Either find me a wife, or else buy me a tanpura
Girls say to me, say to me, say to meMeho, sell your oxen, oxen,
Sell them, Meho, in exchange for ducats,
And then I shall come to you.
(Ref. x2)
Listen, daddy, listen daddy,
Walnuts are expensive,
Either find me a wife, either find me a wife,
Or else buy me a tanpura.
One has to play (with) something!
Oh, girl, Bedrija, Bedrija, Bedrija,
I would like to marry you, marry you,
But the courthouse judges won't allow it,
They say I'm still too young.
(Ref. x2)
I'll give my dad one hundred, one hundred, one hundred
Years to make ready,
And I'll give him a hatful of gold coins.
One has to get married!
(Ref. x2)
