Karafiát
Language: Moravian (Moravština)
Available translation(s): ENG
Před vaší je zahrádečka, zamykása,
a v ní roste karafiát, netrhása.
Ja ho mosím utrhnút,
dybych tam mjéł zahynút,
nemožem ťa, duša moja,
zapomenút.

The Carnation
Language: English  after the Moravian (Moravština)
Your house has a tiny garden, the gate is locked,
and the carnation growing there may not be plucked.
But I must, I must pluck it,
even though I’ll die for that,
I cannot forget you, my love,
I can’t forget.
