Ко ли ноћас милује ти косу
Who is caressing your hair tonight?
Ко ли над тим уснама ти баје
Who is charming you upon those lips?
Ал' знам jа ти доћи нећу
I know that it won't be me that comes to you*
Док све своје гријехе не окајем 2X
Until I have repented for all my sins 2X
Ко те буди међу очи љуби
Who wakes you with a kiss between the eyes?*
Ко ти зору дозива да руди
Who summons your dawns into breaking?
Ал' знам ја ти доћи нећу
I know that it won't be me that comes to you*
Давно за ме рекли су да лудим 2x
They said a long time ago that I am going crazy. 2x
Коме ноћас руке своје свијаш
To whom are you reaching out your hands tonight?
Коме вео откриваш и сијаш
To whom are you removing your veil and glowing?
Ал' знам ја ти доћи нећу
I know that it won't be me that comes to you*
Никог за ме немој ти да питаш 2х
Do not ask anybody about me. 2x
Коме да се вратим мило моје
To whom can I return, my darling,
Кад од мене севдах остао је
When all that is left of me is sevdah*?
Ал' знам ја ти доћи нећу
So I know that I won't come to you,
Можда ти без мене биће боље 2х
and maybe without me things will be better for you? 2x
