| Katerino mome, Katerino
Zasto si tolko, mome, hubava?
Kakva te majka, mome, razdala? Kakva si voda, mome, ti pila? |
Katerina, girl, Katerina
Why are you so beautiful? What kind of mother bore you? What kind of water did you drink? |
|
Ja sam si, milo libe, hubava,
Ja sam si, milo libe, gizdava Oti sam rasla, libe, v planina Oti sam rasla, libe, v Pirina. |
I am, dear love, so beautiful,
I am so attractive, Because I grew up on the mountain, Because I grew up on Pirin Mountain. |
|
Pirinska voda, libe, sam pila,
Pirinska treva, libe, gazila, Balgarska majka me e razdala, Majka pirinka, libe, gledala, Balgarska majka, libe, gledala. |
The Pirin water, love, I drank,
The Pirin grass I trod, A Bulgarian mother bore me, A Pirin mother raised me, A Bulgarian mother raised me. |
