Vy vroucí písně spějte Tou nocí v mživou dál; Všem pozdravení dejte, Jež tíží tichý žal! Tam spějte přes padoly, Kde moje milka dlí, A rcete, co mne bolí, A proč letíte k ní! A zapláče-li s vámi, Povězte mi to zas: Jinak ať dolinami Zavane vítr vás!

You heartfelt songs, head on through this damp night and pass on greetings to all who are burdened by silent pain. Head on across the valley where my darling is waiting and tell her what is hurting me and why you are rushing to her And if she bursts into tears with you let me know about it or else be off to the lowlands blown off by the wind.
