"Marazula" - Belarusian version of the song-dance from the medieval mystery about Death, 15 c.
LYRICS (actual translation in English):

I am the Lady of all the living,
Over the great and small,
Over the old and young,
I bear the power.
No one, nowhere, ever
Will escape
An encounter with me
And the touch of my scythe.

Light the night up with torches,
Free your souls.
Spin in a wild circle dance
With the old Lady.
Sooner or later,
In health or in sickness,
The last night under the stars
You will spend with me.

Dance away my sinners,
The grief will disappear!
Drown your sorrow in wine,
Let go of your peace!
Dance as if it was your last dance,
For the fire of the soul would last!
Those who stop die at once,
Reaped by the scythe!

”Маразуля” – танец-песня з містэрыі 15 ст., прысвечаны Смерці, яе блізкасці, непрадказальнасці, а таму неабходнасці па-вар’яцку радавацца жыццю. Містэрыя Смерці хутка распаўсюдзілася і стала папулярнай ва ўсёй Еўропе, у тым ліку і ва Усходняй. Вельмі рэдкі познелацінскі тэкст перададзены гурту Стары Ольса з Італіі.   Пераклад на беларускую мову З.Сасноўскага.

Я уладарка над жывым,
Я гаспадыня над усім,
Над сталым і над маладым
Уладу я нясу.
Нідзе, ніколі, аніхто
Сустрэчы не пазбегне той,
Калі спаткаецца са мной,
Кране маю касу.

Са мной танцуйце коламі
І будзеце ўсе роўнымі,
Свяціце ноч паходнямі
З паненкаю старой.
Ці рана, а ці позна вы
Здаровыя ці хворыя
Апошню ноч пад зорамі
Сустрэнеце са мной.
 
Скачыце, грэшнікі мае,
Хай смутак вас паабміне,
Шукайце ісціну ў віне,
Ганіце прэч спакой!
Танцуйце як апошні раз,
Жыцця прамень каб не пагас!
Хто спыніцца – сканае ўраз,
Зарублены касой!

STARY OLSA is a medieval Belarusian music band. It was founded in 1999 by its present leader Zmicier Sasnoŭski and now consists of six musicians. It takes its name from an old brook in Belarus.
The band's repertoire includes Belarusian folk balladry and martial songs, Belarusian national dances, works of Belarusian Renaissance composers, compositions from Belarusian aulic music collections (e.g. Polack Notebook, Vilnia Notebook), Belarusian canticles of the 16th - early 17th centuries, as well as European popular melodies of the Middle Ages and Renascence.
STARY OLSA cooperates with many knightly clubs from Belarus and Europe, museums and research centres, masters of early instruments, bands of folk, aulic, sacred and city avital music, as well as with solo performers using old instruments, as well as with fire show theartes.

The band's music makes it possible to restore sounds of many forgotten instruments. STARY OLSA uses for its performances maximal exact (in appearance, technology and materials) copies of old aged Belarusian instruments such as Belarusian bagpipe, lyre, gusli (Baltic psaltery) , svirel, jew's-harp, ocarina, Belarusian trumpet, birch bark trumpet, hudok (Belarusian rebec), tromba marina and drums.

The purpose is to completely reconstruct (whenever possible) musical traditions of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania where Belarus was the main cultural and geopolitical part in the 13th - 18th centuries, and where there was a unique combination of Belarusian folk and aulic music with European musical achievements of that time. In order to revive this cultural peculiarity the band's members mix early Belarusian instruments sound with all-European mediaeval instruments such as lute, rebec, cister, flute, Arabic drum.

Besides its own theatrical concerts, the band performs at mediaeval culture festivals, spear-runnings and folklore festivals.

The STARY OLSA band has recorded eleven albums and one musical project. The band's music is included into seven collections of old melody performers.
