Paroles et traduction Amadeus Band - Lipa Stara

Lipa Stara

Boze, znas li kako lepa je???
Bilo cija srecna neka je!
Kada nju mi neko spomene,
Skupim usne rec da sakrijem.
Usne cute, suze govore!
Ispred kuce lipa stara.
Jedino je ona znala
Da mi prica pricu o nama,
Kako nezno si me ljubila,
Al′ je lipa sa mnom uvela!
Kao zeljnoj majci dete da ga zagrli,
Kao ptici mrva hleba da je nahrani,
K'o jedincu rod rodjeni kada zafali
- Tako meni treba, duso, tvoje ljubavi!
Sad u kuci nikog nema
Da mi staru majku cuva.
Kada skupim hladne dlanove
Nikog nema da ih ugreje.
Sliku gledam da me miluje!
Kao zeljnoj majci dete da ga zagrli,
Kao ptici mrva hleba da je nahrani,
K′o jedincu rod rodjeni kada zafali
- Tako meni treba, duso, tvoje ljubavi!

Lipa Stara

My God, do you know how beautiful she is???
May she be someone else's happiness!
When someone mentions her to me,
I purse my lips to hide my words.
My lips are silent, but my tears speak!
There is an old linden tree in front of the house.
She is the only one who knows
How to tell me the story of us,
How tenderly you loved me,
But the linden tree has withered with me!
Like a longing mother to embrace her child,
Like a bird to a crumb of bread to feed it,
Like an only child to his parents when he fails
- That's how I need your love, my soul!
There is no one in the house now
To look after my old mother.
When I gather my cold hands
There is no one to warm them.
I look at your picture so that it caresses me!
Like a longing mother to embrace her child,
Like a bird to a crumb of bread to feed it,
Like an only child to his parents when he fails
- That's how I need your love, my soul!
