Lyrics - Hungarian
(Folk song from Hungary)
Madárka, madárka,
csácsogó madárka,
vidd el a levelem, vidd el a levelem,
szép magyar hazámba.
Ha kérdi, ki küldte,
mondjad, hogy az küldte,
kinek bánatában, szíve fájdalmában
meghasad a szíve
English Translation – Bird, bird
Bird, bird,
chirping bird,
take my letter, take my letter,
to my beautiful Hungarian homeland.
If he asks who sent it,
tell him that it was sent by the one
whose heart is torn apart by grief,
by the pain of his heart
