Jaj ke szosztar mánge
(Oh what, mother)

Romane lullaby (Hungary)

Jaj ke szosztar mánge, mama
Muro terno trájo
Jaj ke mama sej
Ke te naj, mama, andre
Khancsi aba ke boldogságo?

Jaj aso taj gingyino
Talpig hervadino
Jaj ke mama sej
Ke te naj mange misto
Dukhal aba ke muro jilo

Ke dukhal muro jilo
Sza vas o családo
Jaj ke mama sej
Ke muszaj hi te merau
Ande luma ke ande bari
❧
Oh what, mother
Is my young life for
Oh dear mother
If I don't, mother
Have any happiness?

I'm just standing
Fading away
Oh dear mother
So unhappy
My heart full of pain

My heart full of pain
For the children
Oh dear mother
I must die
In this wide world
