Lyrics and translation Tomislav Ivcic - Kućo Stara

Kućo Stara

Dilili smo nekoć i lipe i grube
Pa smo se razišli ka rakova dica
Vrime je na nama iskušalo zube
život nas je uvik ka figure mica

Al se ipak digod uželimo lica
Matere i oca vratimo se škoju
Pa se onda opet tragom ludih ptica
Zaputimo svitom svak na bandu svoju

Kućo stara kućo stara
Kućo stara posrid mista
Kad nas sve na svitu
Svitlo tvoje uvik blista kućo stara

Kućo stara kućo stara
Tvoji zidi tvoje škure
Moči vrime zibju ure
Kućo lipa kućo moja kućo stara

Mirisi ditinjstva nikad se ne gube
Iznova se uvik svak doma iskrca
Tragove u nama dokle vrime dube
Gorimo ka žiža na lanterni srca

Sputao nas život jače od kadene
Svakog on upregne u svoja kolica
Ma nas uvik nešto vuče i pokrene
Vratimo se škoju skrušeni ka dica

Old House

We used to be nimble and strong
And then we went our separate ways like crab children
Time has tried our teeth
Life has tossed us around like figurines

But sometimes we crave the faces
Of our mother and father, and we return home
And then we follow the trace of crazy birds
And set out into the world, each to our own band

Old house, old house
Old house in the middle of the town
When everything in the world fails us
Your light always shines, old house

Old house, old house
Your walls, your cracks
Time erodes you, the hours sway you
Beautiful house, my house, my old house

The scents of childhood are never lost
We always return home, anew
The traces in us, where time digs
We burn like the flame in a lantern, our hearts

Life has shackled us more tightly than chains
It harnesses each of us to its cart
But something always pulls us and moves us
We return home, contrite like children
