Četrdeseta - Duško Kuliš перевод на английский

Četrdeseta

Sinoć kad je spustio se mrak
Pala zvijezda, Bog mi poslo znak
Nemoj više čekati na nju
Zaspala je na tuđem ramenu

Evo sunca, sviće novi dan
Odoh ja, nadam se u raj
Staro društvo nek' me ne čeka
Gori svijeća, moja utjeha

Pitaju me kada odem ja
Ko da pije, ko da zapjeva
Zar je mojoj sreći sudila
Ona što mi dušu proklela
Šta će braća kada odem ja
Još mi nije četrdeseta
Zar je mom životu sudila
Nevjernica što me proklela

Zar je mojoj sreći sudila
Ona što mi dušu proklela
Šta će braća kada odem ja
Još mi nije četrdeseta
Zar je mom životu sudila
Nevjernica što me proklela
Zar je mom životu sudila
Nevjernica što me proklela

The Fortieth

Last night when darkness fell around
A star fell, God sent me a sign
Don't wait for her anymore, my friend
She fell asleep on another man's shoulder

Here's the sun, a new day breaks
I'm leaving, hoping for paradise
Let my old friends not wait for me
A candle burns, my only solace

They ask me when I'm gone
Who will drink, who will sing
Did she really seal my fate
The one who cursed my soul
What will my brothers do when I'm gone
I'm not even forty yet
Did she really seal my life's fate
The faithless woman who cursed me

Here's the sun, a new day breaks
I'm leaving, hoping for paradise
Let my old friends not wait for me
A candle burns, my only solace

They ask me when I'm gone
Who will drink, who will sing
Did she really seal my fate
The one who cursed my soul
What will my brothers do when I'm gone
I'm not even forty yet
Did she really seal my life's fate
The faithless woman who cursed me
Did she really seal my life's fate
The faithless woman who cursed me
