Lyrics of Vrtovi Malih Kuća - Arsen Dedic

Vrtovi Malih Kuća (original)

U sjeni ovog grada vrtovi mali žive
Oni su iza svega, na kraju perspektive
Od novina i ručka do kraja zadnje smjene
Samo se neba plave i vrtovi zelene
Samo se neba plave i vrtovi zelene
I oni koji žive u znoju svoga lica
Drijemat će poslije ručka u vrtu punom ptica
I bit će, jednom bit će, kad ostave te tačke
I jabuka za djecu i krtica za mačke
I jabuka za djecu i krtica za mačke
I stupati će skupa na svibanjskoj paradi
Milijun malih bašti za svakog koji radi
A kad se jednom smire i kad se jednom vrate
Trpeza bit će spremna uz gredicu salate
Trpeza bit će spremna uz gredicu salate
Blagovati će dugo ko poslije sviju kazni
Stolovi bit će puni, tramvaji bit će prazni…
I bit će, jednom bit će, u zoru jednog dana
Kad zahvate i sunce sa užetima krana
Kad zahvate i sunce sa uzetima krana

(translation)

In the shadow of this city small gardens live
They are behind everything, at the end of the perspective
From newspapers and lunch to the end of the last shift
Only the sky is blue and the gardens are green
Only the sky is blue and the gardens are green
And those who live in the sweat of their brow
He will take a nap after lunch in a garden full of birds
And it will be, it will be once, when they leave those points
And an apple for the kids and a mole for the cats
And an apple for the kids and a mole for the cats
And they will step together at the May parade
A million small gardens for everyone who works
And once they calm down and come back once
The table will be ready with a salad bed
The table will be ready with a salad bed
He will eat for a long time after all the punishments
Tables will be full, trams will be empty…
And it will be, once it will be, at the dawn of one day
When you catch the sun with crane ropes
When you catch the sun with a crane
