Translation of the song Jalah artist Božo Vrećo
Jalah
Jalah
Babo što su mi po kosi panuli
Dad, why have white butterflies landed,
Bijeli leptiri, k'o rosa kanuli
like dew dropped, onto my hair
Suze piju mi
They drink my tears
Lice miju mi
They wash my face
Znam da došli su
I know they've come
Da me odnesu
To take me away
Tamo gdje je on sablju spustio
To the place where he put his sabre down
Gdje je pramen kose moje ljubio
Where he kissed the lock of my hair
Tamo gdje je on sablju spustio
To the place where he put his sabre down
Gdje je pramen kose moje ljubio
Where he kissed the lock of my hair
Jalah Jalah
Jalah Jalah
Da je moj i njegov uzdisaj
Mine and his are breaths
Da je njegov i moj isti uzdisaj
His and mine, the same breaths
Da je moj i njegov uzdisaj
Mine and his are breaths
Da je njegov i moj isti uzdisaj
His and mine, the same breaths
Babo što su mi tijelo oknili
Dad, why have black butterflies painted,
Svojim krilima crni leptiri
With their wings, my body
Oči ljube mi
They kiss my eyes
Dragog bude mi
They wake up my beloved one
Znam da došli su
I know they've come
Da me odnesu
To take me away
Tamo gdje je on jagluk spustio
To the place where he put his kerchief down
Gdje je pramen kose moje ljubio
Where he kissed the lock of my hair
Tamo gdje je on jagluk spustio
To the place where he put his kerchief down
Gdje je pramen kose moje ljubio
Where he kissed the lock of my hair
Jalah Jalah
Jalah Jalah
Da je moj i njegov uzdisaj
Mine and his are breaths
Da je njegov i moj isti uzdisaj
His and mine, the same breaths
Da je moj i njegov uzdisaj
Mine and his are breaths
Da je njegov i moj isti uzdisaj
His and mine, the same breaths
Aman Aman Aman
Ah Ah Ah
Uzdisaj
Breath
