Tam stojí stará skalá 
U vchodu údolí,
Tak opuštěná, pustá, 
Až srdce zabolí.

K té staré skálé často 
Zabloudí noha má;
Já vzhůru k ní pozírám 
Vlhkýma zrakoma.

A u té tvrdé skály 
Já dlouhé chvíle dlím,
A všecky své bolesti 
Tu v srdci pouspím...

Až umru, v tuto skálu 
Uložte srdce mé:
Tam na věčnosť se uspí 
To všecko hoře mé!...

Note: in stanza 4, line 1, the website antonin-dvorak.cz shows "v tu skálu" instead of "v tuto skálu". The Bärenreiter edition (2003) of Dvořák's setting follows the Pfleger-Moravský edition.
