from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Hej, kolo Těšina
 (Sung text for setting by P. Eben)
 Matches base text
Language: Moravian (Moravština) 
Hej, kolo Těšina ja tam cestečka
a na te cestečce stoji děvečka.
Stoji, stoji ustrojena,
jakby byla malovana
jako dvorečka, hej, jako dvorečka.

A jo se ji pytol, či by mě chtěla,
a ona mi na to runčky podava.
Ojcově se dověděli,
zaraz po mě přijechali,
bylo věseli, hej, bylo věseli.

Dostal zěch ti potom kabot na svěnta,
co něboščikl stařik pos v něm tělenta.
Kdyby byli stařik žili,
to by byli v nim chodili,
jo by neměl nic, hej, jo by neměl nic!
