about

Istria, as a geographical region, spreads through three countries: Croatia, Slovenia and Italy. Both of the three languages are represented in various parts of Istra. In south, around the village of Galižana, song “Bella Brunetta” was sung in a specific way, while the same song in northern parts was sung differently. We combined those two versions while keeping original lyrics. By listening the song you will hear those two versions interlapping.

lyrics

Dove ti vadi bella brunetta,
Cosi soleta per la cita.

Io me ne vado da la Fontana
Che la mia mamma me ga manda.

‘Speta, aspeta un momentino,
Fino che l’aqua se schiarira.

Cento ducati io te daria,
Solo una notte dormer con me

‘Speta chi io vado da la mia mamma,
qualche consiglio la mi dara.

O mamma mia son qua per dirti
che un cavaliere me ha ricerca.

Cento ducati lui me daria,
Solo una notte dormir con lui.

Ciapili, ciapili o figlia mia,
I sara bonni per maridar.

E ghe daremo la medesina,
Sera il mattina lu’l dormira.

Altri cento ducati io ted aria,
Ancora una notte dormir con me

‘speta chi io vado da la mia mamma,
qualche consiglio la mi dara.

Non voi consigli de la tua mamma,
Cento ducati io ha magna.
