Braca Teofilovic - Varaj Leno Magdaleno

Bewitched by the beauty of Magdalena -- affectionately nicknamed Lena -- the poet is especially struck by her dark eyes. Realising that hers is a beauty beside which any man would wish to spend the rest of his life, the poet bemoans the fact that she is not iz dobre kuce (from a good family), barem da si od koleno (of good issue). The girl herself is aware of this drawback, yet remains equally aware and proud of her own loveliness. She feels that her humble origins should not detract from the beauty of her hair, her face, and, above all, the intoxicating attraction of her dark eyes...

Lyrics:
Varaj Leno, Magdaleno,
Varaj imaš crne oči.
Varaj Leno, Magdaleno,
Barem da si od koleno.
Ako nesam od koleno,
Ja si imam ruse kose,
Ako nesam od koleno,
Ja si imam belo lice,
Ako nesam od koleno,
Ja si imam crne oči.

Braca kad zapevaju, dusa zadrhti, dah zastane, ponekom i suza krene.

Treba doziveti tu srecu i slusati ih uzivo.

U velikoj vecnici Subotice, kao i u sinagogi u Subotici, bio sam prisutan telom, dusa je otisla na put sa njihovim pevanjem.

Neopisivo.
