Текст песни Тол Мириам - Граждане Кале

As from childhood we were taught in the church,
one man shall die for the people.
And six of them came out of the gate,
but thousands did not object.

None of them is not bound by an oath,
but the first to be the last,
and wash the feet of the beggar
once in a lifetime the ruler is obliged.

In exchange for a saving captivity
six corpses - a cheap fee
for the hail of merchants and prelates,
for those who stayed in Calais.

All farther away from the walls,
all the key from the gate is heavier.
The ropes are tighter on the neck.
You will be conquered by Calais.

Go through our land!
Neither fair fight nor betrayal
do not wait. Leave the walls
all citizens of the city of Calais.

They stand, without bending their knees,
While their head reigns.
The executioner will not leave cares
about the heads of the citizens of Calais.

That's how it is at dawn
the fathers of the city came in handy.
God tidied up the best to pray
about the orphans of the city of Calais.

But the victim does not sleep in the ground
and pulls into the future hand.
And who will save our grandchildren
from the fate of Calais?
From the deed of citizens Calais?
