from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Rada pila, rada jedla
Language: Slovak (Slovenčina) 
Rada pila, rada jedla
Rada tancovala,
Rada tancovala,
Rada tancovala,

Ani si len tú kytličku
Neobranclovala,
Neobranclovala,
Neobranclovala,

Nedala si štri groše
Ako som ja dala,
Ako som ja dala,
Ako som ja dala,

Žeby si ty tancovala,
A ja žeby stála,
A ja žeby stála,
A ja žeby stála.
