Letěl holúbek na pole, aby nazobal své vole. Jak své volátko nazobal, pod jaborečkem posedal. Pod jaborečkem má milá zelený šátek vyšívá. Vyšívá na něm vineček, že ju opustil syneček. Vyšívá na něm z růže květ, že ju opustil celý svět, vyšívá na něm vineček, že ju opustil syneček.

Volò un piccione sulla campagna finchè trovò semi per la sua piccola gola. Quando poi la golettina fu piena, volò su un ramo d'acero. Vicino all'acero siede il mio tesorino e ricama un fazzolettino verde. E ci ricama una coroncina, perchè il suo tesoro l'ha lasciata. Ci ricama anche una rosellina rossa, per lei tutto l'amore è morto, ci ricama una coroncina, perchè il suo tesoro l'ha lasciata. Ci ricama anche una rosellina rossa, per lei tutto l'amore è morto.
