Lamento - Zrinka Übersetzung ins Englische

Lamento

Sad kad njega više nema
Evo, uzmi još i mene
Ovu jadnu, trošnu lađu
Što se na put zadnji sprema, zadnji sprema

Sve sam svoje tebi dala
Zadnje suze, oka zjene
Cijeli život ja sam samo
Da ga čuvaš molit' znala, molit' znala

Okrutno more, trude moje plati
Milostivo budi, čuvaj ga i vrati
Okrutno more, i u bijesu svome
Milostivo budi, ti jedincu mome

Sad je hladno pod tim suncem
Zvijezde trnu usred noći
Zalud tražim tople ruke
Da mi trudnoj sklope oči, sklope oči

Čvrsto čuvaš zlatne ruke
Gdje ne stiže svjetla zraka
Da mu 'mjesto neke sike
Sada budeš crna raka, crna raka

Okrutno more, trude moje plati
Milostivo budi, čuvaj ga i vrati
Okrutno more, i u bijesu svome
Milostivo budi, ti jedincu mome

Okrutno more

Lament

Now that he's no more
Here, take me too
This poor, worn-out ship
That's preparing for its final journey, its final journey

I gave you everything I had
My last tears, my eyes' pupils
My whole life I only knew
To pray for his protection, to pray for his protection

Cruel sea, pay for my efforts
Be merciful, protect him and return him
Cruel sea, even in your fury
Be merciful, to my only one

It's cold now under this sun
Stars prickle in the middle of the night
In vain I seek warm hands
To close my tired eyes, to close my tired eyes

You hold his golden hands tight
Where no light reaches
So that instead of some mermaid
You will be his black crab now, his black crab

Cruel sea, pay for my efforts
Be merciful, protect him and return him
Cruel sea, even in your fury
Be merciful, to my only one

Cruel sea
