A okolo Levoči

A okolo Levoči/Around Levoča, a town in the Spiš region of Slovakia, is one of the most beloved Slovak folk songs. The song originates in the town of Kluknava in the Šariš region in Eastern Slovakia ("Spieva Janka Guzová ", © 1995 Akcent, Bratislava, p. 19). Performed by American musician Mazurka Wojciechowska. The regional dialect is similar to Polish, so if you understand Polish you should be able to figure out the words of this song. To paraphrase: "Around [the town of] Levoča, water is swirling. Whoever doesn't have a boyfriend, jump in."
" Are you NUTS?"

Krásné!!! Nádherná písnička mistrovsky zahraná:-) Neporadila byste mi, prosím, kde bych sehnala noty (na akordeon) k této písni? Hraji ji jen tak podle ucha, ale Vašich kvalit to nedosahuje...

@barcis7 Ďakujem! Bohužiaľ, neviem, kde byste mohli nájšť nôty na harmoniku. Tiež som sa naučila túto piesničku podľa ucha a to bolo pred 10 rokmi.

Very nice performance. One correction, though. Levoča is in the Spiš region of Slovakia, not in Šariš.

@TheGenealogyGuy Thank you!  I have made the correction in the notes.
