Lyrics and translation Miroslav Škoro - Otvor´ žemo kapiju




Otvor´ žemo kapiju
Open the Gate, My Dear
Od Požege i Županje, sve do Vukovara
From Požega and Županja, all the way to Vukovar
Nema nigdje ovakih bečara.
There are no wretches like us anywhere.
Od Požege i Županje, sve do Vukovara
From Požega and Županja, all the way to Vukovar
Nema nigdje ovakih bečara.
There are no wretches like us anywhere.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo mene i mojih pajdaša.
Here I am with my comrades.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo mene i mojih pajdaša.
Here I am with my comrades.
Mi smo momci veseli srce naše tuče
We are merry lads, our hearts beat fast
K'o kad žica na tamburi puče.
Like a string snapping on a tambourine.
Mi smo momci veseli srce naše tuče
We are merry lads, our hearts beat fast
K'o kad žica na tamburi puče.
Like a string snapping on a tambourine.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo mene i mojih pajdaša.
Here I am with my comrades.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo mene i mojih pajdaša.
Here I am with my comrades.
Kad se kuci vracamo probudimo pjetle
As we return home, we wake the roosters
Cjelim putem krijesnice nam svijetle
Fireflies light our way.
Kad se kuci vracamo probudimo pjetle
As we return home, we wake the roosters
Cjelim putem krijesnice nam svijetle
Fireflies light our way.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo mene i mojih pajdaša.
Here I am with my comrades.
Otvor' ženo kapiju, man' se očenaša
Open the gate, my wife, let me in to say my prayers
Evo sa mnom mojih tamburaša.
Here I am with my fellow musicians.
I donesi rakiju neka caše zveče
Bring us some brandy, let the glasses jingle
Pa nek pisma šokačka poteče
And let the local liquor flow.
