A lad he entered into the forest,
"Fidlom, fidlom"(Strum, strum) into the forest. (*"Fidlom" is a Polish six stringed instrument)
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
Into the forest, what does he want?
Strum, strum, what does he want?
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
He will chop posts in the forest,
Strum, strum, chop posts.
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
What will he do with the posts?
Strum, strum, what will he do?
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
He will put a little garden in place,
Strum, strum, put in place.
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
What will he plant in it?
Strum, strum, plant in it.
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
Onions he will plant in it,
Strum, strum, plant in it.

But then who will weed it,
Strum, strum, weed it?
Oh my heart, Oh my love,

Hey there, let your fidlom alone!
What does he give them for the day?
Strum, strum, for the day?

One Dreier (1/2 cent) for the day,
Strum, strum, for the day.
Oh my heart, Oh my love,
