Gypsies are mostly depicted with light hair and white skin in Sims 2. Their origin is almost exclusively indicated by their clothing and activities. (Circus, fortune telling, traveling on horse-drawn carriages)
This might be authentic in England, for example, but recently a Gypsy friend laughed good when I told him about it.

"You know, we gypsies are black like the cauldron. The real gypsy is all black-haired and brown-skinned."

I made a Hungarian Gypsy guy and a Hungarian Gypsy girl.
I tried to create realistic characters.
They are not romantic figures but authentic Gypsy people.
Both are adult sim in modern outfits.

Sándor - Alexander
Magdolna - Magdalena, Magdi - Maggie





SÁNDOR, THE HUNGARIAN GYPSY BOY




MAGDI (MAGDOLNA), THE HUNGARIAN GYPSY GIRL



And a beautiful song - the official anthem of the Hungarian Gypsies, along with lyrics.
(I have translated the English text. I hope it is understandable)

The Gandhi School Choir singing the Gypsy Hymn Zöld az erdő (Green the forest)


In Hungarian language:

Zöld az erdő, zöld a hegy is
A szerencse jön is, megy is
Gondok kése húsunkba vág
Képmutató lett a világ

Egész világ ellenségünk
Űzött tolvajokként élünk
Nem loptunk mi csak egy szöget
Jézus vérző tenyeréből

Isten, könyörülj meg nékünk
Ne szenvedjen tovább népünk
Megátkoztál, meg is vertél
Örök csavargóvá tettél

Isten, könyörülj meg nékünk
Ne szenvedjen tovább népünk
Megátkoztál, meg is vertél
Örök csavargóvá tettél


in romany (gipsy) language:

Zeleno vesh, zeleno plaj,
amari bax, avel thaj zhal,
gindongo buss ando mas del
andej luma buzhanglipej.

Intrego luma dushmanoj,
sako rom sar chor nashadoj,
chi chordam jekh karfin numa,
andaj Jezusheski palma.

Devla zhutin pe amende,
na de mila pe romende,
amaja dan thaj vi mardan,
nashadeske amen shutan

Devla zhutin pe amende,
na de mila pe romende,
amaja dan thaj vi mardan,
nashadeske amen shutan

In english language:

Green in the forest ...

Green is the forest, green is the mountain
Luck is coming, too
The knife of trouble cuts our flesh
The world became hypocritical

The whole world is our enemy
We live as mundane thieves
We didn't steal just one nail
From the bleeding palm of Jesus

God, have mercy on us
Don't worry our people
You cursed, you beat me
You made it an eternal tramp

God, have mercy on us
Don't continue to suffer our people
You cursed, you beat me
You made it an eternal tramp
