- Nagy mamuz az lábán kemény földet szántja, / Kemény fringia-kard oldalát támasztja; / Ez volt szigeti leventáknak virágja, / Bölcs, erős, gyors, haragos, mikor akarja.
- A large spur on his foot plows the hard earth, / A hard Fringian sword supports his flank; / This was the flower of Sziget’s knights, / Wise, strong, fast, fierce, when he wants.
