Svirajte mi Jesen Stize Dunjo Moja - Đorđe Balašević перевод на английский

Svirajte mi Jesen Stize Dunjo Moja

Toga jutra sam stigao putničkom klasom
Pa kući sa stanice časom kroz bašte i prečice znane
A u vojsci sam stekao druga do groba
I hronićnu upalu zgloba, suvenir na stražarske dane
Ušao sam na prstima
Mati beše već budna i brzo se prekrstila
Reče: "Prošlo je ko za čas"
"Baš si stigao dobro jer svatovi su tu do nas"
"Pa će ti svirati a ti ćeš birati"
Svadba beše ko svadba i šta da se priča
Parada pijanstva i kiča i poznata cura u belom
Već po redu poželeh im zdravlja i sreće
Iz ruku mi otela cveće i sakrila pogled pod velom
Tad me spaziše Cigani
Kum je tražio pesmu al′ ja sam stig'o, briga njih
Širok osmeh i zlatan zub
Znam da nije ti lako al′ danas nemoj biti grub
Nego zapovedi šta ćemo svirati
Svirajte mi jesen stiže dunjo moja, jesen rana
Nek zazvone tambure u transu
Znam da nije pesma ova za veselje i svatovac
Al' ja moram čuti tu romansu
Svirajte mi jesen stiže dunjo moja, al' polako
Da mi ne bi koja reč promakla
Sklonte čaše i bokale
Razbio bi svet od šale
Da je samo slučajno od stakla, dunjo moja
Retko odlazim kući al′ pišem još ređe
I slike su bleđe i bleđe
Pa lepe potiskuju ružne
Al′ nekad poručim piće i tako to krene
Pa stignem u svatove njene
Sve prave su ljubavi tužne
Nikom ne pričam o tome
Brzo dođe taj talas i znam da ću da potonem
Spas mi donose cigani
Oni imaju srce za svakog od nas, briga njih
Oni me pitaju, šta da sviraju
Svirajte mi jesen stiže dunjo moja, jesen rana
Pa nek' zazvone tambure u transu
Znam da nije pesma ova za veselje i svatovac
Al′ ja moram čuti tu romansu
Svirajte mi jesen stiže dunjo moja, polagano
Da mi ne bi koja reč promakla
Sklon'te čaše i bokale
Razbio bi svet od šale
Da je samo slučajno od stakla, dunjo moja

Play Autumn is Coming, My Darling

That morning I arrived in economy class
Then home from the station I strolled through gardens and familiar shortcuts
And in the army I made a lifelong friend
And chronic inflammation of the joints, a souvenir from my days as a guard
I entered on tiptoe
Mother was already awake and quickly crossed herself
She said: "Time has flown by"
"You've come just in time because the wedding guests are here"
"And they're going to play for you and you're going to choose"
The wedding was like any other wedding, what can I say
A parade of drunkenness and kitsch and a familiar girl in white
In turn, I wished them health and happiness
She took the flowers from my hands and hid her eyes under her veil
Then the Gypsies spotted me
The best man asked for a song but I'd just arrived, they didn't care
A broad smile and a golden tooth
I know it's not easy for you but don't be rude today
Just tell us what we should play
Play Autumn is Coming, My Darling, early autumn
Let the tamburines ring out in ecstasy
I know this isn't a song for merrymaking and wedding guests
But I have to hear this ballad
Play Autumn is Coming, My Darling, but slowly
So that I don't miss a single word
Put away the glasses and goblets
I'd smash the world to pieces in jest
If only it were made of glass, my darling
I rarely go home but I write even less often
And the pictures are paler and paler
So the beautiful ones push out the ugly ones
But sometimes I order a drink and it all starts again
And I end up at her wedding
All true loves are sad
I don't tell anyone about it
The wave comes quickly and I know I'm going to drown
The Gypsies bring me salvation
They have a heart for every one of us, they don't care
They ask me what to play
Play Autumn is Coming, My Darling, early autumn
Let the tamburines ring out in ecstasy
I know this isn't a song for merrymaking and wedding guests
But I have to hear this ballad
Play Autumn is Coming, My Darling, slowly
So that I don't miss a single word
Put away the glasses and goblets
I'd smash the world to pieces in jest
If only it were made of glass, my darling
