about

Track 2 on the album Roots.

Lively, danceable love song in folky 9/8 time signature, with the Greek bouzouki as lead instrument. The Macedonian language fits well with this sort of rhythm. It talks about the ups and downs in a relationship, genuinely filled with affection and humour.

lyrics

UP AND DOWN (lyrics description)

A love story about the ups and downs in a relationship filled with affection and humor and sung in Macedonian folk-style.

ДЕ НА ГОРЕ ДЕ НА ДОЛЕ

Ние двајца сме си, вљубени, скарани
Наш'та љубов си е, романи, пишани

Де на лево де на десно ми бегаш душо
Ти со мене си поигруваш знај
Де на горе де на доле ме трескаш, дудо
Не можам да излезам на крај

Де ти пречи што сум гласен,
Де ти пречи што сум тажен
Тивок, повлечен, сам

Де ми велиш ај со мене
Де ми велиш ти без мене
- ќе си бидеш на раат

Нашиот живот си е цртанка, обоена
Црвена, портокалова, бела, црна и зелена

Де на лево де на десно ми бегаш душо
Ти со мене си поигруваш знај
Де на горе де на доле ме трескаш, дудо
Не можам да излезам на крај

Де ти пречи што си свирам,
Цел ден јас те игнорирам
Не те фермам јас

Де ми велиш сакаш простор
Со себе да бидеш просто
- Себе се најдеш ти

(transliteration)

Nie dvajca sme si, vljubeni, skarani
Nash'ta ljubov si e, romani, pishani

De na levo de na desno mi begash dusho
Ti so mene si poigruvash znaj
De na gore de na dole me treskash, dudo
Ne mozham da izlezam na kraj

De ti prechi shto sum glasen,
De ti prechi shto sum tazhen
Tivok, povlechen, sam

De mi velish aj so mene
De mi velish ti bez mene
- kje si bidesh na raat

Nashiot zhivot si e crtanka, oboena
Crvena, portokalova, bela, crna i zelena

De na levo de na desno mi begash dusho
Ti so mene si poigruvash znaj
De na gore de na dole me treskash, dudo
Ne mozham da izlezam na kraj

De ti prechi shto si sviram,
Cel den jas te ignoriram
Ne te fermam jas

De mi velish sakash prostor
So sebe da bidesh prosto
- Sebe se najdesh ti
