| Tell us, Kurbads, where have you been | |
| In the foreign lands what you have seen? | |
| People have long sung songs about you | |
| Of devils and monsters you have fought | |
| I have been in the Underworld | |
| Can anyone believe that? | |
| I chopped down three devils there | |
| And saved the king's daughter | |
| Tell us, Kurbads, say the truth | |
| How did you descend into the Underworld? | |
| Did it really go easy for you? | |
| And how did you ever return back home? | |
| It was hard down there | |
| But I had powerful words with me * | |
| They helped and protected me | |
| Even Laima herself paved my way | |
| The Snake Witch bit my rope in two | |
| I fell back | |
| And was forced to go and find another way out | |
| The monstrous werewolf I overcame | |
| I helped a blind man | |
| Regain his eyesight | |
| The nestling of a great eagle | |
| I saved from the hail | |
| For such deeds Eagle repaid me greatly | |
| Great eagle carried me | |
| Out to the surface | |
| Then I arrived home at last | |
| That's how it was | |
| That's what happened to me in the Underworld | |
| I was born a child of iron | |
| A mother of steel gave me life | |
| I put on a jacket of iron | |
| A coat made of steel | |
| They struck at me, stabbed at me | |
| Like a block of oak | |
| They couldn't hit or stab me | |
| Like to a chunk of steel |
