A popular serbian wedding song from Kosovo and Metohia. Although it is performed on festive occasions, the song begins with sad verses: "A dense fog has fallen... not a thing can be seen." A large number of songs from Kosovo begin with the same verses. These words are a metaphor for the suffering and pain of the Kosovo Serbs in slavery under the Turks. Dense fog symbolizes the burden of life, under the pressure of which freedom cannot be glimpsed ("not a thing can be seen"). In the very next verse, like light shining through the darkness of slavery, the song places a tall tree in sight. Beneath it sits a tailor, sewing a wedding waistcoat upon which silver adornments shine like stars in the sky. These verses testify to the existence of faith, hope and joy even in slavery.The words of this song are as true today as they were once.
The Serbs on the Kosovo Field not only paid with the staggering loss of 77,000 lives, but the Serbian nation suffered 500 years of Ottoman oppression. We cannot speak of Kosovo as though it were an event in the past that will never happen again. Kosovo is never-ending. Through the centuries, Serbian sacrifice and Kosovo have become synonymous. Kosovo is an eternal call to unity. It is our turn to respond to prince Lazar and his faithful army's extraordinary example.

Even if I do not understand the words, I like the song - melody and voice of the singer. Could anybody write down the original text as well as a translation in Englisch, German, French, Spanish or Turkish?
