Saputnik

(original)
Na granici sam bio posle ponoći
Mrak je moja boja i tu nema pomoći
Carinik, jos dečak
Klimnuo mi glavom zvaničan i krut
I samo lupio pečat:
«Sve u redu, laku noć i sretan put»
Put se odmotava k’o dugi sivi šal
Sutra će se stare koke picnuti za bal
Takav dan se pamti
Petnaest godina u vetar poslatih
Dolaze svi maturanti
Al' će neki neke teško poznati
Dosadne proslave mi dođu kao kazna
Ali svejedno
Idem, možda najzad saznam:
Gde je moja Pegava?
Dugo me izbegava
Nije mi se javila, nikad više
Magija je prestala, negde mi je nestala
Kao leptiri pre kiše
Gde je moja Pegi Su?
«Nije ovde», rekli su
«Oni su odselili, nemoj zvati»
Ostao je samo lik, mali verni saputnik
Mali svitac srebrni, da me prati
Promiču dani kao jablani uz drum
Jutro već miriše na vanilu i na rum
Gde su?
Kako se drže?
Baš da vidim šta je s' dobrim đacima
Oni se potroše brže
Mi smo nekad bili generacija
(translation)
I was at the border after midnight
Darkness is my color and there is no help
Customs officer, still a boy
He nodded his head formal and stiff
And just broke the seal:
"All right, good night and happy journey"
The road unwinds like a long gray scarf
Tomorrow the old hens will be pissed off for the ball
Such a day is remembered
Fifteen years sent to the wind
All the graduates are coming
But some will find it difficult to know some
Boring celebrations come to me as punishment
But still
I'm going, maybe I'll finally find out:
Where is my Pegava?
He avoids me for a long time
She didn't call me, never again
The magic has stopped, I have disappeared somewhere
Like butterflies before the rain
Where's my Peggy Su?
"She's not here," they said
"They moved away, don't call"
All that remained was a character, a small faithful companion
Little silver lamp, to follow me
Days pass like apple trees by the roadside
The morning already smells of vanilla and rum
Where are they?
How are they holding up?
Just to see what happens to good students
They are consumed faster
We used to be a generation
