Translation of the song Mjerkam te, mjerkam artist Zdravko Čolić

Koji je ovo grad

What city is this?

koje je ovo mjesto

What place is this?

gdje sam ja ovo sad

Where am I now?

tu nisam bio često

I haven't been here often

u prvom redu ti u tijesnoj haljini

In the first row there's you in a tight dress

moram te noćas gledati

I have to look at you tonight

Bilo bi lošije da vide komšije

It would be bad if friends saw

šta bi ti kazali

What would they tell you

i kad bi saznali

Once they found out

ja bih te ukrao

I would steal you

ja bih te ubrao

I would pick you

ubrao ja, cvijete moj

I would pick you, my flower

Ref. 2x

Chorus 2X

Mjerkam te, mjerkam

I'm checking you out, checking out

poslije svirke čekam

After the concert waiting for you

u garderobi pa u mojoj sobi

In my dressing room, in my room

možda će biti, možda biti neće

Perhaps it will happen, perhaps it won't

ej da je sreće

If I were that lucky

ej da smo zajedno

If we were together

Putujem ja nedjeljama

I am travelling every week

jedno mjesto, drugo mjesto

One place, another place

ko će da zna

Who will know?

putujem ja nedjeljama

I am travelling every week

po hotelima i kolima

in hotels and cars
