Текст и перевод песни Djordje Balasevic - Kad Odem......

Kad Odem......

Kad odem,
Kad me djavo isprati glavnim sokakom,
I kad mesecina zaveje moj trag,
Nemoj tugovati,
Jer jednom svakom mali nemi slavuj
Doleti na prag

Kad odem,
Kad zamumla vetar zimske ocenase,
I kad mrtvo lisce
Potera u kas
Za kaznu prognace i tamburase
Zbog pogresne pesme u pogresan cas

Hej, budi jaka ti,
Najlakse je plakati
To nam samo Gospod
Svira jesenju sonatu
Snio sam vrata
U tom suvom zlatu
Strah me da prodjem,
Al′ proci cu

Znam, lav si stari ti,
Nemoj sve pokvariti,
Kresni samo jednu svecu
Na Svetog Jovana,
I ne cuvaj dugo
Pepeo tih dana.
Kad jednom odem, a poci cu

Kad odem,
Kad u prozor stavis prvu hrizantemu,
I kad popucaju divlji kesteni,
Ne pali uzalud fenjer na tremu
Kad me otmu magle jedne jeseni

When I Die......

When I die,
When the devil sends me down the main street,
And when the moonlight blows away my trail,
Don't grieve,
Because at some point everyone gets a little nightingale
That flies to their doorstep

When I die,
When the wind whispers winter prayers,
And when dead leaves
Get swept into the bin
They punish the tamburines for
Singing the wrong song at the wrong time

Hey, be brave you,
Crying is the easy way out
It's only the Lord
Who plays us the autumn sonata
I dreamed of a door
In that dry gold
I'm afraid to go through,
But I will

I know, you're a lioness,
Don't ruin everything,
Just light a candle
On Saint John's Day,
And don't hold on to
The ashes of those days for long.
When I die, and I will

When I die,
When you put the first chrysanthemum by the window,
And when the wild chestnuts bud,
Don't light the porch lamp in vain
When the fog takes me one autumn
