Kalinowe dwory
Language: Polish (Polski) 
Kalinowe dwory
jarzen' na jawory.
jarzębiec surowy,
czerwon' do zawory!

Czerwon' jagodulu
ładzie do dziewanny!
Borem nie da rady,
jaworowe panny!

Dziwierz tędy łazi,
łyśnie na spiekory:
ej, kraśnie zagorzewią
kalinowe dwory!

Chanson rouge
Language: French (Français)  after the Polish (Polski) 
Les palais de frêne
aux portes de pourpre,
le sorbier s'incline,
le baies sont bien mûres.

Les baies sont toutes rouges,
les fées toutes blanches,
dans la forêt noire
la belle s'égare.

La sorcière la guette
de ses yeux de flamme.
Ah! rouges sont dans l'aube
les palais de frêne!
