Smoluca - Rodoljub Vulovic Roki Übersetzung ins Englische

Smoluca

Avgustovsko leto, devedeset druge
Sumorno je bilo, i puno tuge
Krvarila rana, teska goruca
Herojski se branila Tinja i Smoluca
Tri meseca puna tako sama
Opkoljena bila sa svih strana
Danima tako sve u krug se vrti
A zivot je bio samo korak do smrti
Cekali su dusmani kao gladni vuci
Cekali trenutak sa kamenom u ruci
Stigla braca gardisti, sve sami junaci
Da spase decaka uplakanoj majci.
Bila nam je svima teska rana
Poslednji vrelih avgustovskih dana
Krvarila rana, teska goruca
Herojski se branila Tinja i Smoluca
Suzama i srecom zalivena lica
Umorno jato ranjenih ptica
Tamo je i kamen poceo da place
A obruc se stezao sve jace i jace
Cekali su dusmani kao gladni vuci
Cekali trenutak sa kamenom u ruci
Stigla braca gardisti, sve sami junaci
Da spase decaka uplakanoj majci

Smoluca

August heat, ninety-second
It was gloomy and full of sadness
The wound bled, hard with fever
Tinja and Smoluca defended themselves heroically
Three months full of loneliness
Besieged from all sides
So everything goes round in circles
But life was only one step away from death
The enemies waited like hungry wolves
Waiting for the moment with a stone in their hand
The brotherly guardsmen arrived, all heroes
To save the young boy for his weeping mother.
We all had a hard wound
Those last hot August days
The wound bled, hard with fever
Tinja and Smoluca defended themselves heroically
Faces flooded with tears and happiness
A tired flock of wounded birds
There, even the stone started to weep
The siege tightened, harder and harder
The enemies waited like hungry wolves
Waiting for the moment with a stone in their hand
The brotherly guardsmen arrived, all heroes
To save the young boy for his weeping mother
