Translation of the song A sad adio artist Željko Samardžić

Jednom odleteće ptice,

Once the birds fly away

Ulice naše ostaće bez sunca;

Our streets will be left without sunlight

Čovek ispratiće ženu,

The man will escort the woman out

Dugo na vetru on stajaće sam.

For a long time he will stand alone

Jednom odlazi svako,

Once everybody leaves

Putem svog života;

On the path of their life

Na rastanku srce samo kaže:

At the parting the heart just says:

ja ću se vratiti.

I will be back

Ref.

Ref.

A sad adio,

and now, farewell(adio)

A sad adio;

and now,farewell(adio)

I ko zna gde;

and who knows where

I ko zna kad.

and who knows when

Gledam nepoznata lica,

I see unfamiliar faces

Svaki taj čovek ja bih mog'o biti;

I could be each one of those men

Gledam, ljube se i plaču,

I see, them kissing and crying

Svi putuju, ja ostajem sam.

They are all traveling, I am left alone

Gledam oči decaka,

I see the eyes of a little boy

Vraća me detinjstvu;

they take me back to my childhood

Pogašena svetla na peronu,

Turned off lights on the platform

Takva si, mladosti.

That is the way you are, youth

and who knows where

I ko zna kad.

and who knows when
