Voro Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by the Voro people of southeastern Estonia, who speak their own distinct South Estonian language. Voro is closely related to Seto, another South Estonian variety, and though some linguists debate whether it counts as a separate language or a dialect, the community has built a modern revival around it anyway, publishing its own newspaper and literature to keep the language actively used rather than just remembered. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.
