Lyric Translation: Jaszmagyarok - Meghalt ez az orszag (This country has died)



This country has died a little bit.
Many people have died as well.
I as well?  I as well, I died a little as well.
Everything is different now, but I'm still Magyar.
Still?  As long as I live, yes, I am!

When the homeland rises again,
The people will rise with it too
The light will rise,
And I will rise with it too.

We won't let our lands be stolen anymore
We won't be shamed to our very cores anymore.

We will sow the seeds and water them
With the shimmering waters of our rivers
We still believe in the power of our nation
We will plant trees in place
Of those that were cut down.

This country has died a little.
Many people shut their eyes to the sight
Of the Magyar race dwindling.
The rivers cry all the way
To the Carpathian Basin
I do too - I cry a little too.

This country has died, and many people died in it
But we haven't, have we?
We will still fight regardless
When the nation rises anew
Its people and light rise with it too
We won't let our lands be stolen
And our ancestors be shamed
They cannot insult us to the blood anymore
They cannot insult us to our core.
