2. Éjszaka  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Fekszik a test, de a sok
lebegő árny a falaknál.
Jár a zsebóra, mereng
a pohár víz, hallgat a naptár.

3. Kisfiú  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Ordit a napfényben.
Üstöke bronz, szeme láng.
Csak neki szolgál már 
rég a fehér elefánt.

4. Mese  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Csöndesen alszik a hegy
kicsi barlangjában a béke;
még csecsemőnyi csupán,
szelíd őz szoptatja naponta
s rejteni szép hálót
fon a pók a bejárat elébe.
