Macedonian lyrics

First stanza:
Macedonian girl,
a colourful bouquet,
Picked in the garden,
given as a gift.

Second stanza:
Is there in this white world,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian?
There isn’t, there isn’t, never will be born,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian.

Third stanza:
There are no stars brighter
than your eyes,
If they were in the sky at night,
there would be daylight.

Chorus:
Is there in this white world,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian?
There isn’t, there isn’t, never will be born,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian.

Fourth stanza:
When you unbraid your hair,
like silk,
you’re beautiful and more beautiful,
than a fairy.

Chorus:
Is there in this white world,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian?
There isn’t, there isn’t, never will be born,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian.

Fifth stanza:
When she sings a song,
she outsings a nightingale,
when she starts to dance oro,
she makes your heart dance with joy.

Chorus:
Is there in this white world,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian?
There isn’t, there isn’t, never will be born,
a girl more beautiful than a Macedonian.

Прва строфа:
Македонско девојче,
китка шарена,
во градина набрана
дар подарена.

Втора строфа:
Дали има на овој бели свет
поубаво девојче од Македонче?
Нема, нема не ќе се роди
поубаво девојче од Македонче.

Трета строфа:
Нема ѕвезди полични,
од твоите очи,
да се ноќе на небо
ден ќе раздени.

Рефрен:
Дали има на овој бели свет
поубаво девојче од Македонче?
Нема, нема не ќе се роди
поубаво девојче од Македонче.

Четврта строфа:
Кога коси расплетиш
како коприна
лична си и полична
од самовила.

Рефрен
Дали има на овој бели свет
поубаво девојче од Македонче?
Нема, нема не ќе се роди
поубаво девојче од Македонче.

Петта строфа:
Кога песна запее
славеј натпее,
кога оро заигра
срце разигра.

Рефрен:
Дали има на овој бели свет
поубаво девојче од Македонче?
Нема, нема не ќе се роди
поубаво девојче од Македонче.
