Текст песни и перевод на английский Arkona - Leshiy

Leshiy

Kak vo temnuju noch
Vyshel paren v les pobrodit
Vidit, Leshij sidit
Da-li liho slovo tverdit:
Chto zh ne sred bela dnja?
Podojdi ko mne - koli smel!
I poshel, podoshel
Rjadom s Leshim paren′ prisel
Sumel!

Leshij - glaz kosoj
Zadal vopros
Da ne prostoj, lihoj!
Zachem pod lunoj
Ty prishel narushit' moj pokoj lesnoj?

Jeh, kak paren da vskochil
Vyrvatsja ne smog - Leshij uvolok!
Jeh, kak Leshij uvolok
Da vo svoj mirok - navij ugolok!
Jeh, oi, da vo svoj mirok
Navij ugolok, chtob rabotal vprok!
Jeh, vorotishsja nazad
Budesh staryj ded, cherez mnogo let!

Kak cherez sotnju let vozvratilsja da starikom
Ni kola, ni dvora.
Da-li smert vstrechat uzh pora
Oi-oi, jeto ne so mnoj!
Byl-to, net, da mudra moral:
Vo noch s lesu ty proch!
Po lune v lesu ne guljaj!

Pod staroj sosnoj
Da sidit Leshij - glaz kosoj, lihoj!
Da ohranjaet terem svoj, lesnoj!

Leshiy

As in the dark night
A young man went out to wander in the forest
He sees Leshiy sitting
Uttering wicked words:
Why not in broad daylight?
Come to me - if you dare!
And he went, came close
The young man came and sat down beside Leshiy
He managed it!

Leshiy - one-eyed
Asked a question
Not an easy one, wicked!
Why under the moon
Have you come to disturb my forest peace?

The young man jumped up
Could not break free - Leshiy dragged him away!
How Leshiy dragged him away
To his world - the corner of the underworld!
How, oh, how to his world
The corner of the underworld, to work for good!
How you will return
You will be an old man, after many years!

How after a hundred years he returned as an old man
Neither home nor yard.
Is it already time to meet death?
Oh no, not with me!
There was, indeed, wise wisdom:
Do not go out into the forest at night!
Do not wander in the forest by moonlight!

Under the old pine tree
There sits Leshiy - one-eyed, wicked!
He protects his forest home!
