| Surmaga kahasse kaevati hauda
| A grave was dug in the grave
|
| Roostetand laugaste üska
| Rust on the back of the lakes
|
| Noil nurmedel laule enam ei laulda
| No more songs are sung on those lawns
|
| Hallid habemed tunnevad tuska
| Gray beards feel pain
|
| Silmad, täis päeva, seal tambiti kalmu
| Eyes, full day, there is a grave
|
| Enne kui taevas näid koitu
| Before you see the dawn in the sky
|
| Vaid raudrõngas käsi ja veristet jalgu
| Only an iron ring on the hand and bloody feet
|
| Ja korjuste põlengupaiku
| And carcasses to the fire
|
| Verisel vaiadel valati müüri
| A wall was poured on the bloody piles
|
| Lätete lämbesse uttu
| You pour warm mist
|
| Siin manati maahinge madalaid juuri
| Here were the low roots of the earth's soul
|
| Et kailude uimades kuhtuks
| To make the nails swim while swimming
|
| Kalk kolpadekuhi all müüridevalle
| Lime under the pile of walls
|
| On purpurse verega kaetud
| It is covered in purple blood
|
| Seal kiharaid valgeid ja pardasid halle
| There the curly whites and the gray ones aboard
|
| On turvaste tandrile maetud
| It is buried in a peat bog
|
| See linn seisab tummalt, on vaikides visa
| This city stands silent, stubbornly silent
|
| Ei elavaid tänavail kohta
| No living on the streets
|
| Vaid sootuule voog ja kaarnate kisa
| Just a breeze and a shout of bark
|
| Toob meenutust muldvanast rahvast
| Brings a reminder of an ancient people
|
| Need vallid on koolnutel kõrgusse laotud
| These ramparts are stacked high
|
| Ja koolnutel raiutaks maha
| And the dead would be cut down
|
| Nüüd siin surmamüüri päevad on loetud
| Now the days of the Death Wall are numbered
|
| Veel enne kui taevas näed eha
| Even before you see the sky
|
| Surmamüür külmkalge
| The wall of death in the cold
|
| Surmamüür kalmvalge
| The wall of death is white
|
| Surmamüür viib usku
| The death wall leads to faith
|
| Surmamüür toob tuska | The death wall brings pain |
