I nikad se neću vratit
And I will never go back
u svoj rodni grad
To my home town
tamo me ne čeka niko
No one is waiting for me there
i već odavno su izblijedila sva lica
And all faces are long gone from my memory
i već odavno imena i mi ne znam
And their names are long gone too
samo ponekad zimi
Only at times, in winter
sjetih se tebe
I remember you
tebe moja bivša draga
You, my former love
neke nježnosti davne
Some old sentiments
nešto mi šapne u srcu i znam
Something whispers in my heart and I know
da sam na svijetu sam
That I’m all alone in this world
i da te ponovo vidim
Even if I see you again
šta bih ti o sebi mogao reći
What could I tell you about myself?
osim da sam sreo mnogo ljudi
Except that I met many people
a da ni prijatelj nije bio nijedan
And that no one was my friend
i da sam bio
And that I was
i gladan i slavan i veseo i placan
Hungry and famous and cheerful and lachrymose
i da me ljubilo mnogo žena
And that many women have kissed me
a da nijednu volio nisam
But I didn’t love any of those
nešto mi šapne u srcu i znam
Something whispers in my heart and I know
da sam na svijetu sam
That I’m all alone in this world
moja draga moja draga
My former love, my former love
i evo umoran starac sam sad
And here, I’m a tired, old man now
mada izgledam mlad
Although I look young
