Posljednji cjelov
The Last Kiss
Srušila se zemlja jedne crne noći.Pod nogama mojim kad si rekla zbogom,i da nikad više ti mi nećeš doći.Zar, zaista, više neću biti s tobom?
The ground gave way beneath my feet one pitch-black night,the night you said goodbye to me, and told me toothat you would never come again into my sight.Can it be true that I'll no longer be with you?
One bolne noći, ti nisi ni znala.U naručju mome milim si me zvala.I posljednji cjelov kada si mi dala:iz tužnoga oka suza ti je pala.
That painful night, you did not know the end was near;held in my arms, you called me "darling", called me "dear";and when you gave me the last kiss, I saw appearout of your mournful eye a falling tear.
Oh, kako je sada tiho oko mene:ni poj ptica više ne čujem k'o prije.Od ljubavi naše ostale su sjene!U srcu mi čemer k'o u kotlu vrije.
Oh, how silent everything is now for me:I hear the birds no more the way I used to do.Of all our love, it's only shadows that I see!My heart's a cauldron where the bitter sorrows brew.
Kroz moj bolni život ti si prošetala.Poljupcima vrelim rane si vidala.Milujući tebe sreća mi je sjala,sada sa mog neba zvijezda je nestala.
Through my life of pain you strolled along your way;with burning kisses you would heal my wounds each day;caressing you, my joy shone bright as the sun's ray;now from my sky a star has vanished clean away.
