Before you login at the login screen simply look at the bottom of your screen. At the left bottom corner it should display languages. Just pick there the language you want and login - done.

Thx, but I have only English there.

Please see this guide, and especially notice the part about drag & dropping the alternative languages in the "Language & Text" dialog, as this isn't really obvious :p :
