Текст и перевод песни Đorđe Balašević - Kad Odem......

Kad Odem......

Kad odem
Kad me đavo isprati, glavnim sokakom
I kad mesečina zaveje moj trag
Nemoj tugovati, jer jednom svakom
Mali nemi slavuj doleti na prag

Kad odem
Kad zamumla vetar zimske očenaš
I kad mrtvo lišče potera u kas
Za kaznu prognače i tamburaše
Zbog pogrešne pesme, u pogrešan čas

Hej, budi jaka ti
Najlakše je plakati
To nam samo Gospod svira
Jesenju sonatu

Snio sam vrata u tom suvom zlatu
Strah me da prođem, al′ proći ču

Znam, laf si stari ti
Nemoj sve pokvariti
Kresni samo jednu sveču
Na svetog Jovana

Ne čuvaj, dugo pepeo tih dana
Kad jednom odem, a poči ču

Kad odem
Kad u prozor staviš prvu hrizantemu
I kad popucaju divlji kesteni
Ne pali uzalud, fenjer na tremu
Kad me otmu magle jedne jeseni

Hej, budi jaka ti
Najlakše je plakati
To nam samo Gospod svira
Jesenju sonatu

Snio sam vrata u tom suvom zlatu
Strah me da prođem al' proči ču

Znam, laf si stari ti
Nemoj sve pokvariti
Kresni samo jednu sveću
Na svetog Jovana

Ne čuvaj, dugo pepeo tih dana
Kad jednom odem, a poći ču

Kad jednom odem

When I Go Away.......

When I go away
When the devil escorts me through the main street
And when the moonlight covers my tracks
Don't mourn, for someday everyone
A little silent nightingale will come

When I go away
When the wind murmurs winter's paternosters
And when the dead fox runs into the shed
As punishment, he will chase away the tamboura players
For the wrong song, at the wrong time

Hey, be strong, you
It's easiest to cry
That's just the Lord playing us
Autumn sonata

I dreamed of a door in that dry gold
I'm afraid to cross it, but I will

I know, you're an old grump
Don't spoil everything
Just light one candle
On St. John's Day

Don't keep the ashes of those days for long
When I'm gone, I'll rest

When I go away
When you put the first chrysanthemum in the window
And when the wild chestnuts crack
Don't light the lantern on the porch in vain
When autumn's fogs take me away

Hey, be strong, you
It's easiest to cry
That's just the Lord playing us
Autumn sonata

I dreamed of a door in that dry gold
I'm afraid to cross it, but I will

I know, you're an old grump
Don't spoil everything
Just light one candle
On St. John's Day

Don't keep the ashes of those days for long
When I'm gone, I'll rest

When I'm gone
