Aj! Kterak trojhranec můj přerozkošně zvoní,
jak cigána píseň, když se k smrti kloní!

Oh, come suona magnifico il mio triangolo!

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the Czech (Čeština)

Oh, come suona magnifico il mio triangolo!
Come un canto zingaresco, quando ci si incammina verso la morte!
Quando suoni di triangolo mi accompagnano verso la morte,
è finita  per sempre con canti e con danze!
Canti, girotondi, amore, addio per sempre!
