Description:
A traditional folk song from the region, telling the story of a meeting by the Danube.
Lyrics:
By the Danube I saw a young maiden
No one knows her, who she is, whose she is. / 2
Sweet maiden hop-hop, with sandals stomp-stomp
Sewn skirts swish-swish, my heart aches thump-thump. / 2
Tell me, maiden, who you are, whose you are
How old you are, say it, don’t lie. / 2
Sweet maiden hop-hop, with sandals stomp-stomp
Sewn skirts swish-swish, my heart aches thump-thump. / 2
And will you be able to remarry my older sister
Remarry my sister, and take me for your own. / 2
Sweet maiden hop-hop, with sandals stomp-stomp
Sewn skirts swish-swish, my heart aches thump-thump. / 2
