What does she sing about?

She makes metaphors by using lemon. For example,

+I planted lemon so that it can grow until autumn, neither it grew, nor you came.
-I was going to take you, but a missive(from the Army) found me.

The lyrics are written in mutual dialogue format.

From Dobruja



...and here a Romanian song from 19th century by Anton Pann that sounds similar. Üsküdar'a gider iken was very popular in the Balkans back then. I guess he was inspired by it.
