lyrics

Kamen goli, sunce u mom oku,
Jedan cjelov da ti kaze sve
Moja kosa pokrila ti rame
Zbogom rekoh, planina te sakri

(Barren rocks, sun in my eye,
One kiss to tell it all
My hair, covering your shoulder
Goodbye, I said, and the mountain concealed you)

Kise ove s mora dal su dosle
I dal tvoju suzu mi donose,
A vjetar sto mi mrsi kose
Miso s tvojih usana je tako

(These rains, do they come from the sea
And do they bring me your tears
And this wind that tangles my hair,
Has it touched a thought from your lips)

I sad tebe cekam moja diko da se vratis i ispunis dan
A tvoji mi zagrljaji topli griju dusu na vjetru tom
I sad tebe cekam moja diko da se vratis i uljepsas san
I sjecam se svih tih divonih noci, zvjezda, neba i mirisa tvog.

(And now I’m waiting for you, my pride to come back, fulfill the days
While your arms around me warm my soul on the cold wind
And now I’m waiting for you, my pride, to come back, embellish dreams
Remembering all those beautiful nights, stars, skies, and your smell)

Ptice lete, plavo nebo moje
Necu majko, nikog drugog necu
Kazes, dijete ostavit ces srecu
Al planine ne mijenjaju boje


Birds fly, my blue sky
No, dear mother, I’ll accept no one else
You say to me, my child, you’re leaving your happiness,
But, mum, you know that mountains don’t change their colours

Mirise rosa, livada se sjaji
Moja ruka prema necem krece
Ka leptiru sto na cvjetak sljece,
Il ka moru sto mi nesto taji

(I can smell the dew, the meadow shines,
My arm moves towards something,
Towards a butterfly that is landing on a flower
Or towards the sea, that keeps a secret from me )

I sad boga molim moja diko da ne ostanem sama tu
Al mene i sve te moje pjesme, utisale mirne planine
I sad tebe zove njena diko da ne ostane sama tu zauvjek
Al tebe nit svih tih divnih noci vise nema u oku svom

(And now I’m praying the God, my pride, not to stay all alone
But both I and all of my songs, got silenced by those still mountains,
And now she is calling for you, her pride, not to stay here all alone forever,
But you and all of those beautiful nights reside in her eye no longer.)
