Našiel som si v šírom poli

Slová: Milan Rastislav Štefánik

Našiel som si v šírom poli,

Našiel som si v šírom poli

fialôčku k mojej vôli,

fialôčku, frajerôčku k mojej vôli.

Frajerôčka moja milá

rada by sa vydávala, rada by sa vydávala.

Nevydávaj sa ty, milá,

buď len rok, dva trpezlivá,

však ti líčko neodkvetá

a ja musím, a ja musím, preč do sveta.

I Found Out in the Fields

Words: Milan Rastislav Štefánik

I found out in the fields,

I found out in the fields,

a violet that would yield,

a violet, a sweetheart that would yield.

My sweetheart bright and merry

wished to marry, wished to marry.

Do not marry, no, my dear,

just be patient one, two years.

for your cheek won't lose its glow

and away to the world I have to go.
