Jedne noći u decembru,
One night in December
Kad je bila hladna zima,
When the winter was cold
Čuvao sam tebe Branka,
I kept you safe Branka
Čuvao sam našeg sina.
I kept our son safe
Želio sam puno vina,
I wished for a lot of wine
I orkestar mandolina,
And an orchestra of Mandolins
Želio sam tvoje oči
I wished for your eyes
Da me griju ove noći.
To keep me warm that night
Ali ničeg nije bilo,
But not a thing took place
Osim one hladne noći,
Except that cold night
Mislio sam samo draga,
I only thought, my dear
Kad ću opet kući doći.
When I will come home again
Da u našem toplom domu,
So in our warm home
U tišini kraj kamina,
In silence near the fireplace
Ljubim tvoje bijele ruke,
I can kiss your white hands
Ljubim našeg dragog sina.
I can kiss our dear son
Želio sam puno vina,
I wished for a lot of wine
I orkestar mandolina,
And an orchestra of Mandolins
Želio sam tvoje oči,
I wished for your eyes
Da me griju ove noći.
So they can keep me warm that night
Ali ničeg nije bilo,
But not a thing took place
Osim one hladne noći,
Except that cold night
Mislio sam samo draga,
I only thought, my dear
Kad ću opet kući doći.
When I will come home again
Da u našem toplom domu,
So in our warm home
U tišini kraj kamina,
In silence near the fireplace
Ljubim tvoje bijele ruke,
I can kiss your white hands
Ljubim našeg dragog sina.
I can kiss our dear son
Jedne noći u decembru,

Čuvao sam našeg sina.
I kept our son safe
