Текст песни Ф. Кёнеман, М.Конопницкая, исп. Ф.И.Шаляпин - Как король шёл на войну

How the king went to war
To a foreign land -
Copper pipes played
For victorious battles!

And how Stakh went to war
To a foreign land -
The Russian Polyushko rustled
To the rupture, to the nedolushka ...

Bullets whistle in war
Death wanders in smoke, in fire ...
Brave warriors are fighting
Warriors moan,
The homespuns are moaning ...

The battle is over ... The trumpet is thundering ...
With a grave wound, Stakh lies ...
And the king on the bloody path
Returns with glory!

And towards from the gate
The people poured out loudly,
The castle of the capital trembled
From the bell ringing!

And how he lay in the grave Stakh -
The wind sang a song in the bushes
And it rang behind the oak trees
Purple bells ...
