I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me: «Hold on»
Her father was the leading man
Said: «You’re not welcome on our land»
And then as a foe
He told me to goHe took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her: «Leave me»
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl
She means all the world
Oh, I want my qypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man
That he’ll understand
