I bought a scarf, a silk scarf, it cost a hundred forints.

1. I bought a scarf, a silk scarf, it cost a hundred forints, ; My rose is withering in the barracks, ; I'm selling my hundred-forint silk scarf, ; So that I can buy back my soldier lover. ; ; 2. A little singing lark landed on our house. ; Don't make my heart sad, Mariska. ; Because if you make my orphaned heart sad too much, ; You'll soon find me dead. ; ; 3. Along the Tisza, along the Danube, at the foot of a wild rose tree, ; Two lovers are playing in each other's laps. ; One is looking at the white foam in the Tisza, ; The other is looking at the shining star up in the sky.
