Translation of the song Balerina artist Zdravko Čolić

Serbian

Balerina

English translation

Ballerina

Oči male balerine

the eyes of a small ballerina

slučajno sam juče sreo

i met by chance yesterday

čekao kroz godine i volio

waited for years and loved

Prolazila duga ljeta

Long summers passed by

al' sam znao da će doći

but I knew that it/she would come

procvjetati poput cvijeta

it would flower like a flower

jedne ludo tople noći

one crazy, warm night

Jednu malu balerinu

one little ballerina

koja u mom srcu pleše

which dances in my heart

čekao sam kroz godine i volio

I waited for and loved for years

Prolazila duga ljeta

long summers passed by

al' sam znao da će doći

but I knew it/she would come

jedne ludo tople noći

one crazy, warm night

Samo ne znam da l' bi htjela

only I don't know if she would like

onu igru koju ne sm'je

that game/dance which she isn't allowed/which she doesn't know

il' je možda zavoljela

or if she perhaps has fallen in love

tužne rime moje pjesme

with the sad rhymes of my song

Samo ne znam da l' me hoće

I don't know if she wants me

da li ona mene želi

if she desires me

u tom svijetu od samoće

in that world full of loneliness

gdje smo čudom

where by chance

mi se sreli

we met
