MORI RISO, RISO

Bulgaria. 7/8 rhythm. One recording is used on UK International Folk Dance and Circle Dance networks as music for the dance Širiton aka Širto.

Mori, Riso, Riso, /2
kade si odila, Riso, doma ne si bila. /2

U lelini beh si, /2
u lelini beh si, mamo, gosti si imaya. /2

Gosti si imaya, /2
gosti si imaya, mamo, s tamburi drnkaya. /2

S tamburi drnkaya, /2
s tamburi drnkaya, mamo, telove kuhsaya. /2

NB not sure how best to transliterate “kuhsaya” from Cyrillic; first syllable pronounced as "a" in English “balloon”.

Mene me fanaya/2
mene me fanaya, mamo, telove da vrzvam. /2

    Мори, Рисо, Рисо

Мори, Рисо, Рисо, /2
каде си одила, Рисо, дома не си била. /2

У лелини бех си, /2
у лелини бех си, мамо, гости

Гости си имая, /2
гости си имая, мамо, с тамбури
дрънкая. /2

С тамбури дрънкая, /2
с тамбури дрънкая, мамо,
тельове късая. /2

Мене ме фаная, /2
мене ме фаная, мамо,
тельове да връзвам. /2
