Holub na javoře

Language: Moravian (Moravština)

Our translations: DUT ENG ITA

Letěl holúbek na pole,
aby nazobal své vole.
Jak své volátko nazobal,
pod jaborečkem posedal.

Pod jaborečkem má milá
zelený šátek vyšívá.
Vyšívá na něm vineček,
že ju opustil syneček.

Vyšívá na něm z růže květ,
že ju opustil celý svět,
vyšívá na něm vineček,
že ju opustil syneček.

Duif onder de esdoorn

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the Moravian (Moravština)

Er vloog een duifje
naar bruine het veld
om zijn krop te vullen
onder de esdoorn

Onder de esdoorn borduurt mijn allerliefste
een groen sjaaltje.
Ze borduurt er een kransje op,
omdat haar vriendje haar verlaten heeft.

Ze borduurt er bloesem op,
omdat de hele wereld haar verlaten heeft
Ze borduurt er een kransje op
omdat haar vriendje haar verlaten heeft
Ze borduurt er bloesem op,
omdat de hele wereld haar verlaten heeft.
