The song Eňa ori rači (At Nine in the Evening) is the slow and sentimental song, halgató. This type of songs are characterized by the romist Milena Hübschmannová (1988) as the ones with lyrics far more important than their melody, since one can say all with the song. In this song, the sister tells her brother that she fears for her life and begs him for protection.
