Bura
Klapa Sveti Juraj · Other Songs - Klapa Sveti Juraj
i tvoje je tilo obasla
misto mene tebe jubila
i list je jedan suvi ostavila
Sjena, mi je lice prekrila
i s neba se je misec primaka
suza ti je ruku smocila
sutila si, sutia san ja
I teka san, i bi san promrza
ta mi bura kosti sledila
pojubit te nisan moga ja
I teka san, a bi san promrza
ta mi bura kosti sledila
otisla si i nadu ubila
Da si samnon onda ostala
prepliva bi Mrtvo more ja
ne bi svoju mladost zalija
na nas dvoje sve bi stavija
Da si samnon onda ostala
ne bi sada prosjak bia ja
ne bi s drugon zivot dilija
mojoj ceri tvoje ime da
(pjesma Alena Vitasovica)
Bura
Bura stands as a defining recording by the renowned Croatian ensemble Klapa Sveti Juraj, capturing the essence of traditional Dalmatian klapa singing. The group, celebrated for their tight harmonies and emotive delivery, often explores themes of the sea, local weather, and regional identity within their discography. This particular track reflects the raw power of the bura wind, a fierce northeasterly gale common to the Adriatic coast, translating natural force into musical intensity. As part of their broader body of work, the song exemplifies the group's commitment to preserving the authentic sound of the YUG genre. Klapa Sveti Juraj continues to influence the landscape of Mediterranean vocal music through such evocative performances that resonate with audiences familiar with the coastal culture.
