by František Ladislav Čelakovský (1798 - 1825)

Kdyby všecky slzičky
Language: Czech (Čeština) 
Kdyby všecky slzičky
pohromadě byly,
co jsou milý pro tebe
oči moje lily:
věru by se louky naše
všecky zatopily.

Ach kdyby to vzdychání
pohromadě bylo
co mé srdce pro tebe
milá vypustilo:
věru na věži by naši
zvony rozzvonilo.
