Translation from Volkslieder (Folksongs)
Ej, a ked' mňa zabiju
Language: Slovak (Slovenčina)
Ej, a ked' mňa zabiju, dobre mňa schovajte, Ej, na bystrický cinter, tam mňa pochovajte. Ej, na bystrický cinter, nedelako dverí, Pojde mojá milá, srce ju zabolí. ,,Tu ležia nožicky, čo k nám chodievali; Tu ležia ručičky, co mna obímali."

Andante assai, parlando
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) after the Slovak (Slovenčina)
Hej, hogyha majd elesem, Zólyomba vigyetek, Hej, gyászos temetõbe, Oda temessetek. Hej, gyászos temetõbe, A kapuhoz közel, Ha kijön a rózsám, Hadd sirasson majd el. ,,Ki hozzánk annyit járt, Most a föld takarja; Ki annyiszor ölelt, Itt porlad a karja."
