I was not older than 15 years oldI did not go to discos, and I rarely spend time with my friendsOn Korça cobblestones, I was leaving the little girlQuestions, serenades, and our neighborhood gypsy parties
We travel across the ancient land
along emptiness and desert sand
Searching for riches and for gold
From stories our ancestors told
Travelers since the day of birth
in search for gems of the earth
The gypsy read my hand
She said times were bad
I laughed nervously
Too scared to make her stop.
