St. Peter's Basilica burned down

Song

1. The Saint Peter's hut burned down, ; Nine shepherd's huts burned down, ; Nine pairs of clothes of nine shepherds, ; The tax collector's frilly undergarment. ; ; 2. The tax collector doesn't have enough money, ; He buys it at the great fair in Eger. ; But the nine poor shepherds ; Even the poor ones themselves are burned down. ; ; 3. A little brown girl avoids the hut, ; She asks where the shepherd's hut is, ; Little brown girl, you search in vain, ; The one who loved you has burned down. ; ; 4. Let them show him his grave, ; Let me plant a red rose on it. ; May it bear roses, not thorns, ; Because he truly loved me.
