There are many displaced persons as a consequence of war with
many incredible stories to tell.

lyrics

Majka Katu zarana budila:
- Ustaj, Kato, moje sunce žarko,
Turki su ti dvore opkolili!
Baš na vrati turski harambaša.
- Ne budi mi Katicu divojku,
Ja ću si je i sam prebuditi,
Zlatnom žicom po tenkoj košulji,
A z ružicom po rumenom licu.
Ošli Turki z Katicom divojkom.
Kad su prešli prek crlenog mora,
Pregovori Katica divojka:
- Oj, prokleto to crleno more,
Moj te braco tri put prebrodio.
Al govori turski harambaša:
- Aj, Katico, ljepa ljubo moja,
Kak je tvome bracu ime bilo?
- Mome braci Đuro ime bilo,
Na nogaj mu čižme kordovane,
A na glavi kapa đerđenova.
Al govori turski harambaša.
- Oj, Katice, nisi ljuba moja,
Već ti jesi mila seka moja.
Zašt' mi nesi prvo povedala,
Majku bi sa sobom mi poveli.

Mother was waking Kata early in the morning, saying that the Ottomans have surrounded their
home. The harambasha (leader) said: „Don't wake Katica, I will wake her myself, caressing her rosy
cheeks with a flower. “The Ottomans left and took Katica with them. When they crossed the Red Sea,
Katica said: „Damn you, Red Sea! My brother crossed you three times. “ The Ottoman harambasha
asked: „Katica, my beautiful sweetheart, what was your brother's name? “„My brother's name was
Đuro.“ „Katica, you are not my sweetheart, but my dear sister! Why didn't you tell me earlier; we
could have taken our mother with us. “
