about

Predi, predi hći moja is much longer song than we sing it. A girls mother tell her daughter who to marry. Mother wants her to marry shepherd, but she says he sleeps near the sheep. Then she wants her to marry various other guys from the village, but her daughter always finds something to object. In the end, she tell her to marry the begger, to which she agrees. She says that the begger begs for money all day, and brings home everything that he collected, and she will happily marry him.

lyrics

Predi predi hći moja,
svako lito jenu nit,
Ćeš se brže (j)oženit,
za koga junaka,
Za junaka ovčara.

Ovčarova glava,
na grbljači spava
Ljubiti ga neću ja.

Predi predi hći moja,
svako lito jenu nit,
Ćeš se brže (j)oženit,
za koga junaka,
Za junaka pekljara.

Pekljar prosi i naprosi,
ča naprosi doma nosi,
Njega ću ljubit ja.
