    Actually, I do sing in the streets! Yes, it is true. That is one of way of how I am supporting myself as an artist, so that I don´t need to do all those cleaning, etc jobs any more... And I love the freedom of buskers´ life, also the wonderful way of directly connecting with people.

about

Medieval dance, based on a Hungarian folk song of Zoboralja (a region in South-West Slovakia), with drops of music from the Middle East and Northern Europe, wrapped in techno.
Imagine young couples dancing & jumping around a big fire on Midsummer Night, so that they will get marry and their matrimony be blessed with children...

lyrics

HUNGARIAN LYRICS:

Ne aludj el, ket szememnek vilaga,
Mert mar feljott piros hajnal csillaga.

Egyik csillag Kostyal Janos csillaga,
Masik csillag Potus Anni csillaga.

Akit adtam, a jegygyurut add vissza,
Homaly fogta gyemantkovet nem tiszta.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Don't fall asleep, light of my two eyes,
Because the Morning Star has already risen.

One of the stars is of Janos Kostyal,
The other star is of Anni Potus.

Give me back what I've given you, the engagement ring,
Its diamond gem has been blurred, it's not clear.
