have him lose his head too.
Death !
God, let all those
who are not heretic,
or mean, suffer
like true Christians !
Let none of us utter a single word !
Good, son...
Good, son, good...
Good, son, good...
Daddy !
Where are you ?
- Can you hear me ?
- I hear you, sonny !
I hear you !
Aida !
Aida !
Aida !
This is for you, damned Polacks,
in memory of Ostap.
Help her.
Help her, old fool !
Why don't you do anything ?
She's been suffering for three days !
Sirs, please excuse me.
Let's continue.
Cossacks under the orders
of Ostrenitsiy,
have defeated the royal army
general Nikolai Potosky.
The only way to safeguard
our forces and our honour,
is to surrender,
even though the Cossack leaders led
by Taras Bulba do not wish that.
Enough, mister Kosnievsky.
We must try and gather
the forces of all Poland.
Lord, the danger stalking us is terrible.
Because they are not people.
Pray excuse me.
What is it ?
The princess died.
And the child ?
Alive.
It's a boy.
Sir, a small Bulba
detachment near the river !
They are in the Dniester's rocks.
We'll be there in the morning !
Forward, at a gallop !
They're many.
On horse !
To the river !
Aida !
Aida !
Aida !
To the Dniester !
I have to quit tobacco.
I don't want to end up
in the hands of those damned...
...Polacks !
Ah, old age...
Burn !
In front of everyone, burn !
Where to ? Which way ?
Take a left and then,
jump in the water !
Otherwise, you're finished !
Thank you, father !
Shut up !
Farewell, comrades !
Come back here next spring.
And have fun !
What ?
Surprised, Polacks ?
Wait, the time will come
when you know
what the Russian orthodox faith means.
Close or far, now,
people feel it !
There will be a time soon...
when all will surround...
their king, the Tsar !
And there will be no power in the world
that he won't be able to tame !
Under the light shed by those people,
and their power,
is there anywhere a force
able to break
the Russian soul ?

Before the battle
I would like to say you
What is our comradeship
comradeships existed in another lands, too
but such as in the Russian land
There were not such comradeships
To love
as a Russian soul,
to love not only by mind
but with everything that was given by God
with everything you have inside you
noone can
I know
meanness came to our land
They think only about crops and horse herds
adopt their infidel traditions
Brother doesn't want to speak with brother
Ours sells ours as a soulless creature on a market
And favour of a strange king
and even not a king, but a filthy favour
of a polish magnate,
who beats their faces with his yellow boots
is dearer for them than the comradeship
But even the worst scoundrels
have a grain of Russian feeling
And when it will awake
He, hapless, will fall on the foor
and clutch his head
cursing his mean life
and being ready for torments
to make up his disgrace life
Let them know
what is comradeship in the Russian land
And if we will have to die
Noone of them will die as we will
Noone!
Noone!
Because of their mouse's nature
Fire!

-Hello
-Was your way nice?
-Nice
-Turn around, son
-Turn around
-You are so funny
-Why you wear these priest cassocks?
and long overcoats
-One of us, run, and I'll look how you'll fall,
being tangled in your skirts
-Don't laugh, father
-Heh, what are you
-Why don't
