[Verse 1]

Két kezed munkája

The work of your two hands

[1. versszak] · Verse 1

Mikor a hajnal ébredt a házak felett,

When dawn awoke above the houses,

Te már a földön jártál, a nap is veled kelt.

You were already on the ground, the sun rose with you.

A traktor hangja messze vitte a dalát,

The sound of the tractor carried its song far,

A két kezed munkája formálta a határt.

The work of your two hands shaped the boundary.

Volt, hogy az élet súlya válladra nehezedett,

There were times when the weight of life rested on your shoulders,

De megőrizted mindig a hitedet.

But you always preserved your faith.

Ha egyszer el is estél, mindig felálltál,

If you ever fell, you always got back up,

A legnehezebb úton is továbbindultál.

You continued even on the most difficult path.

[Refrén] · Chorus

Két kezed munkája a szívünkben él,

The work of your two hands lives in our hearts,

Minden ház és minden föld rólad mesél.

Every house and every field tells about you.

Mihály bácsi, ma neked szól a dal,

Uncle Mihály, today the song is for you,

A szeretet, amit adtál, örökre itt marad.

The love you gave will remain here forever.

Nem kérted, hogy az élet könnyű utat adjon,

You didn't ask life to give an easy path,

Csak erőt, hogy a szíved mindig hű maradjon.

Only strength, so your heart would always remain faithful.

S amit egész életen át értünk tettél,

And what you did for us your whole life long,

Ott él mindabban, amit felépítettél.

It lives in everything you built.

[2. versszak] · Verse 2

Piros MTZ-vel jártad a határt,

You traveled the fields with a red MTZ,

Sok tavasz és sok ősz látott téged már.

Many springs and many autumns have seen you.

Volt krumpli és káposzta, annyi dolgos nyár,

There were potatoes and cabbage, so many hardworking summers,

Ma kék traktor indul, ha hív a határ.

Today a blue tractor starts, if the field calls.

Házat is építettél, tégláról téglára,

You also built a house, brick by brick,

Minden munkád szeretet volt a család javára.

All your work was love for the benefit of the family.

Márta melletted volt a hosszú évek során,

Márta was by your side through the long years,

Ketten mentetek át az élet sok viharán.

Together you went through life's many storms.

[Refrén] · Chorus

Két kezed munkája a szívünkben él,

The work of your two hands lives in our hearts,

Minden ház és minden föld rólad mesél.

Every house and every field tells about you.

Mihály bácsi, ma neked szól a dal,

Uncle Mihály, today the song is for you,

A szeretet, amit adtál, örökre itt marad.

The love you gave will remain here forever.

Nem kérted, hogy az élet könnyű utat adjon,

You didn't ask life to give an easy path,

Csak erőt, hogy a szíved mindig hű maradjon.

Only strength, so your heart would always remain faithful.

S amit egész életen át értünk tettél,

And what you did for us your whole life long,

Ott él mindabban, amit felépítettél.

It lives in everything you built.

[Átkötés] · Bridge

Márti, Angelika, Misi büszkén néznek rád,

Márti, Angelika, Misi look at you with pride,

Mert tudják, mennyi mindent tettél értük éveken át.

Because they know how much you did for them over the years.

Nem számoljuk a korán kelt napokat,

We don't count the days you woke up early,

Csak látjuk, mennyi minden őrzi a nyomodat.

We only see how much preserves your trace.

S ha néha csendben ülsz, és messze néz szemed,

And if you sometimes sit quietly, and your eyes look far away,

Tudd, a munkádnál is nagyobb a szereteted.

Know that your love is greater than your work.

[Zárás] · Outro

Hetvennyolc év mögötted, öröm és nehézség,

Seventy-eight years behind you, joy and hardship,

Nekünk az a legszebb, hogy itt vagy velünk még.

The most beautiful thing for us is that you are still with us.

Ma érted szól a nóta, könny csillan szemünkben,

Today the tune is for you, a tear glistens in our eyes,

Mert kimondani nehéz, milyen sokat érsz nekünk.

Because it's hard to say how much you mean to us.

S ha egyszer megkérdeznék, mi az igazi kincs:

And if they ever asked what the real treasure is:

Az, hogy vagy nekünk, és ennél nagyobb nincs.

It's that we have you, and there's nothing greater than that.
