3 lidové tance české — Lyrics
1. Kocourek
1. Náš kocourek zlomil nohu,
nepřišel nám tejden domů.
Jakej byl? Strakatej,
měl vocásek chlupatej!
2. Náš kocourek není doma,
von zas chodí za pannama.
Jakej byl? Chlupatej,
má vocásek uťatej!
2. Taliján
1. Puč mi, ženo, motovidlo, puč mi, ženo, motáček,
já se budu učit motat, ty se budeš votáčet.
Rf.: A já ráda Talijána, a já ráda tancuju.
Pojď, Honzíčku, na břitvičku, pojď, Honzíčku, na břitvu!
Já jsem malá, ty si velkej, já se k tobě nešiknu.
2. Koupil jsem si v Praze břitvu, nechtěla mi fousy brát,
namluvil jsem si tam děvče, nechtělo mne milovat.

About 3 lidové tance české
This collection presents three traditional Czech folk dances arranged for SATB choir. The Czech language lyrics are secular in nature, offering glimpses into everyday life and playful interactions. The first piece, Kocourek, tells a charming story of a cat who has broken its leg and stayed away from home, humorously describing its appearance. The second, Taliján, includes a section about a woman willing to lend a spindle, followed by a refrain that speaks of dancing with an Italian. The third piece, Husar, has lyrics about a hussar preparing his horse for a march and going out to the field. These arrangements capture the spirit of Czech folk traditions, making them ideal for choirs looking to explore regional European choral music.
