Paroles et traduction Djordje Balasevic - Maliganska

Maliganska

Zivot bas i nije Bog zna sta
Al' za svaki slucaj
Uvek uzmem sta mi da
Frtalj 'leba, metar neba
I pun sesir sna
Al' djavo gleda
Da i njemu bude fino
Pa katkad sav taj dzumbus
Umoci u vino

Ref.
Dajte mi vino, vino nek se toci
Dok traju dani, a narocito noci
Jer tu je tuga
Ta moja verna druga
A kad je tuga
Onda treba da se cuga

Dajte mi vino
Ja nemam drugih zelja
Ni blizeg roda, ni boljih prijatelja
Jer tu je tuga
Ta moja crna kuga
A kad je tuga
Onda mora da se cuga

Srecu sam ko rukav izvrto
S vrha brda svaka staza vodi nizbrdo
Malo ko je, cedo moje, tome izvrdo
Ali kad cugnem, ja lakse misli sredim
Znam, tu sam 'di sam
Al' bar se manje jedim

Ref.

S jeseni, kad bagrem opadne
Potera me maler, stagod pocnem propadne
Jos mi se u inat
Ta sto ne sme dopadne
E stara boljka se leci starim lekom
Dabome vinom, ta ne bi valjda mlekom

Maliganska

Life is not so much a big deal
But just in case
I always take what it gives me
A chunk of bread, a yard of sky
And a hat full of dreams
But the devil is watching
To make sure he's having fun too
So sometimes he dips all that stuff
In wine

Ref.
Give me wine, let the wine flow
While the days last, and especially the nights
Because there is sadness there
My faithful companion
And when there is sadness
Then it's time to chug

Give me wine
I have no other desires
No closer family, no better friends
Because there is sadness there
My black plague
And when there is sadness
Then it's time to chug

I turned happiness inside out like a sleeve
From the top of the hill, every path leads downhill
Few have, my dear, resisted that
But when I chug, I can think more clearly
I know where I am
But at least I eat less

Ref.

In the autumn, when the Judas tree leaves fall
The painter's muse haunts me, everything I do fails
To spite me
Even what I'm not supposed to like
That old disease is cured the old-fashioned way
Wine, of course, not milk
