"Hand me my slender rifle, oh girl, so that I can be on my way, o that I may go abroad." "Why do you go, young man, through the Vardar River, turgid and bloody?" "Through the Shar Mountain, full of shepherds?" "I shall pass through it playing the kaval." "Through the Karaorman, full of highwaymen? "I shall pass through it shooting my rifle." |
