O jednoj mladosti

Jedna mladost, jedan svijet nade
Raste tiho u srcu tvom
Drugi za te ovaj svijet grade
S malo prave istine u tom
 
Pričaju ti priče te
I svaka ima svoj sretan kraj
Al' prešućuju da taj svijet krade
Baš tvog sunca sjaj
 
Jedna mladost, jedan san sreće
Al' do nje još dalek, dug put
I dok srce na svoj put kreče
U taj svijet ocvao i žut
 
Odjednom ćeš shvatit sve
Kako nigdje nema plamena tvog
Poput mrtve rijeke svijet teče
Bez cilja svog
 
Tko zna, možda na me čeka neki drugi svijet
Tko zna, i u mraku kadkad nikne divan cvijet
možda, tko zna, jedna od sretnih
Jedna od tisuću bit ću baš ja
Tko da zna

About One Youth

One youth, one world of hope
Is growing silently in your heart
Others are building this world for you
With a little truth in it
 
They are telling you these stories
And each of them has it's happy ending
But they are not telling you that that world is stealing
Exactly the glow of your sun
 
One youth, one dream of happiness
But there's still a far, long road to reach it
And while the heart is setting off on its journey
Into that world overblown and yellow
 
Suddenly you will realise everything
That there's nowhere your flame
Like a dead river the world flows
Without its goal
 
Who knows, maybe some other world is awaiting for me
Who knows, and in the dark sometimes a beautiful flower springs
Perhaps, who knows, one of lucky ones
one of thousand, it will be (exactly) me
Who is to know
