The song "Beli Grad" (White City) was written in Sveta Jana next to Jastrebarski.
As academician Katičić tells us in his book Fairy Gate, this is about a white city that is white because it was built by a white fairy.
According to pre-Christian Croatian and Slavic tradition, that female divine being is the great Slavic goddess Mokosh. She married her daughter at the gates of her city/court.
In this poem, we see that the young bride has several suitors, who are here called gentlemen.
The young bride laments, because she knows that she will have to leave her parents' home, and the horse motif is connected to her future husband, the young god Jarilo/Juraj, because he is often mentioned as either riding a horse or is himself represented as a horse.
Mokosh (Old East Slavic: Мóкошь) is a Slavic goddess mentioned in the Primary Chronicle, protector of women's work and women's destiny.
She watches over spinning and weaving, shearing of sheep and protects women in childbirth.
Mokosh is the Mother Goddess.
Mokoš was the only female deity whose idol was erected by Vladimir the Great in his Kiev sanctuary along with statues of other major gods (Perun, Hors, Dažbog, Stribog, and Simargl).
During the Christianization of Kievan Rus', she was replaced by the cult of the Virgin Mary and St. Paraskevia.
