K dyž gsem šla gedenkrát přes hágeček.
Through the green grove my footsteps stray;
Alas! they stray:
I met a sportsman on the way.
The sun shines out in warmth above;
Ah! warm above:
My heart it blossoms forth in love.[1]
And there we sit till eve draws near;
Ah! eve draws near—
The sportsman shoots a wandering deer.
It is no deer—it is a doe;
Alas! a doe—
O maiden! thou hast planted woe.
- ↑ Tenkrát mé srdéčko láskau kwetlo—Then my heart flowered in love (amore florebat).
