Notes
Thought by circle dancers to be Macedonian traditional, it is so only in the sense that The Miserlu is Greek traditional. This is probably meant to be the Makedonska which originated in Yugoslav Macedonian communities in the US.
Though it only resemble that dance and may well be a passed on by passed on and almost remembered version twice simplified.
(see also Lesnoto, Pravo Oro and Makedonska Devoice)
Walking step with easy flex of knees is used throughout. 

Words in Native Tongue
