from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Ateik, mergyte
Language: Lithuanian (Lietuvių kalba) 
Ateik, mergyte, 
Pawasarelij', 
Kad dywai żydės
Moczutěs darze. 
Aplink lysates 
Żales rutates, 
O widurije 
Wis lėlijates. 

Asz tada skįsiu
Margą kwėtkatę 
Ir nusiusdįsiu
Sawo bernaczui. 
Ne pati nesziu, 
Ney kitai důsiu, 
Sziauriǔ wėjaczu
Asz nupusdįsiu.

Ateik bernyti, 
Pawasarelij' 
Kad dywai żydės
Tėwo sodelij'. 
Aplink sodatį 
Żali czėpaczei, 
O widurije 
Wis obelates. 

Asz nusiskįsiu 
Dų obolaiczų,
Ir nusiųsdįsiu 
Sawo mergytei.
Ne patsai nesziu, 
Ney kitam důsiu,
Pėtǔ wėjaczu 
Asz nupusdįsiu.
