Lyrics and translation Đorđe Balašević - Poluuspavanka




Poluuspavanka
Half-Lullaby
Hej, otkači šlepove!
Hey, untie the boats!
Nanišani jutro i pusti tu stvar neka klizi
Cherished morning and let that thing slide
Postoje kod Amera reči za to:
There are words for that in America:
"Take it easy", lutko lepa
"Take it easy", beautiful doll
Zrela se breskva nebom cepa
A ripe peach splits the sky.
U kosu me zadeni
Hit me in the hair
K'o malenu sedefnu šnalu me skri iza temena
You are my small, mother-of-pearl clasp, hide me behind the crown of my head
Svi satovi svemira žure
All the clocks of the universe are in a hurry
Mi imamo vremena, puna kapa
We have a full hat of time
Noć i nas dvoje, stara klapa
The night and the two of us, the old trap
Nije ovo uspavanka
This is not a lullaby
Pesma gnjavanka
Song of complaints
Buenas noches ciquita
Buenas noches chiquita
To smo smislili vrag i ja
The devil and I came up with this
To je magija
It's magic
Tajni prolaz kroz noć
A secret passage through the night
Baš polaze galije
The galleys are just leaving
Do vina i maslina
To the wine and olive groves
'Ajmo malo na jug Italije
Let's go to the south of Italy
Zatvori oči
Close your eyes
U tajnoj sam misiji!
I'm on a secret mission!
Moj dom je tek maleni svitac na nebeskoj pučini
My home is just a small scroll on the heavenly waters
A ja sam na ovoj planeti
And I am on this planet
Da sretnom te učinim, spavaj samo
To make you happy, just sleep
Ne znaju oni šta mi znamo
They don't know what we know
Nije ovo sweet baby dream
This is not a sweet baby dream
Glupi evergreen
A silly evergreen
Nema ljutnje Sinatra
Sinatra is not angry
Ova pesma te voli sva
This song loves you all
To je molitva
It's a prayer
Za još jedan lep san
For another beautiful dream
O, ne boj se granica i naslovnih stranica
Oh, don't be afraid of borders and title pages
Nema tih glupih stanica
There are no such stupid stations
Na putu do jutra
On the way to the morning
Nije ovo uspavanka
This is not a lullaby
Pesma gnjavanka
Song of complaints
Buenas noches chiquita
Buenas noches chiquita
To smo smislili vrag i ja
The devil and I came up with this
To je magija
It's magic
Tajni prolaz kroz noć
A secret passage through the night
Baš polaze galije do vina i maslina
The galleys are just leaving to the wine and olive groves
'Ajmo malo na jug Italije
Let's go to the south of Italy
Zatvori oči
Close your eyes
