about

This is a wedding song. It is about lots of beautiful girls doomed to be married and it is singing about how they should be careful to not pick a bad husband. This type of song and singing is a big part of Lithuanian heritage called Sutartines. Sutartinės (from the word sutarti – to be in concordance) is a form of polyphonic music performed by female singers in north-east Lithuania. Some of the types of sutartines involve intentional dissonance in harmonies which can be heard in Sviro lingo.

lyrics

Sviro lingo

Sviro lingo mergeliu suolas x2 lioj

Visos linksmos visos grazios x2 lioj

Uzu marguju torelkeliu x2 lioj

Ar tau tevelis ar tau motule x2 lioj

Isei ,sesula, viduj aslales x 2 lioj

Tik nepalauzkie rutu sakeles x2 lioj

Nelenk ,sesula, mazo didzio x2 lioj

Si ryteli si baltuti x2 lioj



Translation:

A full bench of girls was bending

All of them are happy and beautiful

Behind the colourful plates

Is it the father or is it the mother

Come out, sister, outside the house

Don’t bend the rue branch

Don’t pick a small size
