Paroles et traduction Josipa Lisac - O Jednoj Mladosti

O Jednoj Mladosti

Jedna mladost, jedan svijet nade
Raste tiho u srcu tvom
Drugi za te ovaj svijet grade
S malo prave istine u tom

Pricaju ti price te
I svaka ima svoj sretan kraj
Al' presucuju da taj svijet krade
Bas tvog sunca sjaj

Jedna mladost, jedan san srece
Al' do nje jos dalek, dug put
I dok srce na svoj put krece
U taj svijet ocvao i zut

Odjednom ces shvatit sve
Kako nigdje nema plamena tvog
Poput mrtve rijeke svijet tece
Bez cilja svog

Tko zna, mozda na me ceka neki drugi svijet
Tko zna, i u mraku kadkad nikne divan cvijet
Mozda, tko zna, jedna od sretnih
Jedna od tisucu bit cu bas ja
Tko da zna

About One Youth

A youth, a world of expectations
Grows quietly in your heart
Others build this world for you
With little real truth in it

They tell you those stories,
And each has its happy end
Yet, they keep silent that this world steals
The very light of your sun

A youth, a dream of happiness
But the path to it is distant, long
And while your heart embarks on its journey
Into this world, blossomed and gold

All of a sudden, you will realize
How there's no flame of yours anywhere
The world flows as a dead river
Without its purpose

Who knows, perhaps a different world awaits me
Who knows, even in darkness, sometimes a marvelous flower sprouts
Perhaps, who knows, I'll be one of the lucky ones
I'll be one in a thousand, just me
Who knows
