The folk song Ant tėvelio dvaro sakalai krypavo (translated as The Hawks Cried at Father's Estate) was recorded by the prominent Lithuanian scholar Jonas Basanavičius in the late 19th century.
Sung by villagers from Dziegcioriai village, this piece is part of Lithuania's rich folklore tradition. The song has been preserved and archived by the Lithuanian Literature and Folklore Institute, offering a glimpse into the cultural practices of rural Lithuania during that period.
For further exploration of this song and its historical context, the original audio and cover image are available in the Lithuanian Folklore Archive, managed by the Institute.
