** Richard Crooks,

Recorded Sydney, Sep 16, 1936
--LYRICS--
English Translation:
Songs my mother taught me,
In the days long vanished;
Seldom from her eyelids
Were the teardrops banished.
Now I teach my children,
Each melodious measure.
Oft the tears are flowing,
Oft they flow from my memory's treasure.
Czech text
Když mne stará matka zpívat, zpívat učívala,
podivno, že často, často slzívala.
A ted' také pláčem snědé líce mučim,
když vigánské děti hrát a zpívat učim!
German text by Adolph Heyduk
Als die alte Mutter mich noch lehrte singen,
tränen in den Wimpern gar so oft ihr hingen.
Jetzt, wo ich die Kleinen selber üb im Sange,
rie-selt's in den Bart oft, rie-selt's oft
von der braunen Wange.
