"

It got cool and they lit a fire. They spread the fur next to the fire and lay down on it. The sky was filled with stars, and later the moon came up. He put his head on the girl's lap, and the girl sang. (...) In the morning they chased each other in the dewy grass like deer. Then they dipped in the spring water. They splashed each other and laughed, and the forest rang with their laughter, and the trees, the squirrels, the birds, who saw them, wondered and happily asked each other: Has the beginning of the world returned? The happy time?

Hungarian

"Hűvös lett és tüzet gyújtottak. A tűz mellé kiterítették a bundát, s elhevertek rajta. Az égbolt megtelt csillagokkal, s később feljött a Hold. Ő a leány ölébe hajtotta fejét, s a leány énekelt. (...) Reggel kergetőztek a harmatos fűben, mint az őzek. Aztán megferedtek a forrás vizében. Locsolták egymást és kacagtak, és az erdő csengett a kacagásuktól és a fák, a mókusok, a madarak, akik látták őket, csodálkoztak, és boldogan kérdezték egymástól: visszatért-e a világ kezdete? A boldog idő?"
