    Default I am 100 % Serbian...Have a question about a song my mother sang to me when I was you

    Live in Pennsylvania

    All I know is to try phonetically type the song words...

    " Ya som ce rota...Na ma nee coo ga...otcya nema mika nema, ya som ce rota..."

    I know my post is silly, but I would love to know anything about this song. I sang it to my children when they were infants...bedtime song

    Thanks

    Ja sam sirota nemam nikoga
    Oca nemam, majke nemam, ja sam sirota.

    Sirotice ti, nemoj plakati,
    Jer ti ljubiš jednog momka, crna oka dva.

    Ja sam sirota, al' sam bogata
    Jer me ljubi jedno momče koga volim ja.

    and...here is the melody http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMb9Yg_Aa3c
    hope it helps

    I'm an Orphan

    I'm an orphan, I have no one
    I have no father, I have no mother, I'm an orphan.

    Oh orphan, do not cry,
    Because you love a guy, with two black eyes.

    I'm an orphan, but I'm rich
    Because a guy whom I love loves me.
