Hoře
Language: Moravian (Moravština)
Zrálo jabko, zrálo, jak dozrálo, spadlo, že moje srdenko, do žalosti vpadlo. Ne tak do žalosti, do velkého hoře, že moje srdenko, nožem krájať može. Ne tak nožem krájať ale pilú řezať, dyť tebe nemožu, můj synečku, dostať.

Available translation(s): ENG
Als der Apfel reif war, fiel er ab vom Aste, Daß mein armes Herzchen tiefes Weh erfaßte. Ach, nicht tiefes Weh nur, unerhörtes Leiden, Grad als wenn ins Herz mir scharfe Messer schneiden. Nicht wie Messerschneiden, nein, wie rauhe Sägen; Denn mein Herzgeliebter geht auf fremden Wegen.
From the Simrock edition of Dvořák's op. 38.
