Translation of the song lyrics Lunjo... - Đorđe Balašević

Lunjo... (original)

Lunjo, moj stari kofer opet miriše na sive ceste
A tvoja soba na mandarine i pržen kesten
I toplo je tu, tu ispod tvog krova
O, dobro je tu, u zamku iz snova, pa sretna ti nova
Lunjo, sad ću ti reći i više nikom i više nikad:
Svako je od nas ponekom sličan al' ti si unikat
Pročitaš me, znam, od slova do slova
Prećutiš to, znam, k’o pametna sova, pa sretna mi nova
Ti uvek znaš najbolji način
S' tobom lako stižem na tron
Ti si ta nit, taj retki začin
Koji daje poseban ton
Ti si mali čarobnjak
Koji donosi spas
A svi ti pajaci na pokretnoj traci
Nek žure bez nas
Lunjo, ako me traže, ti slaži da sam odavno mrtav
Spusti roletne i navij sat na sredu, četvrtak
A napolju mraz i magla i zima
A napolju mrak al' ovde sve štima, od kad tebe imam
Ti uvek znaš najlepše reči
Ti čak i ćutiš tiše od svih
Ti imaš smeh, koji sve leči
Ti od psovke načiniš stih

Lunjo... (translation)

Lunjo, my old suitcase smells of gray roads again
And your room on tangerines and roasted chestnuts
And it's warm here, under your roof
Oh, it's good here, in the dream trap, so happy new one
Lunjo, now I will tell you to no one again and never again:
Each of us is similar in some ways, but you are unique
You read me, I know, letter by letter
You keep it quiet, I know, like a smart owl, so happy new one
You always know the best way
I can easily ascend the throne with you
You are that thread, that rare spice
Which gives a special tone
You're a little wizard
Which brings salvation
And all those spiders on the treadmill
Let them hurry without us
Lunjo, if they look for me, you agree that I have been dead for a long time
Lower the blinds and wind the clock on Wednesday, Thursday
And outside, frost and fog and winter
And it's dark outside, but everything is fine here, since I've had you
You always know the most beautiful words
You are even quieter than everyone
You have laughter, which heals everything
You make a verse out of swearing
