Paroles et traduction Dino Merlin - Baška Ti

Baška Ti

Okraća ljubav kao sve druge
Velike stvari **
Izgori kao dozreo, siv pepeo
Na cigari
Navikne čovjek da sve
Vremenom izgubi sjaj
Navikne čovjek da sve
Ima početak i kraj
Baška ti *
Baška sve što su oči gledale po svijetu
Baška ti
Baška sve što su ruke grlile u letu
Šta sam to mislio ja, žrtva iluzija
Kad si rekla da je kraj
Da je ljubav kutija što se vremenom
Baci u kraj
Donesu godine znak
Da više nisi jak
Kažu mi gdje si i s kim
Al′ ja se ne mirim sa tim
Baška ti
Baška sve što su oči gledale po svijetu
Baška ti
Baška sve što su ruke grlile u letu
Baška ti baška sve na svijetu...
* Prije svega ti
** na stih Emily Dickinson

Apart from you

Love gets shorter like everything else
Great things **
It burns out like ripe, grey ash
On a cigarette
A man gets used to losing everything
Its shine over time
A man gets used to everything
Having a beginning and an end
Apart from you *
Apart from everything my eyes have seen in the world
Apart from you
Apart from everything my arms have embraced along the way
What did I think I was, a victim of illusions
When you said it was over
That love is a box that after some time
Is discarded
The years show their mark
That you are no longer strong
They tell me where you are and with whom
But I do not accept that
Apart from you
Apart from everything my eyes have seen in the world
Apart from you
Apart from everything my arms have embraced along the way
Apart from you apart from everything in the world...
* Above all, you
** after an Emily Dickinson quote
