Sunčana strana, sunce budi me
It's a sunny room, the sun is waking me
e, nema te, tu kraj mene
Eh you are not here, beside me
Sad nemam kome da se povjerim
Now I have no one to confide in
a srce bi da otvorim
And I want to open my heart
Šutim, šta da pričam
I'm silent, what can I say
nemam s kim
I have no one to talk to
jer kad pričam ja se rastužim
For if I talk, I become disheartened
Svaka bez tebe soba miriše
Every room without you has a scent
il' premalo, il' previše
Either too weak or too strong
Žene su lijepe, al' drugačije
Women are beautiful, but different
il' ničije, il' svačije
Belonging to no one, or everyone
Soba ima raznih, ima svih
There all kinds of rooms
al' najviše praznih momačkih
Especially those of bachelors
Hotel Balkan, rano ujutru,
Hotel Balkan, early morning
a mi više nismo tu
But we aren't here anymore
Hotel Balkan, služba buđenja
Hotel Balkan, morning service
nisam tu, nisi tu, nisam tu, nisi tu,
I'm not here, you're not here, I'm not here, you're not here
u hotel Balkan se vraćam u snu
Hotel Balkan I return to you in my dreams
E, kad mi druga kafu nalije
Eh, when another pours my coffee
sve prolije dok nalije
She spills it all over
A, kad mi tvoja ruka dolije
And when you hand pours in the extra
milina me svog oblije
Pleasure floods my being
Pijem, al' ne pijem
I drink, but I do not drink
nemam s kim
I have no one with
jer kad pijem ja se rastužim
For when I drink I become disheartened
Svaka bez tebe soba miriše
Every room without you has a scent
Soba ima raznih, ima svih
There all kinds of rooms
