Heey girl, Heey Hasniya
what do you need an amulet for
made in Travnik
tucked inside your scarf
to protect you from young men
from young men – from rascals
or do you wear the amulet
because of evil eyes and wicked gazes

what do you need an amulet for
made in Travnik

Oh Zikriya – young hero
my beloved is inexperienced
I wear my amulet
to protect my young beloved
Heey girl, Heey Hasniya
what do you need an amulet for
made in Travnik
tucked inside your scarf
to guard him in the evenings
so they do not cast spells on him
so they do not cast spells on him
so they do not separate him from me
