Oh black raven, quit your chase.
Why’d you circle over me?
I am not your prey, you won’t get me.
Oh black raven, leave me be.
Quit your crying, old black raven
Quit to circle overhead.
Nothing for you, oh black raven,
I’m not yours, no, I ain’t dead.
Now I am wounded, and this token
Which my mother gave to me,
It will be my final solace
Oh black raven, leave me be.
Fly to my homestead, black raven,
Find my dear mother’s home.
Tell her lastly, oh black raven,
That for motherland I fall.
Take this handkerchief and carry
To my darling love’s abode,
Tell her that I now set her free.
And another’s hand I hold.
I took a bride, quiet and humble:
We were wed in open field.
Here she is, my silent partner -
Tempered, sharp, my saber’s steel.
Hungry arrow did us marry
Amidst fatal battle’s squall
I hear death’s steps, oh black raven,
I am yours, to you I fall.
Old Black Raven, there’s a reason
You were sent by gods to me.
Fly down towards me, to my ear.
Whisper your last song to me.
