Behind the gardens of Gesztete

1. Behind the gardens of Gesztete, ; A beautiful girl was guarding a peacock. ; There came strangers, ; Three wandering young men. ; ; 2. Do you hear, beautiful little girl, ; |: Come with us to the fun, :| ; To fair revelry. ; ; 3. If I go with them in the spring, ; Where shall I put the peacock? ; – Leave the peacock in the stream, ; Now you can't trust it to anyone else. ; ; 4. They reached the green forest, ; They lay down on the grass, ; The young man fell into a deep sleep, ; There he fell into a deep sleep. ; ; 5. He woke up around midnight, ; To the sound of the cuckoo bird. ; Oh, my God, strike them, ; Those who led me here. ; Here they left her in great solitude,  - to the melody of line 3 ; To the prey of terrible beasts.             - to the melody of line 4 ; ; 6. Girls, girls, beautiful little girls, ; My fate is an example, ; Do not believe the young man, ; The one with an ever deceitful heart.
