Paroles et traduction Dražen Zečić - E, moj ćaća

E, moj ćaća

E, moj ćaća, pamtim još i danas
Svaku tvoju, sve šta si nam priča
Kad si stiga u zadnjem vagonu
Ono veče, priko Perkovića
Čekali smo mater, braća i ja
Ja sve pamtim, mater jadna plače
Ti je grliš, pa braću i mene
Srića, tuga sve nikada jače
REF.
Učio si mene ćaća
Da se dobro, dobrim vraća
Ali nisi rekao mi to
Kako često samo dođe zlo
Di si bio, ja tek sada znadem
Šta si proša od nas, šta si krija
A materom si o tom često šapća
Da ne znamo za to braća i ja
Da su tukli, nikad reka nisi
Težak hod si pravda bolestima
Htio si nas učit samo dobro
Ali život svoje pute ima
REF.
Učio si mene ćaća
Da se dobro, dobrim vraća
Ali nisi rekao mi to
Kako često samo dođe zlo
Kako često samo dođe zlo

Oh, my dear father

Oh, my dear father, I still remember the day
Every word you spoke to us, every story you told
When you arrived on the last train car
That evening, across the Perković's
My brothers and I waited for our mother
I remember everything, our poor mother cries
You embrace her, then my brothers and me
Joy and sorrow, stronger than ever
REF.
My dear father, you taught me
That good is returned with good
But you never told me
How often evil just comes
Where have you been, I only know now
What you've been through, what you've hidden from us
But you whispered often about it
So that my brothers and I wouldn't know
That they beat you, you never told me
Your heavy stride is justified by illnesses
You only wanted to teach us good
But life has its own paths
REF.
My dear father, you taught me
That good is returned with good
But you never told me
How often evil just comes
How often evil just comes
