Veša, veša (In the Woods)
Original author unknown, this recording by Gypsy Boys
Veša, veša churde veša,
U maškaral o cinteris.
O la veša, čingerava,
U mra phura da parunava.
Woods, woods, a small forest,
In the middle is a cemetery
Here I’ll cut down the trees,
and make a grave for my grandmother.
All vocals and instrumentals: Michal Dani, Rene Frater, Martin Jano, Alex Rybar
