CIRO

(Croatie)          

/ Kad se Ćiro oženio
ćabar masti potrošio. /
When Ćiro got married
he used up a whole tub of butter.
Refrain :

/ Čaj Ćiro sedi s mirom,
u cure ne diraj. /


Hey Ćiro, sit quiet,
leave the girls alone!
/ Sedi Ćiro za odžakom
namaz'o se sa kajmakom. /
Ćiro sat behind the chimney
and smeared himself with kajmak.
/ Sedi Ćiro za trpezom
namaz'o se sa pekmezom. /
Ciro sat at the table
and smeared himself with jam.
/ Sedi Ćiro navrh slame
brkovima plaši vrane. /
Ciro sat atop a haystack
and scared the crows with his moustache.
