Lule Bore

Recorded June 23, 2025 in Waterbury, Connecticut.
Fragment.

Called a "lullaby" by the sisters at Euro Grocery, it is a sentimental popular song from the 1940s which has become a predominant melodic motif within Albanian culture.

Eja, eja lulebore
Se me ty do thur kunor
Eja, eja lulebore
Se me ty do thur kunor
Come, come, snowflower
For I will weave a wreath with you
Come, come, snowflower
For I will weave a wreath with you
