Struna naladěna

Struna naladěna,

Take your bow and strike up!

hochu, toč se v kole,

Come and join the round dance, lad!

dnes, snad dnes převysoko,

Be happy today! But what of the morrow?

zejtra, zejtra, zejtra zase dole!

Sad tomorrow – it was ever thus!

Pozejtří u Nilu

Next day on the banks of the Nile,

za posvátným stolem;

At the table of our fathers,

struna již, struna naladěna,

Take your bow and strike up,

hochu, toč, hochu, toč se kolem!

Hasten to the dance and mingle!

Hasten to the dance and mingle!
