Magdalenca vpije,

kna vjema čije,

kna vjema čije,

uej, uej.

 

Tam gori na gori,

kna more več doli,

kna more več doli,

uej, uej.

 

Kab adn pršu,

deb mene rješu,

deb mene rješu,

uej, uej.

 

Jz bmu tjela dat,

adn prstan zlat,

adn prstan zlat,

uej, uej.

 

Tolminska ljudska pesem,

MAGDALENCA

 

Magdalenca calls,

we don’t know where she is,

we don’t know where she is,

woe, woe.

 

From there on the mountain,

she can not descend,

she can not descend,

woe, woe.

 

If someone would come,

would come to save me,

would come to save me,

woe,woe.

 

I would like to give him,

give him a golden ring,

give him a golden ring,

woe, woe.
