 The Czech lyrics of Andulko šafářova as a sing-along video:


English translation of the lyrics (by Zaba, with one little adjustment):

Andulka, the bailiff's daughter,
your geese are not at home.
The geese are in the barley field,
Andulka, go and drive them out,
drive them out of the barney field
before the day comes.

I would drive them out
if I was not afraid.
My mother is a light sleeper,
she knows every movement of me.
I'm not allowed to leave my room
before the day comes.

 Unfortunately, there are lots of problems with this entry. That's why it would be really helpful to have label scans here. I've fixed it as far as I could based on the entry in DAHR, but DAHR, to make things worse, only lists the B side:
B Side


BTW, Pryorova (not Pryorcva) Kapela is Czech for Arthur Pryor's Band. Schaffers Annchen is not the composer, but an alternate title for the piece. That title, in turn, if it looks like this on the label, is a mangled version of Schäfers Ännchen (source). In Richard Spottswood, Ethnic Music on Records, vol. 2, p. 657, I've seen the translation "Annie, The Caretaker's Daughter."

Josef Heřman Zefi or Zeffi-Heřman (1872-1955, his birth name was Josef Heřman) was a Czech comic actor. (bio, in Czech) He retired from the stage in 1914, and all his recordings seem to have been made earlier. But he also was a very prolific composer, writing more than 3,000 pieces. So the track on the A Side may actually have been written by him and performed by the Kapela.
