Szőlőhegyen keresztül
Men a leány öccsöstül,
Fehér nyaka gyöngyöstül,
Kezkenője csipkéstül.
Hej, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, din, din, don
Hej, Jancsika, Jancsika,
Mér nem nyőtté nagyobbra?
Nyőtté vóna nagyobbra,
Letté vóna katona.
Hej, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, ti-ni, din, din, don.

Aren’t you growing taller?
You should have become bigger
So you could become a soldier.
