Gul** Zulaiha through a melon patch, strolls
as chatting with the honeydew***

Honeydew***, where were you wintering?
With a girl, under the white neck

where are being strung, pearl and corals
That is where I was wintering

* Sevdalinka, Bosnian sevdah song
** Persian, gul, گل & Turkish, gül, flower, rose. In Bosnian đul / dʒʊˈl.
