Gusta mi magla padnala
(Serbian traditional from Strpce, Kosovo)

Gusta mi magla padnala lelo
Na toj mi ramno Kosovo
Nista se zivo ne vidi
Do jedno drvo visoko
Pod njeg mi sediv terzije
Oni mi sijev jelece
Kol'ko su dzvezde na nebo
Tol'ko su sarke na njega

English:
Thick fog has fallen on that flat, wide Kosovo. Nothing can be seen, nothing living except a huge tree and underneath a couple of tailors making a suit for me. There are as many patterns on it as stars in the sky.

Deutsch:
Dichter Nebel hat sich ueber dass weite Amselfeld gelegt und man sieht nichts ausser einem hohen Baum und darunter eine Gruppe von Schneidern, die an einem Anzug fuer mich arbeiten. Es gibt darauf so viele Muster wie Sterne am Himmel
