The song preserves the good and the holy,
And what's good enough to survive this desolate present?
What is the mortal present worth?
The only thing real in life is just a memory.

In life you're cared for by these three:
God, parents, and good friends.
Worship the first, respect the second, and never forget the third.

On the road of Life
If your feet get caught by a stone,
If your eyes get filled
With tears of pain,
If your heart is bleeding from
The arrows of evil,
When you're pushed away by the one
You lived and died for,
When you can't find hope among
The dark clouds of misery,
Let there be balm on your wounds:
God himself!

This may be the most precious pearl in your heart and soul.
Time passes, marble shatters,
But our friendship stays for us forever.

As a memory to Magda!
If you are sad just sing happily.
Don't let anyone see your falling tears.
Stay silent as the cold grave,
Which buries everything in itself.
Hide your sadness within the veil of a smile,
Let the crowds envy you,
They can't count on the balm of life,
That isn't known by them.
Love:
Klári

As a memory!
Your arm is strong, your heart is noble,
Space is infinite that calls you to work.
And if you do things right,
A hymn will come to you,
That shows you the way.
And if in your busy life you stop hearing the hymn,
A quiet word will come to you,
And take you from this selfish world,
And through your clear heart
It will become poetry.
(Madách Imre, Hungarian writer)

When childhood first awakes to consciousness,
When its faith first is being torn by destiny,
When you, heart and soul, cry out in pain,
Beware, that's when life begins!

Memory!
The world is an old, worn-out building,
And it has sunk deep down.
If you walk straight with your head held high,
You can easily be broken.
If you're afraid of your head's breaking, bend.
But I'd rather break my head than bend my knees!
(Petofi Sandor, Hungarian poet)

As a memory to Magda!
If someone speaks badly of a friend,
Don't believe it, you love him no matter what.
If the whole world judges your friend guilty,
Let your friend be the victor and not the world,
Because a good friend, my dear Magda,
Is such a precious thing,
You can't find anything like it in the whole world.
With lots and lots of love.

Let us remember when we stop loving,
And let us hope even if the past is painful,

Who've learned to feel and suffer.

There's not such a poor emptiness,
Where a man couldn't find his own little green plant.
And if it's got buried by the desert wind,
The man cries for it a while,
But keeps on going with eternal hope.

As a memory!
It's hard to find a good friend,
And a true, whole-hearted partner.
But it's even harder to be separated
From the one you love,
When it's such a precious thing you can't find anything like it on the whole Earth.
