Ona je volela bluz - Đorđe Balašević перевод на английский

Ona je volela bluz

Ona je volela bluz
Njen kralj zvao se Peter Green
A ja sasvim slučajno tu
Za taj film neko levi sasvim

Uvek je gledala sat
I čim sklope kazaljke krug
K'o mala bi šaputala tad
Da negde neko misli na nju

U njenoj sobi mala riznica greha
Kao duga preko besmisla most
Puno knjiga nekog prebeglog Čeha
I sportska štampa ako naiđe gost

Uglavnom prođe sve
Ali ostane bluz
Boje se razliju
Kad ga čujem na radiju

Ubija metronom
šta taj sat radi tu
Jedan i nula pet
Neko misli na nju

Negde u meni je kvar
I mrak što me gricka k'o miš
I sav sam kao ona staklena stvar
U kojoj veje kada je pomeriš

U ovoj sobi ravnoteža je prosta
Sto i krevet i prekidač za luč
Ispod cene mole cenjenog gosta
Da pre puta ne zaboravi ključ

Uglavnom prođe sve
Ali ostane bluz
Boje se razliju
Kad ga čujem na radiju

Ona je volela bluz o-je
Lucidni Peter Green
A ja, ja sam voleo nju
A bluz, šta bluz
Nemam ništa sa tim

She Loved the Blues

She loved the blues
Her king was named Peter Green
And I was there quite by chance
For that film, someone completely left

She always watched the clock
And when the hands closed the circle
She'd whisper like a little girl
That someone, somewhere was thinking of her

In her room, a small treasure trove of sin
Like a bridge across the nonsense
Lots of books by some escaped Czech
And sports press if a guest comes by

Mostly everything passes
But the blues remains
The colors blend
When I hear it on the radio

The metronome kills
What's that clock doing there?
One fifteen
Someone's thinking of her

Somewhere in me there's a fault
And a darkness that nibbles at me like a mouse
And I'm all like that glass thing
In which the wind blows when you move it

In this room, the balance is simple
A chair, a bed, and a light switch
They beg the valued guest
Not to forget the key before leaving

Mostly everything passes
But the blues remains
The colors blend
When I hear it on the radio

She loved the blues oh yes
Lucid Peter Green
And I, I loved her
But the blues, what about the blues?
I have nothing to do with that
