Lyrics and translation Baja Mali Knindza - Daleko Je Sana River

Daleko Je Sana River

Imali smo grad i rijeku
Rodne kuce i ognjista
Imali smo sve na svijetu
Sada, brate, nidje nista
Imali smo sve na svijetu
Sada, brate, nidje nista
Odnio nas divlji vjetar
Kao pljevu, kao iver
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river
Otisli smo, ostala si
Iz tudjine sta ti reci
Nasa tuga postala si
Ispod mosta sto ce teci
Nasa tuga postala si
Ispod mosta sto ce teci
Odnio nas divlji vjetar
Kao pljevu, kao iver
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river
Vidio sam mnoge rijeke
U snovima i na javi
Al' nijedna kao Sana
Niti tece, nit se plavi
Al' nijedna kao Sana
Niti tece, nit se plavi
Odnio nas divlji vjetar
Kao pljevu, kao iver
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river
Boli srce, boli dusa
Daleko je Sana river

Daleko Je Sana River

We built the city and the river
Homes of our kin and blazing hearths
We possessed all the world could ever give
Now, darling, nothing at all is left
We possessed all the world could ever give
Now, darling, nothing at all is left
The violent winds have chased us away
Like chaff, like dust, we are dispersed
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
We have left and you remain
What news can I send from exile's shore?
You have become our sorrow's refrain
Beneath the bridges that will flow forevermore
You have become our sorrow's refrain
Beneath the bridges that will flow forevermore
The violent winds have chased us away
Like chaff, like dust, we are dispersed
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
I have seen many rivers
In dreams and in waking hours
But none compare to the Sana
Her waters neither flow nor shimmer
But none compare to the Sana
Her waters neither flow nor shimmer
The violent winds have chased us away
Like chaff, like dust, we are dispersed
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
My heart aches, my soul grieves
Distant now is the Sana River
