Available translation(s): ENG
Ked si já zazpyévám
na vrch Javoriny,
učuje mna myłý
dołů do doliny.
Ešče si zapyévám
za huménkem stoja,
učuje mna myłý
vrané kone stroja.
Učuje, učuje,
ale ma nepozná.
Moja galánečka
takej noty nemá.
Učuje, učuje,
stoja v okénečku:
Počujte, mamyčko,
moju galánečku.
Počujem, počujem,
ale nevým kerú?
počujte, mamyčko,
rychtárovu céru.
Rychtárova céra
je velice pekná,
snad sa narodiła,
ked fijałka kvetła.

She Loves To Sing
Language: English  after the Moravian (Moravština)
While I’m singing my song
from Maple Hills above,
down there in the valley
I am heard by my love.
I keep singing my song,
standing behind the barn;
I am heard by my love,
saddling his black equine.
He hears me, he hears me,
but can’t tell who I am.
My dearest love’s own tune
does not sound quite the same.
He hears me, he hears me,
he’s near the window pane:
Hear it too, mother dear,
my dearest love’s own tune.
I hear her, I hear her,
but can’t tell who for sure.
Hear her too, mother dear,
the daughter of the squire.
The daughter of the squire
is beautiful indeed,
surely born at the time
when violets bloomed.
