ТАМО ДАЛЕКО - Faraway,Traditional Serbian Song, Kuban Cossack Chorus https://youtube/watch?v=kUgxerVgAaA#t=44 Tamo daleko is a traditional Serbian song from World War I. The song is sung by a soldier on the island of Corfu, following the withdrawal of the Serbian Army through northern Albania after Serbia was overrun by the Central Powers. He sings of his village, the (now destroyed) church in which he married, and the disastrous retreat during which many of his comrades died of cold, hunger, and disease, not to mention bandit attacks. Corfu is known to this day as the Blue Tomb because so many died there they had to bury many at sea.. This rendition is performed by the famous Kuban Cossack Chorus from South Russia.
