      I akcyźnik toj byŭ prysiahaŭsia i jon,
      Jak jamu chtoś danios, jak saczyŭ jon piać dzion
      Jak kacioł tam kipieŭ, jak hdzie braha była,

      And that official was present, and he testified
      About having received an anonymous report that prompted him to spy for five days.
      He spoke about the boiling cauldron, about the brew that was there
      And about how Piatruk wasn't fast enough to run away from that cauldron…
