My only daughter

Serbian

Ceri Jedina

Jos uvjek vidim njen lik
jos uvjek cujem njen glas

ostavi me cerka jedina
a nije imala ni pet godina

jos cujem kako mi kaze
tata mnogo me boli
stegni me cvrsto za ruku
u oki vtra mi gori
there is a flame in my eye

nedaj me tata
("Don't give me (to them) daddy")
because I am still young (small)
It will be morning again
don't let my heart stop

stojim kraj mezara njenog
i ruze procvale nisu

i srce moje je uvenulo
sunce sjati je prestalo
izdrzati dugo necu moci
za cerkom cu uskoro poci

sta ce mi zivot bez nje
s njom sam izgubijo sve

i zato nedaj me tata
jer jos sam mala

x4
It will be morning again
don't let my heart stop

English

I still love her countenance
I can still hear her voice

My only dughter has left me
she was not even five years old

I can still hear how she says
dady, it hurts me strongly
hold my hand tightly
u oku mi vatra gori

Don't let them take me away (from you) daddy
jer jos sam mala, x4
opet ce jutro da svane
nedaj da srce mi stane

I stand next to her grave
and the roses haven't bloomed

and my heart has wilted
the sun stopped shining
I will not persist for a long time
I'll come after my daughter

What is my life without her
I lost everything losing her

So don't let them take me away daddy
because I am still young

opet ce jutro da svane
nedaj da srce mi stane
