Sedi Ćira na vrh slame

Lyrics - Serbian

(Folk song from Serbia)

Sedi Ćira na vrh slame, brkovima plaši vrane (repeat)
Ćaj, Ćiro, sedi s’ mirom, ne mrdaj šeširom (repeat)

Sedi Ćira za trpezom, namazo se sa pekmezom (repeat)
Ćaj, Ćiro, sedi s’ mirom, ne mrdaj šeširom. (repeat)

Sedi Ćira za odžakom, namazo se sa kajmakom (repeat)
Ćaj, Ćiro, sedi s’ mirom, ne mrdaj šeširom. (repeat)

English Translation - Ćira* is sitting on top of the straw

Ćira* sits on top of the straw, scares crows with his mustache (repeat)
Caj, Ćiro, sit in peace, don’t move your hat (repeat)

Ćira is sitting at the table, spread with jam (repeat)
Caj, Ćiro, sit in peace, don’t move your hat. (repeat)

Ćira is sitting by the fireplace, spread with cream (repeat)
Caj, Ćiro, sit in peace, don’t move your hat. (repeat)
