Translation of the song Da mi nije ove moje tuge artist Zdravko Čolić

Da mi nije ove moje tuge

If there is no sorrow of mine

živio bih k'o što drugi žive

I would live like anyone else

pjevao bih i voljeo druge

I would sing and love

imao bih sjajne perspektive

I would have nice perspective

da mi nije ove moje tuge

if there is no sorrow of mine.

Ja ne pucam na glavne zgoditke

I don't point to a great pleasures

zbog kojih se samo vrijeme traći

they are only waste of time

dao bih se na kratke užitke

I would like simpler ones

bilo bi ih više što su kraći

there will be more of them, if they are shorter.

Ja ne pucam na glavne zgoditke (beng, beng)

I don't point to a great pleasures (bang, bang)

Da mi nije ove moje tuge

If there is no sorrow of mine

što mi snagu pred ljudima kuša

which is tempting my strength in front of people

s kim bih noći provodio duge

where would I spend my nights

ostala bi pusta moja duša

My soul would stay empty

da mi nije ove moje tuge

if there is no sorrow of mine.
