Available translation(s): ENG
Hrdelenko moje
ej jako tá hrkávka,
nemože dovołat
svéj vůle šohajka.
Prvéj dovołało,
ej co len zazpívało,
a včiléj nemože,
co by zapłakało.

Once Upon a Time and Now
Language: English  after the Moravian (Moravština)
My voice is now so frail
it sounds just like a rattle,
and cannot bring my love
to me just when I will.
It used to bring him here
when it sang before so shrill,
but now it can no more,
however it may wail.
