Translation of the song lyrics Balkanski tango - Đorđe Balašević

Balkanski tango (original)

Ovaj život je san…
Mala kuća kraj rampe… Snop žućkaste lampe… I zalihe tuge…
Nažalost, ružan san…
Ćale notorni smuk… Keva s daskom za luk… Manekeni za jad…
Sve je morao sam…
Prst na orozu lagan… U srcu uragan… I skok preko duge…
Brum šlepera…
I sa dvadeset dve već je imao sve… Nju je video tad:
Lud sam za tobom, pače, ali lud sam ionako…
Tražim te otkako za sebe znam…
Budi moj ortak, mače, nije mi lako
da svu tu silnu lovu razbucam sam…
Nešto sam načuo da sutra možda ne postoji?
Pa bolje da odmah probamo sve…
Za sitan groš kupi me… Razmaži te divlje kupine…
Lud sam za tobom, ali ovo jeste vreme ludih…
I ja ću za nas osedlati strah…
A ti me ljubi do zla… Dok ne izgubim dah…
A ona… Seoski krin…
Noćni bus iz provanse… «Miss Nikakve Šanse»… Tek statista sreće…
Presečen film…
Ćale, prosvetni miš… Keva, izlizan pliš… Sestra ružna ko vrag…
On je bio njen tip…
Prve noći u dvosed… Pa druge na trosed… A treće… eh, treće…
Nek puknu svi…
Kad je njen mladi Don spusti pravo na tron… Kao višnju na šlag…
Lud sam za tobom, paše, ali lud sam ionako…
Tražim te otkako za sebe znam…
Budi moj ortak, mače, nije mi lako
da svu tu silnu lovu razbucam sam…
Nešto sam načuo da sutra možda ne postoji?
Pa bolje da odmah probamo sve…
Za sitan groš kupi me… Razmaži te divlje kupine…
Lud sam za tobom, ali ovo jeste vreme ludih…
I ja ću za nas osedlati strah…
A ti me ljubi do zla… Dok ne izgubim dah…
Opet loš deja vu…
Jutro mokro ko ribar… I profi kalibar… Počinilac neznan…
U čitulji…
Pune stranice dve… Mafija… I DB… Složno žale za njim…
Balkanski Tango uvek završi na trotoaru…
Đavo je kredom upisao bod… A ona lagano niz ulicu staru…
Tražeći sponzora punog ko brod…
Dok klatno tašnice u ritmu hoda broji vreme
i dok je merkaju ko sveži but…
U beli prah smrvi dan… I mrmlja refren odnekud znan:
Lud sam za tobom, ali ovo jeste vreme ludih…
Za nas ću za nas osedlati strah…
A ti me ljubi do zla… Dok ne izgubim dah…

Balkanski tango (translation)

This life is a dream…
A small house by the ramp… A beam of yellowish lamps… And supplies of sorrow…
Unfortunately, an ugly dream…
Dad notorious downhill… Keva with bow board… Models for misery…
He had to do everything himself…
Finger on a light weapon… Hurricane in the heart… And jump over the rainbow…
Truck truck…
And at twenty-two he already had everything… He saw her then:
I'm crazy about you, duck, but I'm crazy anyway…
I've been looking for you since I know myself…
Be my partner, kitty, it's not easy for me
to squander all that huge money myself…
I heard something that maybe doesn't exist tomorrow?
So we better try everything now…
For a penny buy me… Spread those wild blackberries…
I'm crazy about you, but this is a time of crazy…
And I will saddle fear for us…
And you love me to evil… Until I lose my breath…
A ona… Seoski krin…
Night bus from Provence… "Miss No Chance"… Just a statistician of happiness…
Cut film…
Daddy, the educational mouse… Keva, worn plush… Sister ugly as hell…
He was her type…
The first night in a two-seater… Then the second on a three-seater… And the third… eh, the third…
Let everyone break…
When her young Don lowered the right to the throne… Like a cherry on whipped cream…
I'm crazy about you, Pasha, but I'm crazy anyway…
I've been looking for you since I know myself…
Be my partner, kitty, it's not easy for me
to squander all that huge money myself…
I heard something that maybe doesn't exist tomorrow?
So we better try everything now…
For a penny buy me… Spread those wild blackberries…
I'm crazy about you, but this is a time of crazy…
And I will saddle fear for us…
And you love me to evil… Until I lose my breath…
Bad deja vu again…
Morning wet as a fisherman… I pro caliber… Perpetrator unknown…
In the obituary…
Full pages two… Mafia… I DB… Unanimously mourn for him…
Balkan Tango always ends on the sidewalk…
The devil wrote a point with chalk… And she slowly down the old street…
Looking for a sponsor full like a ship…
While the pendulum of the purse counts time in the rhythm of walking
and while they measure her like a fresh leg…
The day crumbles into white powder… And he mutters a refrain from somewhere known:
I'm crazy about you, but this is a time of crazy…
I will saddle fear for us…
And you love me to evil… Until I lose my breath…
