Vezilka, tell me how to be born
simple and strict Macedonian song
from this heart that leads with itself
conversation nocten vo trevoga besna?
- Cut two strings from your heart, dear,
one is black and the other is red,
one of them be creepy tags,
secondly, longing and bright and burning.
Blaze Koneski
