Zurli trestat nasred selo
Tapancuka rum dum dum
Mladi momi I ergeni
Do dve ora vijat
Rum dum dum du, rum dum dum du
Rum dum dum du, rum dum du
Ozdol ide star bel dedo zasukal mustaki
Parvo trga na oroto I onda se fati
Rum dum dum du, rum dum dum du
Rum dum dum du, rum dum du
Go zdogleda baba Neda za raka go fati
Kade odis staro aro oro da im grdis
Kade odis staro a
Oro da im grdis, ajde de!
Rum Dum Dum (translation)
The sound of zurle blares in the middle of the village
Tapan-chuka, rum-dum-dum
Young women and men
Are dancing in two circles
Rum dum dum du, rum dum dum du
Rum dum dum du, rum dum du
An old, white-haired grandpa comes along, stroking his moustaches
And goes straight to dance in the circle
Rum dum dum du, rum dum dum du
Rum dum dum du, rum dum du
Grandma Neda spots him and grabs him by his hand
What are you doing you old twit
Spoiling their dancing come on now!
