Van egy gyűrűm, karika
 (Sung text for setting by B. Bartók)
 Matches base text
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Van egy gyűrűm, karika,
Tegnap vette Janika,
Ha még egyet ilyet vesz,
Két karika gyűrűm lesz.
Van egy kendőm, pepita,
Tegnap vette kis Pista,
Ha még egyet ilyet vesz,
Két pepita kendőm lesz.
Van egy hundám, asztrakán,
Tegnap vette a babám,
Ha még egyet ilyet vesz,
Két asztrakán hundám lesz.
Senkim a világon
Hegyek közt lakásom
