Paroles et traduction Đorđe Balašević - Dodjoska

Dodjoska

Njenog brata znao sam
Tako, iz čuvenja
Nisam puno mario za te Dođoše
Vukla se ko kornjača
Jedna jesen lenja
Spori dani davno prođoše
Pretio je da če on
Na put da mi stane
I da mu se sestre okanem
A mi smo samo šetali
I pomalo kisli
Dobro sam se nagled'o
Njenih koraka
Druge su mi devojke
Pobegle iz misli
Prhnule ko jato čvoraka
Tih je dana zvonilo
U čast Malog Princa
I odvažnog Bilbo Baginsa
Na svim mojim crkvama
Satovi su stali
Kazaljke se srećom
Baš tada sklopiše
Sto hiljada reći znam
Al' jedna mi fali
Da nju kako treba opišem
I sram ga bilo, gospodo
Ko pomisli loše
Al' ni nalik na druge Dođoše
Otad baš ne uzimam
Svaku sto se pruža
Srce se odupire
Pa se privikne
Al' zumbuli su zumbuli
A ruža je ruža
Pa da na kraj sveta iznikne
Ma da se redom postroje
Odavde do čoška
Ni jedna ko moja Dođoška
Ta, idi,
Ni jedna ko moja Dođoška

Dodjoska

I knew her brother
So to speak, by reputation
I didn't care much for those Dođošas
She ambled like a tortoise
During that lazy autumn
Those slow days have long since passed
He threatened that he would
Stand in my way
And make me leave his sister alone
But all we did was walk
And get a little moody
I really enjoyed
The way she walked
Other girls
Have run away from my thoughts
Flown away like a flock of sparrows
During those days, the bells rang
In honor of the Little Prince
And of the brave Bilbo Baggins
On all my churches
The clocks stopped
The hands clasped together
Fortunately, just then
I know a hundred thousand words
But one escapes me
To describe her properly
And shame on you, gentlemen
If you think ill of it
But she is not like other Dođošas
Since then, I don't take
Every opportunity that comes along
My heart rebels
And then it gets used to it
But hyacinths are hyacinths
And a rose is a rose
Even if it sprang up at the end of the world
Even if they lined up in a row
From here to the corner
Not one is like my Dođoška
Go on,
Not one is like my Dođoška
