Lyrics and translation Viktorija Kulisic - Đenka

Đenka

Đenka je plakala, kad su je poveli
Rukom je mahnula i oči sakrila
Đenku su vjenčali za momka bogata
Da sve zaboravi za niske dukata
Da sve zaboravi za niske dukata

Šta će mi dukati kad mladost nestaje
U srcu ranjenom tuga ne prestaje
Svi bijeli jastuci, marame svilene
Šta će mi dukati kad on nije kraj mene
Šta će mi dukati kad on nije kraj mene

Stigli su snjegovi, zaspali šorovi
U rano svitanje Đenku su pronašli
U snijegu dubokom, u bijeloj haljini
U ruci ledenoj cvjetovi vjenčani
U ruci ledenoj cvjetovi vjenčani

Šta će mi dukati kad mladost nestaje
U srcu ranjenom tuga ne prestaje
Svi bijeli jastuci, marame svilene
Šta će mi dukati kad on nije kraj mene

Što vrijede dukati kad on nije kraj mene

Genka

Genka was crying when they took her away
She waved her hand and hid her eyes
Genka was married to a rich guy
To forget everything for cheap money
To forget everything for cheap money

What good is money when my youth is gone
In my wounded heart, the sadness won't stop
All the white pillows, silken handkerchiefs
What good is money when he's not by my side
What good is money when he's not by my side

The snow has come, the fields are asleep
At dawn, Genka was found
In the deep snow, in a white dress
In her cold hand, the wedding flowers
In her cold hand, the wedding flowers

What good is money when my youth is gone
In my wounded heart, the sadness won't stop
All the white pillows, silken handkerchiefs
What good is money when he's not by my side

What's the use of money when he's not by my side
