Jovano Jovanke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jovano, Jovanke (Macedonian: Јовано, Јованке, Bulgarian: Йовано, Йованке) is a traditional Macedonian and Bulgarian folk song. It is about two young lovers separated by their disapproving parents.
Jovana is a female name, and Jovanka is the diminutive version of it. The usages Jovano and Jovanke are in the vocative case, still often used by Bulgarians and Macedonians when addressing each other.
The song is among those performed by Bulgarian singer and entertainer Slavi Trifonov, who has also filmed a patriotic video to it, which recreates the Bulgarian victory in the Battle of Doiran during the First World War.[1]
