Nedbám já včil o nic
Language: Czech (Čeština)
Nedbám já včil o nic, než aby večer byl, abych si já s Zefkú celú noc pobyl. Povšeckým kohútom hlavy bych zutínal, to aby žádný z nich svítání nevolal. Gdyby chtěla noc na věky trvati, abych já na věky mohl milovati.

Nichts mehr, nichts mehr denk ich
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Czech (Čeština)
Nichts mehr, nichts mehr denk ich, wünsch nur den Abend her, Daß ich schon bei Seffka die Nacht lang wach wär'. Allen den Hähnen rings möcht ich den Kopf abhaun. Rufen das Morgenrot, und ich wills nicht mehr schaun! Ewig Nacht fortan, ewig geblieben, Denn alle Ewigkeit will ich nichts als lieben.
