Над Дунаем [Nad Dunayem] [English translation]

Over the Danube I was standing

Over the Danube I was standing

I was brushing my light brown hair

The light brown hair I was brushing

The light brown hair I was brushing

I was throwing the hair into the peaceful Danube

Float my plaits, float

Float my plaits, float

Don't take much moisture

Don't take much moisture

Don't take much moisture

Don't make my mom cry.

For the only one1she has,

For the only me she has,

Yet she gives away even me

Over the Danube I was standing

Over the Danube I was standing

I was brushing my light brown hair
