Pasem konja kraj mjeseca Mjesec zađe, strah me nađe Pa uzjašem vrana konja, Pa odješim na kraj sela, Gdje djevojke kolo vode I med njima moja draga * * * I am watching my horse graze by the moolight The moon sets, and fear gets hold of me I mount my horse and ride off to the village outskirts Where maidens are dancing the kolo (sacred circle dance) My love is among them

Mi smo rekle zapivati ovde Bilo večer, bilo usrid podne Mi smo seke skupa vojovale A za jednim obe tugovale Moj Dragane, moja razonodo Zarasle su staze di si hodo *** We've said we'll sing here No matter if it's night or noon We, sisters, have been at war together And two of us mourned the same man My Dragan, my lover The paths you once walked have all overgrown

Zvira voda iz kamena, hladna studena. Rasti roža iz korena, lepa, črlena. Divojčica rože brala, pak je zaspala. Poleg jahal mladi junak, stiha jo budi: Stani gori divojčica, jel' si zaspala. Rože so ti povehnule, kaj si nabrala.

Kod Lepanta, sunce moje, kod Lepanta, kod Lepanta, sunce moje, utopi si tilo, tilo jako. Kod Lepanta u bojevju, kod Lepanta, kod Lepanta u bojevju galijunin Turci, 'Oće l' more igdar dovuć' 'oće l' more, 'oće l' more igdar dovuć' tvome mistu kosti, kosti bile? 'Ol' će more mene odvuć' 'ol' će more mene odvuć', 'ol' će more, 'ol' će more mene odvuć dolin u tve dvore, dvore smirne? At Lepanto my love, your strong body drowned, At Lepanto, in the battle of galleys, Turks, raging Turks. Will the sea ever wash your white bones up the shores of your homeland? Or will it drag me down to your halls? Your quiet halls.

about

**By buying this compilation you are helping Indra's family to build a new house since their old one was destroyed by a strong earthquake**

Merging Croatian traditional music with modern psychedelic chill/dub/glitch, "Horns of Veles" compilation guides us through different centuries and regions of Croatia via sound and ambience. For this unique occasion, local artists who have a way of building pathways throughout webs of time are carefully selected. They expressed that sweet spot of connection between traditional and modern through a visionary re-envisioning of ancient songs, sung just for this compilation.

Veles is a major Slavic god of earth, waters, livestock and the underworld. His attributes are wet, wooly, hairy (bearded), dark and with horns. He is associated with cattle, the harvest, wealth, music, magic, and trickery. He has a role in the carnival customs of Koledari shamans and as protector of travelling musicians. In some wedding ceremonies in northern Croatia, the music would not start playing unless the bridegroom, when making a toast, spilled some of the wine on the ground. The symbolism of this is clear: the musicians will not sing until a toast is made to their patron deity.
