by Sándor Petőfi (1823 - 1849)

Száll a felhő, magasan, magasan
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Száll a felhő, magasan, magasan,
Az én rózsám messze van, messze van.
Száll a felhő nyugatra, nyugatra,
A napnak is arra van az utja.

Szállj, felhő, szállj a rózsám fölébe,
Mondd, hogy oly bús a szivem, miként te.
Szállj te is, nap, a rózsám fölébe.
Mondd, hogy úgy ég a szivem, miként te.
