I reached one more important goal,
Another chest filled in with gold.
I watch its glitter and extol
My brilliance and wealth untold.

For long I'm second rich to none,
But I just love to multiply
My treasures. Oh, they shine as sun!
I am now on the seventh sky!

I lived a thousand years or more,
So all my fervor came to naught.
But there's one ardor in my core
That burns my heart extremely hot.

You guessed it, it's my love for money,
And there's no force to separate
Me from my sweet, my cute, my honey —
The coins with my cast portrait!
Koschei The Immortal is a usual villain of russian fairytales. There are two most important of his characteristics. First is that his death is at the tip of a needle which is inside an egg, which is inside a duck, which is inside a rabbit, which is inside a chest, which is on top of an oak. And the second is that he's extremely rich and on of his "hobbies" is to marvel at his own treasures.
