Pesni za Ljubov i Kopnež (in Macedonian Cyrillic: Песни за љубов и копнеж, English translation: Songs of Love and Longing) is the first collaborative studio album by Macedonian singer Karolina Gočeva featuring Macedonian musician and producer Duke Bojadziev and Macedonian-American clarinetist Ismail Lumanovski. The album was released on 24 December 2022 through Avalon Production. A brief documentary film featuring footage of its recording was broadcast on 17 December 2022 on the national TV channel MRT 1.

Work on a collaborative project by the trio began in 2019 and due to delays related to the COVID-19 pandemic continued into early 2021 when most of the recording and production was finalized. The album was intended as a compilation of some "neglected" pop songs from the "Macedonian golden era in pop music" which includes the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. "Idila" was released as the album's lead single on 2 June 2021 along with an accompanying music video. Five concerts were held in promotion of the album and took place at the Macedonian Filharmonic on 23-25 December 2022 in Skopje.
