From Prague came a pair of high heeled shoes
With a kiss or two came the high heeled shoes
From the ancient city of Prague

From Oslo, over the sound?
From Oslo, there came a collar of fur
How it pleases her, the little collar of fur
From Oslo, over the sound

From the wealth of Amsterdam?
From Amsterdam, he got her a hat
She looked sweet in that
In the little Dutch hat
From the wealth of Amsterdam

From the south, from Bucharest?
From Bucharest, he sent her a shirt
Embroidered and pert, that Romanian shirt
From the south, from Bucharest

What was sent to the soldier's wife
From the far-off Russian land?
From Russia, there came just a widow's veil
For her dead to bewail in her widow's veil
From the far-off Russian land
From the far-off Russian land
