Ah, siñora novia

Mazaltó Lazar (Cisr-i Mustafa Paşa [Svilengrad]/Sofia)


This is a song about the bride’s preparations, dressing and combing her hair for the wedding. “Ah, lady bride, come down! I cannot, for I am combing my hair, a bride’s hairdo for my young man. Ah, lady bride, come down! I cannot, for I am getting dressed in a bride’s dress for my young man. When you will see, bride, your lover, hold his hand and take him to your side, for man’s son wants to be served and honored.”
