Good luck with that. Slavic languages are the most difficult to learn. I speak one myself and even I can only understand a few parts of this song. :sweat_smile:

You can sing it without learning Czech, just repeat what you hear! Not saying it’s easy but definitely doable, I used to do that with some Russian songs.

A few (dozens) mugs of beer will help you with it for sure. Not with the pronounciation (believe me - a lot of Czech folks can’t pronounce their own language correctly), but the true spirit of the song would be there! :smiley:

Let’s learn Czech by this song like Mettalica :wink:

beware of trolls

Just about my favourite moment in the game, that song

I love it too, I’d offer to join you guys but my voice would be too high. The best game song since Skyrim if you ask me!

When you guys manage to sing together please record it and post it on the forum, that would be fun!

very hard for the beginning… but okay, want to hear the records too :smile:

Translation:
The misery, plague and hunger came
No guy endures this
At the county fell awful sadness
Who had legs, long ago escaped
Children screams, women are afraid
Who lived yesterday, is only a dust today
The saints are already afraid
I would’nt want to be in their skin

We don’t care
So let’s take the one (beer)
And get drunk like on the judgment day
We will have fun
And we will celebrate in the morning
So roll the kegs out and sit down here

So sit down here
And bare them (=boobs) out
Show the boobs like wagons
Tomorrow is the judgment day
So pour me right now
Let the world spin
Nobody knows at all today
Whether tomorrow Jesus will appear
And it’s not the last time
