Roman Roczeń - Ballada o wilku

I still remember that winter, no matter what the year is,
Like the freeze caught us on Christmas, it held us until the Easter.
Snow has covered the area, wind has saw right through the house,
Sad yelling of the wolves has been heard all day and night.

I've been going somewhere at dawn, the cold engine constantly went out,
I've been cursing the world and life let the wreck be burnt toast.
Suddenly somewhere out of the snow bank it jumped out and felt right under my wheels.
Looking into the eyes of death, the wolf, which had enough of life.

Everybody has written this day,
When the time is ending, when you need to fade away,
You need to go roughly through the life, don't regret your strength,
Take a sassy look into death's eyes, calmly, like this wolf

Old John has left us, it was hard to dig his grave,
He left the house completely empty, that frost is not for him,
John had a difficult life, he survived all three wars,
He passed away quietly and fearlessly, he passed away with pride like this wolf

I remember that winter, it snowed all the forest,
The hungry wolves yelled sadly, someone didn't return now and then
But I dream night by night, when it proudly stood before the hood,
Looking into the eyes of death, the wolf, which had enough of life.

Everybody has written this day,
When the time is ending, when you need to fade away,
You need to go roughly through the life, don't regret your strength,
Take a sassy look into death's eyes, calmly, like this wolf

With a head proudly raised go with one step through the doorstep.
On the other side behind the curtain, a good Lord is waiting for us
