from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Elment a madárka
 (Sung text for setting by B. Bartók)
 Matches base text
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Elment a madárka,
Üres a kalicka,
Azt üzente vissza,
Visszajő tavaszra.
Visszajő tavaszra,
Rózsavirágzáskor;
Ha akkorra nem jő,
Búzaaratáskor.
Ha akkorra sem jő,
Szilva-aszaláskor,
Ha még akkor sem jő,
Tudom, többet nem jő.

Composition:

    Set to music by Béla Bartók (1881 - 1945), "Elment a madárka", Sz. 103 no. 24, BB. 111 no. 24 (1935) [ children's chorus and women's chorus ], from 27 két- és háromszólamú kórusmű gyermek- és nőikarra (27 Two- and Three-part Choruses, for children and female voices), no. 24
