Mila majko, šalji me na vodu,jer me moj dragi kraj izvora čeka.
"Hajde kćeri, al' se brzo vrati,uzaludu vremena ne trati!"
Izvoru hita djeva ponosita,bl'jedi je Mjesec zamišljeno gleda.
"Oj, Mjeseče, tako ti mladine,ti obasjavati brda i doline!Daj mi sad reci da l' me dragi želi,da li se mome dolasku veseli?""Oj, djevojko, ti si puna čara,al' tebe dragi kraj izvora vara!"
Dear mother, send me to get waterBecause my darling waits for me by the well.
"Go on, daughter, but come back soon,Don't waste your time in vain!"
A proud maiden hurries to the well,Pale moon looks at her pensively.
"O, Moon, on your youth,You shine over the hills and mountains!Come, tell me now, whether my darling wants me,Is he happy to be meeting up with me?""O, girl, you are full of splendor,But your darling cheats on you by the well."
