Vy vroucí písně spějte/You ardent songs, go forth.	—	—	—
V té sladké moci očí tvých/In that sweet power of your eyes.	—	—	—
V tak mnohém srdci mrtvo jest/So many hearts are as though dead.	—	—	—
Ó duše drahá jedinká/Oh dear soul, the only one.	—	—	—
Ó byl to krásný zlatý sen/It was a lovely, golden dream.	—	—	—
Já vím, že v sladké naději/I know that in my sweet hope.	—	—	—
Ó zlatá růže spanilá/Oh golden rose so beautiful.	—	—	—
Ó naší lásce nekvete/Oh, for us love does not bloom.	—	—	—
Kol domu se teď potácím/Round the house I stagger now.	—	—	—
Mne často týrá pochyba/This doubt now often torments me.	—	—	—
Mé srdce často v bolesti/Often my heart broods in anguish.	—	—	—
Zde hledím na ten drahý list/Here I look at this dear letter.	—	—	—
Na horách ticho/In the hills silence.	—	—	—
Zde v lese u potoka/In forest here by a brook.	—	—	—
Mou celou duší zádumně/Through my whole soul wistfully.	—	—	—
Tam stojí stará skála/There stands an ancient rock.	—	—	—
Nad krajem vévodí lehký spánek/Over the countryside reigns a light sleep.	—	—	—
Ty se ptáš, proč moje zpěvy bouří/You may ask why all my somber songs.	—	—	—
