Kodály Zoltán: Epigrams No. 1. - The Fields (Hazaszeretet)

Sung by Kodály Institute student Wenjun Wang.
Original poem by Melinda Kistétényi zeneakademia.h..., translated by Geoffry Russell-Smith
The fields shimmer, the fields so high with waving golden grain,
Where a few short lives ago, lay blood in dappled stain,
Spilled not once but many times.
