Translation of the song Djevojka u crnini artist Oliver Dragojević

Croatian

Djevojka u crnini

English translation

The Girl in Black

Ti što sama lutaš u crnini

You, wandering alone dressed in black

Kao sjena

Like a shadow

Ispod ovog sivog neba

Underneath this gray skies

Pred oluju što se sprema

Before the upcoming storm

Dal' u tebi bura bjesni

Is there a bora raging inside you

Il’ tišina mučna vlada?

Or heavy silence reigns inside you?

Da crninom bol svoj kriješ

When you hide your pain with black1

Osamljena, tako mlada

Alone, so young

Reci meni - samotniku

Tell me - a loner

Što u susret tebi ide

Heading your way

Dal' u liku mome mogu

Can my appearance reflect

Tvoje boli da se vide

Your pain?

Pruži ruku mojoj ruci

Reach with your hand to my hand

Da put jedna drugoj kaže

So they can show the way to each other

Pustom stazom uporedo

Going next to one another over a lonesome path

Prema cilju kojeg traže

Towards the goal they are looking for

Prema cilju izgubljenom

Towards a goal that was lost

Negdje prije jedne sreće

Some time a happiness ago

Izgubljenom kao bljesak

Lost like a flash

Što se više vratit neće

That will never come back again

Pruži ruku samotniku

Give your hand to the loner

Možda ćemo neke noći

Maybe one night

Kad utihne cvrkut zvijezda

When stars' chirping stops

Novom cilju skupa poći

We will head towards a new goal together
