from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Ej, mám já koňa faku
Language: Slovak (Slovenčina) 
Our translations:  ENG
Ej, mám já koňa faku, co ma dobre nosí,
po horách, po dolách, po studenej rosi.

Ej, mal som síkorenku, zlámala si nožku:
podaj mi, má milá, čerstvej vody trošku.

Ej, mal som frajerečku ako iskerečku:
ale ma sklamala, strela v jej' srdečku!
