Gypsy song performed by E karika Djal
Lakere bala, somnakune bala
E daj o dad uchanel
Lakere bala, somnakune bala
E daj o dad uchanel
Soske mange ajsi romni
Somnakune na kamav
Soske mange ajsi romni
Somnakune na kamav.
- Lyrics sent by Elisabeth Therkelsen
Her hair, golden hair,
(Her) mother and father comb it
Her hair, golden hair,
(Her) mother and father comb it
Why* for me such a woman,
I don’t love golden (hair)
Why for me such a woman,
I don’t want golden hair
*or, “For what / to what purpose”
However, in the Youtube clip above they seem to be singing slightly different lyrics, that don’t include the “somnakuno / golden” references: http://www.supermusic.sk/skupina.php?idpiesne=827243
Lakere bala, lakere bala
E daj o dad uchanel
Lakere bala, lakere bala
E daj o dad uchanel
Soske mange romeste man na kamel,
Soske mange romeste man na kamel
Translation:
Her hair, her hair
(Her) mother and father comb it
Her hair, her hair
(Her) mother and father comb it
(Literal) Why for me as a husband me she doesn’t want
(Meaning) Why doesn’t she want me for a husband?
Thanks a lot that’s great!!
