Teka upużelij'

Language: Lithuanian (Lietuvių kalba)

Teka upużelij'
Czystas wandenelis.
  Paůpelij 
  Paszaltinij', 
Ko liudi, mergyte? 

Kur asz ne liudėsiu? 
Kur asz ne raudosiu? 
  Nėko to
  Nę matau, 
Ką szirdij' turėjau. 

Naktij' be mėgelio 
Żoduką kalbėjau: 
  Amżinay 
  Nėkaday 
Nů jo atsikreiptis. 

Weliczau atskirtą 
Kuną nū duszelės, 
  O ne kai 
  Asz tiktay 
Nů jauno bernelio.
