More Sokol Pie

Copied from the MIT Folk Dance Club Songbook.
I found another version in a usenet posting.

Note: h denotes a caron accent on the preceding letter in the Macedonian text

MIT version
More sokol pie voda na Vardaro.
More sokol pie voda na Vardaro.

Chorus:
Jane, Jane le belo grlo.
Jane, Jane le belo grlo.

More oj sokole, ti junachko pile,

More ne vide li, junak da premine?

Junak da premine s devet ljuti rani?

S devet ljuti rani, site kurshumliji,

A deseta rana s nozh e probodena.
   A Variation
More sokol pie voda na Vardaro.
More sokol pie voda na Vardaro.

Chorus:
Jane, Jane le belo grlo.
Jane, Jane le krotko jagne.

More oj sokole, ti junachko pile,

More ne li vide, junak da pomine?

Junak da pomine s devet ljuti rani?

S devet ljuti rani, site kurshumliji,

A deseta rana so nozh e probodena.
   English
The falcon drinks water from the (river) Vardar.


Chorus:
Oh Jana, white-throated Jana.
?? (Line just repeated in MIT version)

O falcon, hero's bird,

Have you not seen a hero go past?

A hero go past with nine angry wounds?

Nine angry wounds, all from bullets,

and tenth wound, stabbed with a knife.
