Текст и перевод песни Zabranjeno Pusenje - Srce, Ruke, Lopata

Srce, Ruke, Lopata

Domovina naša je rodila
Hiljade i hiljade junaka
Jedan od tih delija
To je moj komšija Avdija
Nije bio on niti bombaš
Nije bio on niti sportista
Sve što je imao od oružja
To su srce, ruke i lopata
Zemlja je bila srušena
Valjalo se dizati iz pepela
Radio je tada Avdija
K'o što radi deset armija
Jednog je dana, 23. oktobra
Zlatna znaèka udarna
Zasjala na njegovim grudima
Dugo æe se sjeæati Avdija
Tog jesenjeg podneva
Dugo će se sjećati
Riječi jednog od drugova:
"Ti si naš ponos, Avdija,
Ti si naš ponos k'o zastava"
Našla se i slika njegova
Usred fabričkih novina
Njegov je dan udaran
A njegov san je
Hiljadu tona za jedan dan
Dođoše nova vremena
Izgubi se negdje Avdija
Zaboravili smo svi na njega
Imamo dovoljno bagera
Samo ponekad
Pred prvi maj
Zovne ga direktor osnovne
Da uveliča proslave
Priča anegdote i podvige
Tog dana Avdija
Pokupi plakete i ordenje
U okićenom razredu
Počasno mjesto zauzme
Prije nego pred klince izađe
Koju ljutu popije
Kao pjesnik što ne vjeruje
U vlastite stihove

Heart, Hands, Shovel

Our homeland has borne
Thousands and thousands of heroes
One of those warriors
Is my neighbor Avdija
He wasn't a bomber
He wasn't an athlete
All he had for weapons
Was his heart, hands, and shovel
The land was destroyed
It was time to rise from the ashes
Avdija worked then
Like ten armies
One day, October 23rd
A golden badge of honor
Shone on his chest
Avdija will remember for a long time
That autumn afternoon
He will remember for a long time
The words of a comrade:
"You are our pride, Avdija,
You are our pride, like the flag"
A picture of him was found
In the middle of the factory newspaper
His day is a workday
And his dream
Is a thousand tons in one day
New times came
Avdija disappeared somewhere
We all forgot about him
We have enough excavators
Only sometimes
Before May first
The director of the elementary school calls him
To enhance the celebration
He tells anecdotes and exploits
That day Avdija
Collects plaques and medals
In the decorated classroom
He takes the place of honor
Before he goes out to the children
He drinks a strong one
Like a poet who doesn't believe
In his own verses
