Trugnala Rumjana za voda studena (lele)
Vse sutrin rano, po ladovina (lele)

Na srestra i ide edno ludo mlado (lele)
Ta na Rumjana, tihom govori (lele)

Ja kazi Rumjano, kakvo da ti storja (lele)
Kitki do ti zema, drugi ste naberes (lele)

Stomni da ti scupja, drugi ste si kupis (lele)
Hem pohubavi, hem posareni (lele)

Ja tagaz, Rumjano, daj da te celuna (lele)
Ce celuvkata se spari ne kupuva (lele)

Ce celuvkata e mehlem na surceto (lele)
Mahlem na surceto, balsam na dustata (lele)

English translation:

Rumjana went out to fetch cool water
In the morning coolness
In the evening moonlight
She was met by a bold young fellow
Who spoke to her softly
Saying, Tell me Rumjano,
What should I do to you?
If I steal your flowers, you'll just pick others
If I break your jugs, you'll just buy new ones,
Prettier and more brightly colored
So Rumjano, let me kiss you,
For a kiss is beyond price
A kiss is salve for the heart, and balm for the soul
