The Tisza River is turbulent

Song

1. The Tisza is turbulent, ; It doesn't want to calm down. ; This famous Imre Bogár ; Wants to go by. ; ; 2. Wants to go by, ; Wants to steal a colt. ; At the Kecskemét fair ; He wants to sell it. ; ; 3. They killed a young man ; For his sixty forints. ; They threw him into the Tisza ; For a red pejlova. ; ; 4. The Tisza didn't take him in, ; He threw him on the bank. ; A young fisherman went there, ; He took him in his net. ; ; 5. There goes his mother, ; She cries, but she doesn't hear him. ; Her little boots with copper spurs ; Are frozen to her feet. ; ; 6. There goes her baby, ; She cries, and she hears him. ; Get up, get up, my sweet rose, ; Fall on my shoulder. ; ; 7. Will you make me cry ; In front of three young men? ; I will make you cry, I will make you cry ; In front of the whole world.
