Lyrics and translation Rončević Hari - Getanin

Getanin

Tega san dana mrzija školu
Više san volija divit se moru
Otić marendat na Tomića stinu
I s dičjon mašton poć u daljinu

A tega dana život je propa
Čovik u veštitu od skupega štofa
Vika je, svitu tu su mi stvari
On ih je ukra, getanin mali

Osta san plačuć sidit na stini
Svu su mi boršu prosuli po rivi
Još i sad se sićan, vika je, prašće
Ako još nisi ukra, krašćeš

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san ovo mi činit ne smite
U bisu san reka da me se ostavi
I prvon ga stinon puka po glavi

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san, ovo mi činit ne smite
Zbunjen san gleda di leži u krvi
A svi su vikali to mu je tek prvi

Doma su došla dva policjota
Odma me odveli bez imalo mota
Mater je ostala plačuć na skali
Nesritno dite vika je stari

Gleda san mater i tija se vratit
Otac je reka da ću mu platit
Pita san, barba oće me bolit?
Reka je, getaru, ol znaš i molit

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san ovo mi činit ne smite
U bisu san reka da me se ostavi
I prvon ga stinon puka po glavi

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san, ovo mi činit ne smite
Zbunjen san gleda di leži u krvi
A svi su vikali to mu je tek prvi

Ako san getanin, ako san getanin i ja san dite

Nigdi je otišlo pola života
Otac je skonča, a mater sirota
Sama u tuzi se odala piću
Samo san doša da utrnen sviću

Nisan se više moga suzdržat
I bis u meni se počeja trzat
Dalje od svega san pokuša bižat
A slike su davno me počele stizat

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san ovo mi činit ne smite
U bisu san reka da me se ostavi
I prvon ga stinon puka po glavi

Ako san getanin i ja san dite
Vika san, ovo mi činit ne smite
Zbunjen san gleda di leži u krvi
A svi su vikali to mu je tek prvi

Getanin

That day I hated school
I'd rather gaze at the sea, my ghoul
Go picnicking on Tomića's cliff
And dream of distant lands with my diff

But that day, life fell apart
A man in an expensive suit, so smart
Yelled, "Hey, those are my things!"
He stole them, that little getanin

I sat on the cliff, weeping in vain
They spilled my lunch all over the terrain
I still recall his cries, "Forgive me, miss"
If you haven't stolen yet, you will, I wis

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you must be mild"
In my anger, I told him to leave me alone
And smacked him on the head with a big stone

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you mustn't be mild"
Confused, I watched him lying in his blood
And they all shouted, "This is just his first thud"

Two policemen came to my home
Took me away without a moan
My mother wept on the stairs
My unlucky child, she cries and glares

I watched my mother and them depart
Father said I'd have to pay for this smart
I asked, "Uncle, will it hurt?"
He said, "Getanin, do you know your prayers by heart?"

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you must be mild"
In my anger, I told him to leave me alone
And smacked him on the head with a big stone

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you mustn't be mild"
Confused, I watched him lying in his blood
And they all shouted, "This is just his first thud"

If I'm a getanin, if I'm a getanin, I'm still a child

Half my life is gone
Father is dead, and Mother's alone
She drowned her sorrows in drink
I've come to snuff out the wick

I couldn't hold back any longer
And the anger inside me grew stronger
I tried to run away from it all
But the memories kept calling

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you must be mild"
In my anger, I told him to leave me alone
And smacked him on the head with a big stone

If I'm a getanin, I'm still a child
I said, "This is wrong, you mustn't be mild"
Confused, I watched him lying in his blood
And they all shouted, "This is just his first thud"
