Croatian

Jos i danas zamirisi tresnja

Jos i danas zamirise tresnja
u proljece kao davno prije
jedna tresnja danima daleko
tamo gdje me vec odavno nije

Rekao sam kad poci sam mor'o
uzmite mi i kucu i njivu
samo tresnju ostavite staru
kad navratim da je vidim zivu

Ref.
Sta to ima u ljudima tuzno
da ulaze u tudje zivote
tko to zivi u proslosti mojoj
a jos nije umro od sramote

Rekao sam u vjetar sam pric'o
nikog nije bilo da me cuje
lijepu pjesmu ne voli bas svatko
neko baca kamen na slavuje

Ref.

Nije nebo ovo sto vam nude
nije sunce od zlata i moci
kad bi mogli prodali bi Boga
njima niko ne moze pomoci

English

and today still the cherry tree smells

and today still the cherry tree smells
in the spring like long time before
one cherry tree, days far away (from long ago)
there where I am not anymore

I said when I had to go:
take my house and field
only leave the old cherry tree
when I come back to see it alive

Ref.
what is that in the people sadness
to get in someone else's lives
who is living in my past
and still haven't died from shame

I said I spoke to the wind
there was nobody to hear me
not everyone loves beautiful song
and some throw a stone on a nightingale

Ref.

It's not a sky this what they are offering to you
it's not the sun from gold and power
when they could, they would sell God
No one can help them
