Vrati mi poljupce
Give Me Back My Kisses
Jednom u nekomkafiću smo bili.Rekla si!Ni osmijeha mi ne daš,cicija si, mili.Reci, voljena!Kada sam ti slatkuljubav uskratio?Zar ti nisam nježnamilovanja dao?Zar ti nisam poljubac,poljupcem platio?Za tople pogledeljubit sam te znao.Za svaki tvoj poljubac,po dva sam ti dao.Reci!Zašto šutiš,zar me ne čuješ?Tisuću poljubaca,ti meni, duguješ.
Once, at some café,we sat for a while.You said!"You're a miser, my darling:you won't spare me a smile."Tell me, beloved!When have I everkept sweet love away?Did I never give youa tender caress or two?Did I not, for a kiss,with a kiss repay?For your warm glancesI would kiss you anew.For every single kiss,I gave two back to you.Tell me!Why so silent,can you not hear?A thousand kissesyou owe me, my dear.
