Do you see what has happened, Mother?
Why did you ever birth me into the world?
You should have thrown me instead
Into the swirling waters of the Tisza River.
The Tisza's waters should have swept me
Into the icy Danube.
Oh, if only I had never been born at all!
Then I could never have been someone's
Sweetheart that they grew tired of.
There are no paired-up stars in the sky anymore
All of them have fallen down to the Earth.
I no longer have a faithful lover.
He has left me forever.
If he's left me, I won't live in sorrow.
Even now that I'm in my grave
Even now that I'm under the Earth
Even now, only he is on my mind.
