First page translation: ATTILA No one had yet thought of resting on Munzuk’s trunk. The endless drinking of kumiz continued, with new fires stoking the flames. “Look at Protomos,” murmured the trembling Ruffus. It was as if the stars had descended to earth, flickering all around the fires. Only a Homer could have sung the beauty of the scene illuminated by the red glow of the flames. Protomos, seated, tucked his bare knees under his tunic. The cool breeze sweeping across the steppe reached his face and warmed it with gentle caresses, while he turned his gaze towards the barbarian tents. His face was radiant and soft. “Blessed are those who can sing like Hadserel, even here on the banks of the Alizumi!” he exclaimed. Suddenly, the deep voices of the barbarians filled the air. They could not understand the words, though their melody resonated in their ears, leaving them enchanted and captivated by its ancient and mysterious harmony. The tents swayed gently, as if nodding to the songs. “Shall we join in, like friends of these noble warriors?” asked Ruffus, smiling as if it were the most natural thing in the world. Protomos did not respond immediately. He simply watched the firelight play on the weapons and armor of the assembled men and then replied: “No, it would be better to hold back. A poet should never walk so freely in the tents of pagans! It is our duty to stand with dignity. Fear their savagery, Ruffus, for these men of Attila’s host are fearsome!” To which Honorius, the gracious Caesar himself, outfitted them with golden armbands and shields and urged them to conquer all with the strength of eloquence and spirit! “We are Greeks!” Protomos said proudly. “Barbarians remain barbarians! Slavs and Germans will—” This excerpt conveys a vivid scene set around a campfire, with characters observing the warriors of Attila’s host, reflecting on their surroundings and expressing a sense of cultural pride mingled with caution towards the “barbarians” they observe. Let me know if you’d like further assistance! First page Hungarian: ATILLA. Munazuk torán még nem gondolt senki a pihenésre. Fáradhatatlanul járt körbe a kumisztömlo, újabb és újabb hasábokat vetettek a tüzre. - Nézd Protomos - súgta megilletödve Ruffus. - Mintha lehullt volna a sillagos ég, körben a láthatárig enek a tizek. Csak egy Homér tudna mélton eldalolni ennek az estnek a szépségét. Protomos fázósan húzta meztelen térdet tunikája alá. Hüvös szél sepert végig a pusztan és mig kezét melengette a tüz közelében, szinte irigyelte a barbárokat börbekecsükért. Fazott, hat rosszkedvuen vont vállat: Bolond aki Hadesröl zeng éneket, mikor az eliziumi mezökröl is dalolhatna! • A tüzek mello kobzosok éneke szurodött hozzájuk. Szavukat nem értették, daluk idegenül csengett fülükben, egyhangúan, álmositóan hangzott és mégis valami megnerezhetetlen varázs radt belöle. Dalolt a puszta. A nádas zúgott igy, amikor ellovagoltunk mellette, - Tagy Tiber partjan azolajfik, ha Afrika szele jnjorg agaik között — tünodött Ruffus és boldog volt, hogy itt lehetett a hún pusztán. - Mondd inkább, hogy Plutó ördogei kacagnak igy, mikor az elátkozottak lelkeit várják! Magad is pogány leszel a poganyok között, esa sokáig nézd oket és hallgasd kárhozatbadönto dalaikat! Igazuk van a gótoknak. Boszorkányok és démonok szeretkezése szülhetett esak ilyen ocsmány népet! Akikhez mégis Honorius, a kegyes császar, im arany-nyal és ékesszoval böven felszerelt követeket küldött, téged és engem, hogy szövetségül nyerie ket! - hajolt meg gúnyosan Ruffus, de Protomos sak megvetöen morogta: - Barbárok ellen barbárokal!
