    There is a song called "gelem, gelem" from the Balkan area. Does anyone know it?
    I would need text+translation (english, french or german)

    Gelem, gelem, lungone dromensa
    Maladilem bakhtale Romensa
    A Romale katar tumen aven,
    E tsarensa bahktale dromensa?

    A Romale, A Chavale

    Vi man sas ek bari familiya,
    Murdadas la e kali legiya
    Aven mansa sa lumniake Roma,
    Kai putaile e romane droma
    Ake vriama, usti Rom akana,
    Men khutasa misto kai kerasa

    A Romale, A Chavale

    Translation:

    I went, I went on long roads
    I met happy Roma
    O Roma where do you come from,
    With tents on happy roads?

    O Roma, O brothers

    I once had a great family,
    The Black Legions murdered them
    Come with me Roma from all the world
    For the Roma roads have opened
    Now is the time, rise up Roma now,
    We will rise high if we act
