Common lyrics of Bodaj by vás čerti vzali with an English translation

Ženy – Women

Bodaj by vás, vy mládenci čerti vzali,
bɔdaj bi vaːs vi mlaːɟɛntsi tʃɛrci vzali
So help me God, to hell with you, boys!

keď ste vy ma na ten tanec nepozvali.
kɛc scɛ vi ma na tɛn taɲɛts ɲɛpɔzvali
when you didn’t care to invite me for the dance

Ja by bola tancovala,
ja bi bɔla tantsɔvala
I would have danced

aj na cimbal niečo dala,
aj na tsimbal ɲjɛtʃɔ dala
even spare a penny for the cymbal

aj vás všetkých pobozkala,
aj vaːs fʃɛtkiːx pɔbɔskala
and give all of you a kiss.

bodaj by vás čerti vzali, hej!
bɔdaj bi vaːs tʃɛrci vzali ɦɛj
To hell with you, hey!

Bodajže vás, dievky, čerti vzali,
bɔdajʒɛ vaːz ɟjɛuki tʃɛrci vzali
So help me God, to hell with you, girls,

keď ste vy mi moju fajku vzali.
kɛc scɛ vi mi mɔju fajku vzali
when you took my pipe.

Veď tá fajka celkom nová bola,
vɛc taː fajka tsɛlkɔm nɔvaː bɔla
That pipe was brand-new,

štyri groše ona hodná bola.
ʃtiri ɡrɔʃɛ ɔna ɦɔdnaː bɔla
worth four crowns!
