Pondělní dítě
Pondělní dítě má hezkou tvář,
úterní zdobí svatozář,
středeční dítě je plné hoře,
čtvrteční popluje v širé moře,
páteční dítě je štědré a plné lásky,
sobotnímu bude samá práce dělat vrásky,
a to narozené v odpočinku den,
je veselé, hodné, švarné jen.
Monday's child
Monday's Child is fair of face.
Tuesday's Child is full of grace.
Wednesday's Child is full of woe.
Thursday's Child has far to go.
Friday's Child is loving and giving.
Saturday's Child works hard for living.
And the child born on the Sabbath Day
is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.
Monday's child starší verze
The child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is blithe and bonny, and good and gay;
Monday's child is fair of face;
Tuesday's child is full of grace;
Wednesday's child is merry and glad;
Thursday's child is sour and sad;
Friday's child is loving and giving;
And Saturday's child must work for its living.
