Момак моли мајку
Language: Serbian (Српски)
Моја мајко, ожени ме млада, Док ме није обузела брада, Обузела брада и бркови; Пак ће онда да реку ђевојке, Кад ме својој мајци ускажују: "Нуто, мајко, из међе међеда;" Или: "Нуто из купуса зеца."

Der Knabe an die Mutter
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Serbian (Српски)
Jung vermähle mich, o [meine]1 Mutter! Eh der Bart ganz das Gesicht mir einfaßt, Und sich Kinn und Schnurrbart mir verschlingen. Möchten sonst die Mädchen von mir sagen, Wenn sie einmal mich den Müttern zeigen: ["Mutter, sieh' aus dem Gesträuch den Bären!" Oder: "Sieh' den Hasen aus dem Kraute!"]2
