| Jel pasteidzies, vedēj, brauc ātrāk |
| Brauc ātrāk jo trauc mana sirds |
| Mani gaida tur meitene mīļā |
| No kuras es biju tik ilgi šķirts |
| |
| Ir rudens un ārā līst lietus |
| Līst lietus un skumst mana sirds |
| Manas dzimtenes meitenes logā |
| Pamirdz uguns un kāzas tur svin |
| |
| Jel nesteidzies, vedēj, brauc lēnām |
| Brauc lēnāk jo nav man kur steigt |
| Mani pievīla meitene mīļā |
| No viņas biju ilgi es sķirts |
| |
| Tu nāksi kad ārā būs ziema |
| Būs ziema un sals tava sirds |
| Bet tad atbilde būs tikai viena |
| Mana sirds Tevi tad vairs nepazīs |

| Driver |
| |
| Hey, hurry up, driver, go faster |
| Go faster, because my heart's a-fretting |
| My sweetheart's waiting there for me |
| From whom I've so long been parted |
| |
| Autumn has come, it's raining outside |
| The rain falls and my heart grieves |
| In the window of my homeland sweetheart |
| The lights glow as a wedding is celebrated there |
| |
| Hey, don't hurry, driver, go slow |
| Go slowly, there's no place to rush to |
| My sweetheart dear betrayed me |
| So long was I parted from her |
| |
| You'll come when it's Winter outside |
| When it's Winter and your heart is freezing |
| But the answer then will only be one |
| To my heart you will be but a stranger. |
