Serb song from Kosovo and Metohija. This is a funeral song from Kosovo and Metohija (Kosmet). It's about a young woman looking at her dead husband, Janko, who just died in war. These are the scenes from NATO bombing of Serbia in 1999 during the fight against Albanian terrorist organization, and later on we see scenes of desecration of Serbian Orthodox churhes in 2004's pogrom of Serbs on Kosovo and Metohija which happened because Serbia was forced by NATO to retreat from Kosmet. For more information, watch a short film about Kosovo and Metohija here: Lyrics: Janko fell asleep under poplar tree, oh my dear beloved ones, My beautiful dark eyes Look at me, one last time Under poplar's golden branch, Oh my dear beloved ones, My beautiful dark eyes Look at me, one last time I plucked away the golden branch, Oh my dear beloved ones, My beautiful dark eyes Look at me, one last time Lyrics in Serbian: Засп'о Јанко под јабланом Миле моје драге Лијепе моје црне очи Погледајте на ме Под јаблано''м златном граном Миле моје драге Лијепе моје црне очи Погледајте на ме Ја отрго' златну грану Миле моје драге Лијепе моје црне очи Погледајте на ме
