from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Obrázek milého
Language: Moravian (Moravština) 
Our translations:  ENG
Šla děvečka do haječka,
do zeleneho,
Potkała tam malerečka
černookeho.

Malerečku černooky,
pěkně tě prosim,
vymaluj mi obrazeček,
co v srdci nosim.

Nemaluj mi, malerečku,
svateho Jana,
vymaluj mi, malerečku,
meho galana.
