Paroles et traduction Đorđe Balašević - Naposletku...

Naposletku...

Naposletku,
Ti si dobro znala ko sam ja
Otkud sad te suze, moja mila
Rekla si da se za točak
Bršljan ne hvata
Zalud izgužvana svila

To je tako
Ne pravi od tuge nauku
Mami svetlo na sledećem bregu
Okopniće moj otisak
Na tvom jastuku, još kako
Kao jezuška u snegu

Razbiću gitaru
Crn je mrak ispunjava
Odavno se svoje pesme bojim
Pomera u meni neke gene Dunava
Pa ja tečem i kad stojim

Ali opet, da l′ bi ikad
Bila moja ti
Da sam vojnik u armiji ljudi
Rekla si
Da baš ne umem novce brojati
I da je ništa sve što nudim

Naposletku, ti si navek
Znala da sam svirac
Brošić što se teško pribada
Da me može oduvati najblaži nemirac
Da ću u po' reči stati
Da se neću osvrtati, nikada

Ređaš po vitrini fini, porculanski svet
Al′ ja sam figurica bez žiga
Pazi, to je bajka
Što ti pada na pamet
Fali ti baš ovaj cigan
Ne, dušo

Tek u jesen otkriju se
Boje krošanja
Sve su slične u leto zeleno
Naposletku, ti si dobro znala
Ko sam ja
Čemu suze, lepa ženo

Draga moja, ti si navek znala
Da sam pajac
Moj je šešir šatra pomična
Usne, tice-rugalice
A u oku tajac
Da sam kaput sa dva lica
Da sam Gospo'n propalica obična

Naposletku, ti si navek znala
Da sam svirac
Da je nebo moja livada
Da me može oduvati
Najblaži nemirac
Da ću u po' reči stati
Da se neću osvrtati, nikada

Da ću u po′ reči stati
Da se neću osvrtati

At Last...

Finally,
You knew well who I am
Where do these tears come from, my darling
You said that ivy
Doesn't grow on a steering wheel
Crushed silk in vain

That is so
Don't make a science out of sadness
Beckon the light to the next shore
My imprint will fade
On your pillow, of course
Like a snowflake in the snow

I will smash my guitar
The black darkness fills it up
I have been afraid of my songs for a long time
It moves some Danube genes in me
So I flow even when I'm standing still

But then again, would you ever
Be my girl
If I were a soldier in the army of men
You said
That I just can't count money
And that everything I offer is nothing

Finally, you have always
Knew I'm a musician
A brooch that is hard to pin
The mildest breeze can blow me away
I'll stop in mid-sentence
I will never look back, never

You arrange fine, porcelain world in the showcase
But I am a figurine without a stamp
Be careful, that's a fairy tale
That comes to your mind
You are missing exactly this gypsy
No, darling

Only in autumn the colors
Of crochet are revealed
All of them are similar in the green summer
At last, you knew well
Who I am
Why the tears, beautiful woman

My dear, you always knew
That I'm a clown
My hat is a mobile tent
Lips, mockingbirds
And a jester in the eye
I am a coat with two faces
I am God, a failed ordinary man

Finally, you have always known
That I'm a musician
That the sky is my meadow
That the mildest breeze can
blow me away
I'll stop in mid-sentence
I will never look back, never

I will stop in mid-sentence
I won't look back
