Translation of the song Imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi artist Oliver Dragojević

Croatian

Imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi

English translation

She had a nice cleft chin

Nije bila osobito lijepa

She wasn't especially pretty

ali nije bila kao druge

but she wasn't like the others.

pa je ljubav, kao uvijek slijepa

So love, apparently always blind,

zbog nje razne prelazila pruge

because of her crossed many railroads.

Nije bila osobito moja

She wasn't especially mine

ovo malo dovoljno mi znači

This little bit means enough to me.

ta je bila drugačijeg soja

She was a different kind.

grizući se mi smo bili jači

Biting ourselves, we were stronger.

Imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi

She had a nice cleft chin

znala je da grebe, znala je da gladi

She knew how to scrape, she knew how to caress

imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi

She had a nice cleft chin

drhtali smo složno smeteni i mladi

we shivered together, perplexed and young.

Imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi

She had a nice cleft chin

znala je da prede, znala da se svadi

she knew how to purr, she knew how to quarrel

imala je lijepu rupicu na bradi

she had a nice cleft chin

rupicu na bradi

cleft chin

Nije bila osobito luda

She wasn't particularly crazy

ali ja sam dizao taj prosjek

but I raised that average

činio sam zbog nje razna čuda

For her, I did many miracles

milovao i prije i poslije

Caressed both before and after

Nije bila osobito nježna

She wasnt especially gentle

ljutila se u nekakve sate

She got angry sometimes

ali mi je bila neizbježna

But to me, she was inevitable

u te sate sto u glavu mlate

At those times, that kicked me in the head.
