Translation of the song Sinoc Nisa Bila Tu artist Zdravko Čolić

Sinoć nisi bila tu

You were not here last night

da mi malo snage daš,

to give me some strength

da mi pružiš ruke te,

to have your open arms (or open your arms)

da na njima umrem ja..

to die in them.

O ne, danas je kasno,

Oh no, today is too late,

ti idi svojim putem,

you head your way,

a ja ću ostat sam.

and I'll stay alone.

Hladne ruke, hladan san,

Cold hands, a cold dream

hladne usne svaki dan,

cold lips every day

samo to si dala ti,

that's all you gave to me

ti zbog koje živjeh ja.

you, for whom I lived.

O, ne, ne mogu više,

Oh, no, I can't take it anymore,

ne mogu da te volim,

I can't love you anymore,

odlazi sad!

go away now!

Nosi, nosi, nosi sve što si mi dala,

Take away, take away everything you gave me,

ono malo toplih dana,

those few days of warmth

a one uvele ruže nek ti noćas ljubav pruže.

and find love tonight in those faded roses.*
