Culture: Old Czech song

Does anyone know this song my grandmother use to sing to my mother? Her family was from the Pilsen area. This is the phonetic version as I translate it from my mothers singing.

Sekita motika descha bollek
Poitsa Semnoe Hulka vollet
Ya sumti povidal nevda vessa
Sesca bochka Pala Mesa

Her understanding of its meaning was this:

“Axe, Hoe rolling pin
Roll (dance) me around the floor
I told you you were to frail
and would break to pieces”

Anyone have knowledge of this song or a better translation, either english to czech or czech to english?

Thank You
