Текст и перевод песни Vlado Kreslin - Če Bi Midva Se Kdaj Srečala

Če Bi Midva Se Kdaj Srečala

If Only We Could Meet

Če bi midva se kdaj srečala,

If only we could meet,

V kratki zgodbi,

In a short story,

Premajhni za dva,

Too small for two,

če bi midva se kdaj srečala,

if only we could meet,

Kot roman, ki se srečno konča.

Like a novel that ends happily.

Enkrat ob petih popoldne

Once at five in the afternoon

Tam dol pred bifejem,

Down there in front of the bar,

Takrat, ko se služba konča,

That time when work ends,

V tistem črnem kostimu in petkah,

In that black suit and heels,

Lahkotne, kot srna bi mimo prišla.

Light as a deer you would pass by.

Če bi midva se kdaj srečala

If only we could meet,

In bi muzika špilala,

And the music would play,

če bi midva se kdaj srečala,

if only we could meet,

Tisti večer, usoda za oba.

That evening, destiny for us both.

Ti bi v kotu sedela

You would sit in a corner

Z najboljšo prijatelj'co,

With your best friend,

Pila bi tonik in gin,

You would drink tonic and gin,

Mi pa še en dodatek,

We another addition,

In folk ves navdušen,

And the people all enthusiastic,

Jaz pa neroden in fin.

I awkward and polished.

Če bi midva se kdaj srečala,

If only we could meet,

A bi bil ta osamljen večer?

But would this evening be lonely?

Če bi midva se kdaj srečala,

If only we could meet,

A imela bi sina, a hčer?

Would you have a son, a daughter?

A bi zdajle pel

Would I be singing now

Ta samotni napev,

This lonely melody,

Tole majceno pesem za dva,

This tiny song for two,

Bi se zunaj temnilo in rahlo sivilo
