
Duke Traidenis marching out on the ice
March to the north guided by Perkūnas
Set out their sleighs barricading the post
Striking spears with heathen force
Came out morning
Raised by blood red sunrise
Hold thy glory
Over, over the knights' last breath
Armies gather
On thy frozen moon sound
Near Saaremaa
Fighting on, on the sea of ice
Vyrus kirto
Vyrus kirto kaip medžius
