Molih ta, majčo, i molih, ne možih da ta izmolja	I begged you, mother, I begged you, but I could not persuade you
ne možih da ta izmolja da ma ni glaviš ni ženiš	but I could not persuade you not to betroth me or marry me off
da ma ni glaviš ni ženiš barem juj saja godina	not to betroth me or marry me off this year,
barem juj saja godina juj sova leto, proleto	this year, this summer, this spring,
juj sova leto, proleto dorde ni dojde pozime	this summer, this spring, not until autumn comes,
dorde ni dojde pozime da sa sŭbirat momine	not until autumn comes, and the girls gather,
da sa sŭbirat momine momine na poprelkine	and the girls gather, at their spinning parties
leftera da si pohodja gizdilo da si ponosja.	so I could go about unmarried and wear my fancy clothes.
A ti ma, majčo, joglavi joglavi, jošte oženi.	But, mother, you betrothed me, betrothed me and married me off.
