Na holi, na holi

Na tej ši ročine

S višku do doliny
Budeme sa vodit'.

Havasi legelőn
Language: Hungarian (Magyar)  after the Slovak (Slovenčina) 
Havasi legelőn,
Virágos nagy mezőn
Olyan jót aludtam,
Az ágyban sem jobban.

Boglyában a széna,
Nincsen több dolgunk ma,
Gyerünk le, gyerünk le
A hegyről a völgybe.
