Good to know
What “Fli, Fli, Djali Im” Means
Kosovo, one of Europe’s youngest countries, shares the Albanian language and the double-headed eagle symbol with Albania, and the Sharr Mountains rise along its southern border. This original lullaby, in Albanian, borrows both, the mountains and the watchful eagle.
