Текст и перевод песни Ibrahim Bilčević - Otac

Otac

Noćima sam, umornog te
Na namazu zaticao, a u sabah
Zori ranoj sikirom si šaputao
Da odgojiš evlad to si uz Božiju pomoć htio.
Da ti djeca sita budu, Gospodaru si dovio
Serdžada se istanjila na kojoj si Rabba zvao,
A ti budi od robova što je Allah odabrao
Da u aršaf hladu budu kad ne bude drugog hlada
I da budeš sa sretnima gdje no selam vječni vlada
Aaaaaaaa
Nikad ti se ja ne mogu, aman nikad odužiti
Te žuljevite ruke tvoje neću znati izljubiti,
A i ja sam otac sada što sudbinu tvoju kuša.
Pa znoj lijem zbog evlada, dok zikirom šapće duša.
2x Serdžada se istanjila na kojoj si Rabba
Zvao, pa ti budi od robova što je Allah odabrao.
Da u aršaf hladu budu kad ne bude drugog hlada
I da budeš sa sretnima gdje no selam vječni vlada

Father

At night, I would find you tired
At prayers, and in early dawn
You'd whisper with the saw
That you wanted to raise children with God's help.
You prayed to the Lord that your children would be full
Your prayer rug became thin from calling on God
And you became one of the servants whom Allah has chosen
To be in the cool shade of the shroud when there is no other shade
And to be with the happy ones where eternal peace reigns
Aaaaaaaa
I can never repay you, never,
I can't kiss your calloused hands,
And I'm a father now, who knows your destiny.
So I sweat for my children, while my soul whispers the zikr.
2x Your prayer rug became thin from calling on God
And you became one of the servants whom Allah has chosen.
To be in the cool shade of the shroud when there is no other shade
And to be with the happy ones where eternal peace reigns
V.S
