Lyrics of O Jednoj Mladosti - Josipa Lisac

O Jednoj Mladosti (original)

Jedna mladost, jedan svijet nade
Raste tiho u srcu tvom
Drugi za te ovaj svijet grade
S malo prave istine u tom
Pricaju ti price te
I svaka ima svoj sretan kraj
Al' presucuju da taj svijet krade
Bas tvog sunca sjaj
Jedna mladost, jedan san srece
Al' do nje jos dalek, dug put
I dok srce na svoj put krece
U taj svijet ocvao i zut
Odjednom ces shvatit sve
Kako nigdje nema plamena tvog
Poput mrtve rijeke svijet tece
Bez cilja svog
Tko zna, mozda na me ceka neki drugi svijet
Tko zna, i u mraku kadkad nikne divan cvijet
Mozda, tko zna, jedna od sretnih
Jedna od tisucu bit cu bas ja
Tko da zna

(translation)

One youth, one world of hope
It grows quietly in your heart
Others are building this world for you
With a little real truth in that
They tell you stories
And each has its own happy ending
But they judge that the world is stealing
Just shine on your sun
One youth, one dream of happiness
But there is still a long way to go
And while the heart is on its way
Yellow also blossomed into that world
You will suddenly understand everything
How there is no flame of yours anywhere
Like a dead river the world flows
Without your goal
Who knows, maybe another world is waiting for me
Who knows, even in the dark sometimes a beautiful flower sprouts
Maybe, who knows, one of the lucky ones
One in a thousand will be me
Who knows
