by Sándor Petőfi (1823 - 1849)

Odanézzetek!
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Odanézzetek!
Csatára iramlik a fergeteg;
Paripája a szél, a nyargaló,
Kezében a felleg a lobogó,
Amelynek villám a nyele.
Vágtat vele, vágtat vele
Csatára, csatára...
Mint harsog trombitája,
A mennydörgés!

Oh fergeteg,
Ki a tornyokat
Eldöntögeted,
Kinek kezében kiszakad
A tölgy a bérc kebelébül,
Hol századok óta vénül,
Hatalmas fergeteg! ki nem szakíthatod
Az emberi szivbül a bánatot - -
