Lyrics and translation Zdravko Čolić - Ruška

Ruška

Ruzice moja ruska
Zapet sam k'o puska
Sto mi ne dodjes?
Da s tobom malo budem
Da me mine stara zelja
Daj mi samo kap veselja!
Taj ti je drugi bolji
Bas po tvojoj volji
Sve ti kupuje
Ja samo jedno mogu
Kao nekad da ti pjevam
Imaj srca para nemam
Zar dijamanti il' brilijanti
O zar su tako vazni
Svi ti dragulji lazni
Kad volis nekoga
Koliko tebe ja?
Ruzice, ruzo ruska
Zrela si k'o kruska
Sve zbog tebe prodacu
Oko vrata amajliju staru
Samo ne gitaru
Ruzo ruska
Zapet sam k'o puska
Sve zbog tebe radicu
Danju nocu
I necu da biram
Samo da ti sviram
Ruzo ruska
Zrela si k'o kruska
Sve zbog tebe prodacu
Oko vrata amajliju staru
Samo ne gitaru

Rose

My Russian rose
I'm hooked like a gun
Why don't you come to me?
To be with you for a while
To make my old desire go away
Just give me a drop of joy!
That other guy is better
Just like you like it
He buys you everything
I can only do one thing
Sing to you like I used to
I have heart, I don't have money
Are diamonds or brilliants
Oh, are they so important?
All those fake jewels
When you love someone
As much as I love you?
My rose, my Russian rose
You're ripe like a pear
I'll sell everything for you
My old amulet around my neck
Just not my guitar
My Russian rose
I'm hooked like a gun
I'll work for you
Day and night
And I won't choose
Just to play for you
My Russian rose
You're ripe like a pear
I'll sell everything for you
My old amulet around my neck
Just not my guitar
