Across the Tisza River to the Szendrőd puszta
Song
1. Across the Tisza River into the Szendrőd puszta, ; A shepherd boy plays his flute to himself. ; A flute is heard at the window, ; Wake up, dignified young lady. ; ; 2. Baron Szendrőd's window is opened, ; A curly-haired brown girl looks out through it. ; In his sorrow, he sighs to himself: ; – Why did I become Baron Szendrőd's daughter! ; ; 3. The next morning, Baron Szendrőd rode out into the Szendrőd puszta in his lush ; He asked his eldest boy, ; Has he seen Baron Szendrőd's daughter. ; ; 4. – I haven't seen him, Baron, if I may say so, ; I haven't seen my youngest boy either. ; It's been three days since he's been there, ; Surely the young lady is with him too.
