Текст и перевод песни Oliver Dragojevic - Bila Je Jesen

Bila Je Jesen

Bila je jesen i brijest zanesen
Nad ruzičnjakom stada
Biješe manevar trka kroz ševar
I miris vinograda
I ti u lozi u griješnoj pozi
Sa vinjagama kika
O breskve glatke
O, riječi slatke
Ko zrela tamljanika

Negdje su rikali bikovi od gvožđa
I netko pisaše krvlju po svom rupcu
A mi smo sisali zlatno puce grožđa
Ko da je svijeta spas u nasem poljupcu

Bila je jesen i brijest zanesen
I mi na zlatnoj brezi
Žesće no ikad sa svih čuvika
Kliktahu mitraljezi
Proljeće sad je
Laste i cvijeće i premda drugu volim
Tu sliku žarku
San ili varku nikako da prebolim

Bila je jesen jesen...

It Was Autumn

Autumn it was and the elm carried away
Above the flocks in the rose garden
Maneuvers through the bulrush
And the smell of vineyards
And you in the vine in a sinful pose
With a bunch of grapes
Oh smooth peaches
Oh, sweet words
As ripe blackberries

Somewhere the iron bulls were roaring
And someone was writing in blood on his handkerchief
And we were sucking the golden navel of the grape
As if the salvation of the world were in our kiss

Autumn it was and the elm carried away
And we on the golden birch
More fiercely than ever from all the nails
The machine guns were clicking
Spring is now
Swallows and flowers and although I love another
That radiant image
A dream or a mirage I cannot overcome

Autumn it was autumn...
