Lyrics and translation Hari Mata Hari - Sarajevo

Sarajevo

Stari snijeg je pao s' krova
U dnu bašte cvijeta zova
Kako to da sada ostavim

Kriva šljiva, sva behara
Siva kiša, ljubav stara
Kako to da sve zaboravim

Jer nigdje nije moguće
Da je ljepše je neg' kod kuće

Sarajevo, moj je dom
Ovdje dišem dušom svom
Kada odem sve me boli tu unutra

Sarajevo, bol je moj
Bog je rek'o, "Ovdje stoj
Ovdje moraš ostariti sa mnom sutra"

Ovaj pohabani grad
Samo tu sam vječno mlad
Kako to da sada ostavim

Volim ovo nebo plavo
Volim čuti, zdravo, zdravo
Kako to da sve zaboravim

Jer nigdje nije moguće
Da je ljepše je neg' kod kuće

Sarajevo, moj je dom
Ovdje dišem dušom svom
Kada odem sve me boli tu unutra

Sarajevo, bol je moj
Bog je rek'o, "Ovdje stoj
Ovdje moraš ostariti sa mnom sutra"

Sarajevo, moj je dom
Ovdje dišem dušom svom
Kada odem sve me boli tu unutra

Sarajevo, bol je moj
Bog je rek'o, "Ovdje stoj
Ovdje moraš ostariti sa mnom sutra"

Sarajevo

Old snow is falling from the roof
In the bottom of the garden elderflower is blooming
How is it that now I should leave

Crab apple, all in blossom
Gray rain, old love
How is it that all of this I should forget

Because nowhere is it possible
To be more beautiful than at home

Sarajevo, my home
Here I breathe with my whole soul
When I leave, everything hurts me here inside

Sarajevo, my sorrow
God has said, "Here stand still
Here you must grow old with me tomorrow"

This weary city
Only here am I eternally young
How is it that now I should leave

I love this blue sky
I love to hear, hello, hello
How is it that all of this I should forget

Because nowhere is it possible
To be more beautiful than at home

Sarajevo, my home
Here I breathe with my whole soul
When I leave, everything hurts me here inside

Sarajevo, my sorrow
God has said, "Here stand still
Here you must grow old with me tomorrow"

Sarajevo, my home
Here I breathe with my whole soul
When I leave, everything hurts me here inside

Sarajevo, my sorrow
God has said, "Here stand still
Here you must grow old with me tomorrow"
