Mé srdce často v bolesti
 (Sung text for setting by A. Dvořák)
 Matches original text
Language: Czech (Čeština) 
Our translations:  ENG ENG
Mé srdce často v neštěstí
Se teskně zadumá:
„Ó že ta láska bolestí
A tolik trnů má?

Ta láska přejde jako sen,
Tak krásná, spanilá
A za kratinko upne jen
Se na ní mohyla!

A na mohylu kámen dán,
Nad nímž tam lípa bdí;
A na kameni nápis psán:
Zde srdce puklé spí!...”
