Текст и перевод песни Đorđe Balašević - Backi Kanal

Backi Kanal

Bogu fala, noć je zvezdana,
Dok malenom lađom brodarim.
Od Bečeja pa do Bezdana,
Velikim Kanalom.
Ja sam ovaj vek odvojio,
Da ti služim i gospodarim.
Staru robu sam raskrojio,
Ne šali se šalom.
Plava sokla i biber crep,
Ume život da bude lep
Da smo zdravi i da je nama ljubavi,
(Da je nama ljubavi)
Nema se kad za žaliti,
Nemoj se sad uspaliti,
E, Moja Ti, nemoj da Ti moram faliti.
Dokle ćeš se samo srditi,
To što radis već sramota je.
Dokle će te mati grditi,
Što bez posta postiš.
Besno baš uz kanal širiš veš,
Tvoj bicikli pokraj plota je.
Ajde, pogledaj me ako smeš,
Nije red, da prostiš.
Plava sokla i biber crep,
Ume život da bude lep
Da smo zdravi i da je nama ljubavi,
(Da je nama ljubavi)
Nema se kad za žaliti,
Nemoj se sad uspaliti,
E, Moja Ti, nemoj da Ti moram faliti.
Mesec ko oreol s fresaka,
Na reveru srce, kao broš.
Kućica u senki bresaka,
Ne znam šta bi htela još,
Ajmo sad
Plava sokla i biber crep,
Ume život da bude lep
Da smo zdravi i da je nama ljubavi,
(Da je nama ljubavi)
Nema se kad za žaliti,
Nemoj se sad uspaliti,
E, Moja Ti, nemoj da Ti moram faliti.
Nema se kad za žaliti,
Nemoj se sad uspaliti,
E, Moja Ti, nemoj da Ti moram faliti.

Backi Kanal

Thanks to the Lord, the night is starry,
As I navigate my small boat.
From Bečej to Bezdana,
Along the Grand Canal.
I set aside this age,
To serve and be your master.
I've cut out the old garments,
Don't jest with a scarf.
Blue socks and a bib,
Knowing how to make life beautiful,
For our health and the love we share,
(The love we share)
There's no time for regrets,
Don't get upset now,
My dear, don't make me have to scold you.
How long will you keep sulking,
What you're doing is a disgrace.
How long will mother scold you,
For fasting without a purpose.
You angrily spread laundry by the canal,
Your bike is by the fence.
Come on, look at me if you dare,
It's not right, you should forgive.
Blue socks and a bib,
Knowing how to make life beautiful,
For our health and the love we share,
(The love we share)
There's no time for regrets,
Don't get upset now,
My dear, don't make me have to scold you.
The moon, like a halo from a fresco,
On my lapel, a heart, like a brooch.
A small house in the shade of peach trees,
I don't know what else you could want,
Come on now
Blue socks and a bib,
Knowing how to make life beautiful,
For our health and the love we share,
(The love we share)
There's no time for regrets,
Don't get upset now,
My dear, don't make me have to scold you.
There's no time for regrets,
Don't get upset now,
My dear, don't make me have to scold you.
