from Rusalka by Antonín Dvorák
Sung in its original Czechoslovakian by Jo and Tsakane. Rusalka is a water
nymph who falls in love with a handsome prince, and sings to her friend the Moon
of her secret yearning to become human. "Rusalka" literally means "water;" in
Dvorák's folkloric imagery, Rusalka is actually inviting the Prince to come and
swim within her.
Mesiku na nebi hlubokem
Svetlo tvé daleko vidi,
Po svete bloudis sirokém,
Divas se v pribytky lidi.
Mesicku, postuj chvili
Reckni mi, kde je muj mily
Rekni mu, stribmy mesicku,
Me ze jej objima rame,
Aby si alespon chvilicku
Vzpomenul ve sneni na mne
Zasvet mu do daleka
Rekni mu, rekni m kdo tu nan ceka!
mneli duse lidska sni
At'se tou vzpominkou vzbudi!
Mesicku, nezhasni, nezhasni!
