LYRICS

	Web www.paulboizot.co.uk

Names in brackets after song titles are of specific Circle or International Folk Dances done to that song. See also Dance Titles Cross-Reference. Songs are presumed to be traditional unless otherwise stated. 

An excellent free resource is the MIT Folk Dance Club Songbook (pdf format). I have included a few lyrics from there on this site. Sometimes transferring them to text format needs work to display accents or diacritics properly. More recent is Birgit Karlson's Folklore Songbook for Short-Sighted People - nice big print, useful even if you have good sight! There are words to 187 Yugoslav songs, some with chords, at The Book of Old City Songs (Pesmarica Jugoslovenske Starogradske Muzike)- LINK REPAIRED 20.09.06. For more sites, see LINKS - try searching for "lyrics" using edit/find or CTRL+F.
