Requiem(original) |
Kad god prođem ulicom, sa tvojim imenom |
Pomislim na onu pesmu… |
Već je godinama ne pevam |
Stari refren nikom ne treba |
A ljudi pesme, kratko pamte |
Komandante… |
Ostaće u knjigama i priča o nama: |
Balkan krajem jednog veka |
Svako pleme crta granicu |
Svi bi hteli svoju stranicu… |
Tope se snovi kao sante |
Ej Komandante… |
Na barikadama, su opet zastave |
Svet ide, k’o na praznike |
I decu izvode, s' jutarnje nastave |
Da vide, gladne radnike… |
A gde smo mi, naivni |
Što smo se dizali na «Hej Sloveni»? |
Kao da smo uz tu priču izmišljeni (i prevareni…) |
Vremena su nezgodna, za momka kao ja |
Koji gleda svoja posla… |
Nisam lutak da me naviju |
Imam samo Jugoslaviju… |
Sve druge baklje, bez mene plamte |
E Komandante… |
I svi su tu, da dobiju na toj lutriji… |
Na barikadama, su uvek najbrži |
Al' nikad i najmudriji |
I kad god prođem ulicom, sa tvojim imenom |
Pomislim na Panta rei… |
Baciće se, tako, neki lik |
Kamenom i na tvoj spomenik |
Jer sve se menja |
I sve teče… Čoveče |
(translation) |
Whenever I walk down the street, with your name on it |
I think of that song… |
I haven't sung it in years |
Nobody needs an old chorus |
And people remember the song for a short time |
Commander… |
Stories about us will remain in the books: |
The Balkans at the end of a century |
Each tribe draws a line |
Everyone would like their page… |
Dreams melt like snowdrops |
Hey Commander… |
At the barricades, there are flags again |
The world is going on like a holiday |
They also take the children out of the morning classes |
To see, hungry workers… |
And where are we, naive |
What did we get on "Hey Slavs"? |
It's as if we were made up (and deceived uz) with that story |
Times are awkward, for a guy like me |
Who looks after his business… |
I'm not a puppet to be cheered on |
I only have Yugoslavia… |
All the other torches, without me, are burning |
E Commander… |
And everyone is there to win the lottery… |
At the barricades, they are always the fastest |
But never the wisest |
And whenever I walk down the street, with your name on it |
I think of Panta rei… |
That's how a character will be cast |
With a stone and on your monument |
Because everything is changing |
And everything flows… Man |
