Once the sun got so tired
It fell asleep in the lap of a deep, green lake
Darkness hurt the people
She felt pity for us, she came among us
Yes, a pearl-haired girl came
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
That's how earth and sky came to be, green and blue like in the old times
Yes, a pearl-haired girl came
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
La-la-la
Dawning got 'up', she went home
(typo: A hajnal kelt, ő hazament)
Behind a blue mountain, among flowers
A little blue elephant tells a tale
Light sleeps on her beautiful pearl hair
(another typo: Szép gyöngyhaján alszik a fény)
Yes, a pearl-haired girl lives
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
Pearl hair lives in a paradise ever since
Yes, a pearl-haired girl lives
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
La-la-la. (twice)
When you are really alone
A little star falls to you
Let the snow-white pearls lead you
Like white stones [lead] the good wanderer
Yes, a pearl-haired girl is calling
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
She's waiting for us behind her pearls, between sky and earth
Yes, a pearl-haired girl is calling
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
She's waiting for us behind her pearls, between sky and earth
Yes, a pearl-haired girl is calling
Did I dream it or is it perhaps true
La-la-la
