I saw a migrant girl along Tuna (River)There is a rose bouquet in her hands, the yearning is in her bosomTell me tell me the migrant girl, do you have mother?Neither mother nor father I have, I'm orphaned
You are an orphan I am a poor, I shall take you (marry you)I shall take and surround you abroad
Are there any news from the wires of telegraph?There is neither news nor a letter, I 'm orphanedTell me the truth the migrant girl, is there no news?There is neither someone coming nor going, I'm orphaned
