Ked gazdovi upeleší sa v chyži nezdoba zmok Lyrics

Ked v kuríne černá slépka znese vajce Gazda dokád domáceho ochrancu sce, mosí ho po devat dní pod pazuchu nosit Neumývat sa, nespat, od kostela sa držat dál Ak dodrží mlčaní, vyláhne sa rarášek Ten zakád kŕmený je v náležitej opatere Dohlédne na statek i dukáty do kapsy privolá Však na pameci treba mat, že stvora to je čertovská Kerá za služby duše sa domáha A ked vyvolá kdosi jej hnev, po nocách ludzí hrdúsi Po zetmení vlecí pres komín jako ohnivá retaz Jedzine pretažkou úlohou móže sa gazda potvory zbavit Vtedy od zlosci rozleje sa na kolomaž Či do červenej šatky zmoka ovinút A furmanovi dat na voz, nák ho cestú hodzí do jarku.


When a Bugger Kobold settles down in the Farmer's Household (English Translation)

When a black hen lays an egg in the henhouse The farmer, if he wishes for a guardian of his household, has to carry the egg in his armpit for nine days Don't bathe, don't sleep, stay away from the church If he keeps silent, the kobold will hatch As long as he is fed in befitting care He will watch over the homestead and call in ducats into the pouch But one has to keep in mind, it is a devilish creature That requests souls for its service And if someone arouses its wrath, it strangles men in their sleep After the nightfall, it storms in through the chimney as a fiery chain Only through a most burdensome task might the farmer get rid of the beast Then it melts into axle grease in anger Or he can wrap the kobold in a red kerchief, put it on a carriage, so the waggoner can throw it down the ditch on his way.
