Lyrics and translation Hari Mata Hari - Ćilim

Ćilim

Nekad je znalo tako
Puhnuti jugo jako
I donjet' miris mora
Ispod prozora u stari park

A jablan sav od snijega
Sam na vrhu brijega
Okupan zlatnom bojom
Dok za sobom sunce vuče mrak

U mome oku ima sive, ima plave
Ima kamena i neba
Al' u mom srcu ima vatre
I za hladne noći ako treba

Te oči plave kada vide mene
Vide ćilim šareni
A ja te volim jer takvi kakvi jesmo
Jedno za drugo smo stvoreni

Nekad je znala tako
Doći ljubav lako
Al' k'o da ima krila
Vrat se nestane u trenu

Mor'o sam čekat dugo
Tebe, ma kog bi drugog
Jer samo jednom čovjek u životu
Sretne takvu ženu

U mome oku ima sive, ima plave
Ima kamena i neba
Al' u mom srcu ima vatre
I za hladne noći ako treba

Te oči plave kada vide mene
Vide ćilim šareni
A ja te volim jer takvi kakvi jesmo
Jedno za drugo smo stvoreni

Te oči plave kada vide mene
Vide ćilim šareni
A ja te volim jer takvi kakvi jesmo
Jedno za drugo smo stvoreni

Te oči plave kada vide mene
Vide ćilim šareni
A ja te volim jer takvi kakvi jesmo
Jedno za drugo smo stvoreni

Carpet

It used to blow so
The wind from the south, so strong
And bring the scent of the sea
To the old park beneath my window

And the apple tree laden with snow
Alone on the hilltop
Bathed in golden light
As the sun set behind, drawing darkness near

In my eyes there's grey and there's blue
There's stone and there's sky
But in my heart, there's a fire burning
To warm those cold nights, if need be

Those blue eyes, when they see me
They see a carpet of colors
And I love you, for we are as we are
Made for each other, meant to be

It used to come so easily
To find love and breeze
But as if it had wings
In an instant, it would vanish

I had to wait so long
For you, or anyone at all
For only once in a lifetime does a man
Meet a woman such as you

In my eyes there's grey and there's blue
There's stone and there's sky
But in my heart, there's a fire burning
To warm those cold nights, if need be

Those blue eyes, when they see me
They see a carpet of colors
And I love you, for we are as we are
Made for each other, meant to be

Those blue eyes, when they see me
They see a carpet of colors
And I love you, for we are as we are
Made for each other, meant to be

Those blue eyes, when they see me
They see a carpet of colors
And I love you, for we are as we are
Made for each other, meant to be
