Most jöttem Erdélyből

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Most jöttem Erdélyből,
Hat lóval, hintóval,
Hat lóval, hintóval,
S egy rongyos szolgával.

Az én szolgám neve:
Húzd el, vond el Gyurka,
Az én szolgám neve:
Húzd el, vond el Gyurka.

,,Csillagom, pajtásom!
Hol vagyon szállásom?"
Csikba van, Ámfalván,
Tompai Zsuzsinál!

Ebédem, vacsorám,
Cifra Boricánál,
Kardom, pár pistolom,
Talpas Pann' asszonnál.
