Несе Галя воду [Nese Halya vodu] [English translation]

Halya carries water,

Shoulder pole bends,

And Ivanko trails her

Like a periwinkle.

"Halya, my Halya,

Let me drink my fill of water,

You're so pretty -

Let me look at you"

"The water is in the well,

Go and drink your fill,

I will be in the garden -

Come and look"

"I came to the garden,

The cuckoo was calling,

And you, Halya,

Didn't respect me"

"Trail, periwinkle -

I will water you,

Come back, Ivanko,

I will respect you"

Halya carries water,

Shoulder pole bends,

And Ivanko trails her

Like a periwinkle.
