Puna je života
She Is Full of Life
Puna je životahtjela bi da leti,negdje u visineu ljubavni ritam,no, ipak joj smeta,bračni zavjet sveti.Ja joj djelić tugesa obraza čitam.
She is full of life,she would love to flysomewhere to the heights,in love's rhythmic dance,but it holds her back,her holy marriage tie.A small trace of griefon her cheek meets my glance.
Osjećaje svojene mogu da svladam.Mene ista sudbasa tom ženom veže.Ona još i ne znada njoj pjesme pišem,dok me nježnom rukomu naručaj steže.
These feelings of mineI cannot subdue;the very same fatebinds us in its hold.She does not yet knowthat I write her poems,while with gentle handsshe draws me to her fold.
