Translation of the song Ako me ostaviš artist Mišo Kovač
Ako me ostaviš
If you leave me
Samo jednom ljubav pokuca na vrata,
Only once in life, love knocks at your door
Da te rani čežnjom i gorčinom,
to torture you with longing and hurting
Da te vodi ko' pticu bez jata,
to lead you astray, like a bird without its flock
Da te tješi vinom.
to comfort you with wine.
Samo jednom ljubav pokuca na vrata,
Only once life love knocks at your door
Da ti pruži snove i ljepotu,
to offer you dreams and beauty
Da ti stavi okove od zlata,
to give you golden handcuffs
Jednom u životu...
once in life
Ako me ostaviš, kad poželiš kraj,
If you leave me, when you start longing for the end
I nebo će plakati, izgubit će sjaj.
Even the skies will cry, they'll lose their shine
Ako me ostaviš, ne ruši drugo sve,
If you leave me, don't tear down everything
Pusti da vjerujem da voljela si me.
Leave me with to believe, that you once loved me
Samo jednom ljubav pokuca na vrata,
Only once life love knocks on your door
Da ti pruži snove i ljepotu,
to offer you dreams and beauty
Da ti stavi okove od zlata,
to give you golden handcuffs
Jednom u životu...
once in life
Ako me ostaviš, kad poželiš kraj,
If you leave me, when you start longing for the end
I nebo će plakati, izgubit će sjaj,
Even the skies will cry, they'll lose their shine
Ako me ostaviš, ne ruši drugo sve,
If you leave me, don't tear down everything
Pusti da vjerujem da voljela si me.
Leave me with the belief, that you once loved me
