Translation of the song lyrics Ne Mogu Ti Reći Što Je Tuga - Nina Badrić, Hari Mata Hari

Ne Mogu Ti Reći Što Je Tuga (original)

Davno je to nekad bilo
kad je procvalo cvijeće ocvalo.
Najljepša si tada bila,
sad se ne sjećam kojeg proljeća.
I k’o da uzalud borim se.
Prerano za te rodih se.
Ref.
Ne mogu ti reći šta je tuga,
uzmi mi za zlo, al' mi vjeruj to.
Ja sam jednog gospodara sluga,
pa mi duša posti, pa mi duša posti
od tebe, cvijete rosni.
Da je meni da me budi
zveket dukata s tvoga prsluka,
pa da sebi sudim
što zavoljeh te, što razboljeh se.
I k’o da uzalud borim se.
Prekasno za te rodih se.
Ref.
Ne mogu ti reći šta je tuga
uzmi mi za zlo, al' mi vjeruj to.
Ja sam jednog gospodara sluga,
pa mi duša posti
od tebe, cvijete rosni.
Ne mogu ti reći šta je tuga,
uzmi mi za zlo, al' mi vjeruj to.
Ja sam jednog gospodara sluga,
jedna ruka prosi, druga blago nosi,
a u duši mira nema.

(translation)

It used to be a long time ago
when the flowers bloomed bloomed.
You were the most beautiful then,
now I don't remember which spring.
And it's as if I'm fighting in vain.
I was born too early for you.
Ref.
I can't tell you what sadness is,
take me for evil, but believe me.
I am a master's servant,
so my soul fasts, so my soul fasts
from you, dew flowers.
That it's up to me to wake me up
the sound of ducats from your vest,
so let me judge myself
because I loved you, because I got sick.
And it's as if I'm fighting in vain.
I was born too late for you.
Ref.
I can't tell you what sadness is
take me for evil, but believe me.
I am a master's servant,
so my soul fasts
from you, dew flowers.
I can't tell you what sadness is,
take me for evil, but believe me.
I am a master's servant,
one hand begs, the other bears treasure,
and there is no peace in the soul.
