Текст и перевод песни Zdravko Čolić - Smijem Se Bez Smisla

Smijem Se Bez Smisla

Činilo se noćas da si opet ovdje
I da te ljubim kao što sam znao
Htio sam da pitam otkuda se vraćaš
I nježan da budem, i otrovan, zao

Htio sam da priznaš da ti je sad žao
I da me kô nekad opet voliš malo
A onda se jutro razlilo po nama
I sve se u meni prekinulo, stalo

Uzalud se budim, ponovo je veče
U bučnome stanu neki čudni ljudi
Piju moje vino, govore o tebi
Nemarno, bez srca, pripiti i ludi
I ja nešto glumim, smijem se bez smisla
Pobjednik u laži i putnik bez cilja
A znam da je lakše kada nikog nema
Plakao bih glasno, zaspao od vina
Ovako u gužvi smijem se bez smisla

Činilo se noćas da si opet ovdje
I da te ljubim kao što sam znao
Htio sam da pitam otkuda se vraćaš
I nježan da budem, i otrovan, zao

Htio sam da priznaš da ti je sad žao
I da me kô nekad opet voliš malo
A onda se jutro razlilo po nama
I sve se u meni prekinulo, stalo

I Laugh Meaninglessly

It seemed tonight that you were here again
And that I kissed you as I used to
I wanted to ask where you were returning from
And to be tender, and venomous, and cruel

I wanted you to admit that you're sorry now
And that you love me again, even a little, like you used to
But then morning spilled over us
And everything inside me broke off, stopped

I wake up in vain, it's evening again
Some strange people in a noisy apartment
They drink my wine, they talk about you
Carelessly, heartlessly, tipsy and crazy
And I pretend something, I laugh meaninglessly
A winner in lies and a traveler without a destination
And I know it's easier when there's no one around
I would cry loudly, fall asleep from wine
Like this, in the crowd, I laugh meaninglessly

It seemed tonight that you were here again
And that I kissed you as I used to
I wanted to ask where you were returning from
And to be tender, and venomous, and cruel

I wanted you to admit that you're sorry now
And that you love me again, even a little, like you used to
But then morning spilled over us
And everything inside me broke off, stopped
