Lyrics - Hungarian
(Hungarian folk song)
Eltörött a hegedűm, nem akar szólani,
Rózsi, Rózsi mi bajod? Mért nem akarsz szólni.
A hegedűm majd megreparálom,
Szólalj meg hát, rubintos virágom.
Hozok mosdóvizet is gyöngypatak vizéből,
Ellopom a színét is rózsa levelétől.
Te leszel a legszebb a világon,
Szólalj meg hát, rubintos virágom.
English Translation – The violin is broken
My violin is broken, he doesn’t want to speak,
Rózsi, Rózsi what’s wrong with you? Why don’t you want to speak.
I’ll fix my violin,
Speak up, my ruby flower.
I also bring wash water from the water of a pearl stream,
I also steal the color from the rose leaf.
You will be the most beautiful in the world,
Speak up, my ruby flower.
