In Javorníky, where the Kátlina brook flows through and lynxes wander through foggy pine groves
A monster serpent has nested once in a settlement spreading chagrin and perdition
When the flockmaster began to count his sheep in the morning
Each week there was one sheep less
So once on a bright June night he lurked hidden behind the pinfold, with a pipe to kill time
Not long after midnight the abomination has crawled out of the hole spreading its jaws quickly
Just then the flockmaster proceeded to beat briskly with a huge spade
Battering and banging in a frenzy until he chopped off the nob of the creature
Therefore, to this day the settlement bears the flockmaster's name Hadoše, where the beast was slain in olden days
