Odam se neodam by Saga Krasy is a Slovak folk song. Here are the English lyrics:
Don’t you cut down the green oak!
I had, I had, a merchant for my lips.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
When there are young lads, wandering our yard.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
I will marry, I will not, I can help at home.
I will not let my mother work too hard.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
My boyfriend is getting married, I will let him do it.
He can go wherever he wants, I’m not getting married.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
A merchant for my lips and an artist for the cheeks.
Why shouldn’t I, my God, keep myself above.
