Glazba/Music & Tekst/Lyrics: Traditional folk song from Međimurje
Arrangement: Dunja Knebl, Danijel Maoduš, Hrvoje Ban, Martin Turšić
Gora, gora, visoka si, a moj dragi, daleko si,
Daleko si med gorama, vene ljubav među nama.
On mi stoji na kamenu, pušku drži na ramenu,
Listak piše na kolenu, pa ga šalje po detelju.
Oj, detelje, drobna ftica, nesi moji dragi lista.
Ako dojdeš belim dankom, deni ji ga u ručico.
Ako dojdeš tamnom nočkom, deni ji ga pod glavico,
Deni ji ga pod glavico, pod pisano vanjkušnico.
Ako si mi ona ista, ti ne primaj mojga lista,
Ako nisi ona ista, ti ne primaj mojga lista.
Her sweetheart is far away in the hills holding a gun in his hands, fighting a war. He is writing a letter and telling the messenger bird to carry it and put it into his sweetheart's hand if it is daytime, and to place it under her pillow, if it is nighttime.
