Common lyrics of Na kamenečku sedela with an English translation

Na kamenečku sedela,
She was sitting on a stone

zlatisté vlásky česala.
combing pretty locks of gold.

Oj, moje vlásky zlatisté,
O, my golden locks of hair,

slúžili ste mi v panenstve.
you made me a virgin fair.

A teraz mi už nechcete,
Now, you won’t serve anymore

pod bielu šatku pôjdete.
my white scarf will be your home.

Na kamenečku sedela,
She was sitting on a stone,

zlatisté vlásky česala.
combing pretty locks of gold.
