Ne plači!
Don't Cry!
Ne prosipaj biser očinjega vida,jer me suza tvoja na obrazu peče.Plakao bih i ja, ne mogu od stida,zato su mi boli u grudima veće.
Do not spill the pearls that well up from your eyes,for your tear upon my cheek burns me to the core;I would weep as well, but shame holds back my cries,and so the pain within my breast is all the more.
Nasmiješi se malo kad si pokraj mene.Da nam slatka ljubav kao rijeka teče.Zaboravi tugu i te bolne sjene.Neka bude više u životu sreće.
Smile a little bit whenever you're with me,so that our love may, like a river, sweetly flow.Forget the grief, those painful shadows: let them be,and let more happiness come to us as we go.
Kad nisi kraj mene, srce mi se kida.Nikada te nitko jače voljet neće.Ne prosipaj suze, biser očnog vida.Neka bude divno, za nas ovo veće.
When you're not beside me, my heart is torn and sighs;no one else will ever love you more than I do.Do not spill your tears, those pearls from your dear eyes,and let this evening be a wonder for us two.
