LYRICS
Bre Petrunko, malay mome Vse yodime yobidome Nigde yoro ne naydo me V vashe selo dor tri yora Parvo yoro Petrunkino Petrunitsa yoro vodi Yozdol ide ludo mlado Ne se fana na sredata Nay se fana na tanetso Na tanetso do Petrunka S per iko si kitka roni S nozde si yi ekli kalya |
Hey Petrunka, young girl We've gone all over Nowhere did we find a dance In your village there are three dances The first dance is little Petrunka's Little Petrunka leads the dance Up came a wild fellow He doesn't go to the middle But he joins at the head At the head by Petrunka He tears her bouquet with his forehead He muddies her slippers with his feet. |
