Note 206 — LYRICS, SONGS, AND OCCASIONAL POEMS.
John Bowring translation
Lado, the vocative of Lada, the goddess of love, in the old Slavonian mythology. Lado! is a melancholy interjection in Servian, whereas Lele! the vocative of Lela, the god of love, has frequently a cheerful association: Polela (after love), the goddess of marriage, is also sometimes apostrophised.
