TITLE / LYRICS

Zazori se iasna zora

(Koledo le+)
zazori se iasna zora

niz houbava vlashka zemia.
Ne e bilo iasna zora
niz houbava vlashka zemia,
ne e bil dobur lovets,
dobur lovets, dobra poushka,
ne izgoni drebna lova,
no izgoni sour elena.
Elen biaga, vuzviva se,
ne se trepi dobur lovets,
razsurdi se dobur lovets,
che si skokna na dve-na tri,
ta oulovi sour elena.
