Sügislaul
V. Tormis
Jälle tulnud on pimedad ööd,
Again have come the dark nights,
Jälle kased on koltuma löönd.
Again the birches are turning yellow.
Tuulest kantuna lendlevad lehed,
Leaves fly in the wind,
Kurba kahinat akna all tehes,
Sorrowfully murmuring under my window
Vastu ruutugi lendavad nad
They fly against the windowpane
Rinda valusa nukruse saan.
In my breast comes a painful sadness.
Miks nii kiiresti minugi päevad
Why do my days also pass so quickly
Aega andmata kaduma läevad
Without giving time, get lost
Aega andmata nõnda kui tuul
Without giving time, as the wind
Lehti armutult raputab puult
Without mercy shakes the leaves from the trees.
Jälle kased on koltuma löönd.
Again the birches are turning yellow.
Tuulest kantuna lendlevad lehed,
Leaves fly in the wind,
Kurba kahinat akna all tehes,
As I murmur sorrowfully under my window,
Vastu ruutugi lendavad nad
Against the windowpane they fly
Rinda valusa nukruse saan.
In my breast comes a painful sadness.
Jälle tulnud on pimedad ööd.
Again have come the dark nights.
Miks nii kiiresti minugi päevad
Why do my days also pass so quickly
Aega andmata kaduma läevad
Without giving time, get lost
Aega andmata nõnda kui tuul
Without giving time, as the wind
Lehti armutult raputab puult
Without mercy shakes the leaves from the trees.
Jälle kased on koltuma löönd.
Again the birches are turning yellow.
Tuulest kantuna lendlevad lehed,
Leaves fly in the wind,
Kurba kahinat akna all tehes,
As I murmur sorrowfully under my window,
Vastu ruutugi lendavad nad
Against the windowpane they fly
Rinda valusa nukruse saan.
In my breast comes a painful sadness.
Jälle tulnud on pimedad ööd.
