lyrics
CHOKO CHERNOKO MOMICHE
Choko chernoko momiche
ne metaj sevdjo na selo //
naj metaj sevdjo na mene
Che sme si lika prilika
kajno dva stroka iglika
kajno bosilchek v gradina
kajno dva bora vâv gora.
Junache ludo i mlado
na teb sa sevdjo ne meta //
che sme si pusta rodnina.
Choko chernoko momiche
dŭlboka voda brod nema
shiroko pole hod nema
hubava moma rod nema.
CHOKO, BLACK-EYED GIRL
Choko, black-eyed girl,
don't throw your love to the whole village,
give it all to me
because we're made for each other
like two primroses,
like the basil in the garden,
like two pine trees in the forest.
Oh you crazy young thing,
I can't fall in love with you—
we're close relatives!
Choko, black-eyed girl,
deep water has no ford,
a broad field has no path across it,
a beautiful girl has no family.
Choko chernoko momiche
ne metaj sevdjo na selo //
naj metaj sevdjo na mene
Che sme si lika prilika
kajno dva stroka iglika
kajno bosilchek v gradina
kajno dva bora vâv gora.
Junache ludo i mlado
na teb sa sevdjo ne meta //
che sme si pusta rodnina.
Choko chernoko momiche
dŭlboka voda brod nema
shiroko pole hod nema
hubava moma rod nema.

a broad field has no path across it,
a beautiful girl has no family.
