"Ederlezi" is a popular traditional folk song of the Romani people in the Balkans.

The song got its name from Ederlezi, which is a festival^[1] celebrating the return of springtime, especially by the Romani people of the Balkans, and elsewhere around the world. Ederlezi is the Romani name for the Serbian Djurdjevdan, the Feast of Saint George. It is celebrated on 6 May [O.S. 23 April] (occurring approximately 40 days after the spring equinox),^[2] mainly by Orthodox Serbs. The various Balkan spellings (Herdeljez, Erdelezi) are variants of the Turkish Hıdırellez, a holiday signaling the beginning of spring, occurring on the same day. (Wikipedia)

Ederlezi is the gypsy name of the Bulgarian and Serbian festival of Saint George. It is celebrated on May 6, a holiday that marks the beginning of spring, which occurs about 40 days after the spring equinox. This spring festival is particularly celebrated by Roma throughout the former Yugoslavia (and in other parts of the world), regardless of religious affiliation.

This festival celebrates the return of spring and is considered the most important

Ederlezi è il nome zingaro della festa bulgara e serba di San Giorgio.

Questo festival di primavera è particolarmente celebrato dai rom in tutta l’ex Jugoslavia (e in altre parti del mondo), indipendentemente dall’affiliazione religiosa.

Questa festa celebra il ritorno della primavera ed è considerata la più importante.
