  • Warding Off the Evil Eye Talk (Folk Style)

    Two gals sitting on a mossy stone / gab about God, grass, and the marvel of horseradish root / which in winter hides with the worm deep in the ground / until it detects the thunder’s sound.

  • Mushroom Gathering

    A golden day mid-week — / and what else would maidens seek? / “Mushroom gathering we will go!” / Baskets rustle and pink cheeks glow.

  • Dowry

    Work, girlies, work! / Work through day and night; / sew up blouses, little frocks, / then dress up to the nines!

  • A Flame

    When the boys arrive / Together with the girls / Hearts get lit / And faces glow in flame
