Voljelo Se Dvoje Mladih (Indexi)

Voljelo se dvoje mladih
šest mjeseci i godinu.
I htjedoše da se uzmu,
Dušmani im ne dadoše.
Razbolje se l′jepa Fatma,
Jedinica u majke,
Poželjela žute dunje,
žute dunje iz Stambola.
Ode dragi da donese
žute dunje carigradske,
Al' ga nema tri godine,
Nit′ se javlja, niti dolazi.
Doðe dragi sa dunjama,
Nade Fatmu na nosilima:
"Dvjesto dajem, spustite je,
Tristo dajem, otkrite je,
Da još jednom Fatmu vidim ja!"

Two Young People Loved Each Other (Indexi)

Two young people loved each other
For six months and a year.
And they wanted to get married,
Their enemies did not allow them.
Fair Fatma fell ill,
Her mother's only child,
She craved yellow quinces,
Yellow quinces from Istanbul.
Her beloved went to fetch
Yellow quinces from Constantinople,
But he was gone for three years,
Neither showing up, nor contacting her.
Her beloved came with the quinces,
And found Fatma on a stretcher:
"Two hundred, let me hold her,
Three hundred, uncover her,
So that I may see Fatma one more time!"
