about

Anka is a sad song about young girl who was, as a legend says, escorted to the woods by three armed gendarme. First of them carried chains, the second knifes and the third sabre, all in order to kill Anka. She asked them for their mercy but her destiny was inevitable.

lyrics

Aj pošla Anka u šumu,
Aj sekiron na ramenu,
Za njon gredu tri žandara,
Sva tri naoružana.

Prvi nosi okove,
Drugi nosi noževe,
A ta treći sablju tanku,
Da zakolje Anku.

Anka jin se prosila,
Bijele ruke sklopila,
Nemojte me braćo klati,
Majka će plakati,
Aj ča će reći moja majka,
Da je zaklana Anka.

Svi su momci plakali,
Ki su Anku ljubili,
Samo onaj nije plaka,
Ki je Anku zakla.
