Translation of the song U krtogu artist Block Out

Serbian

U krtogu

English translation

In pig's nest

Guše se ljudi zbijeni u krtogu

People are suffocating in the pig's nest

i čekaju da sunce sine,

And wait for the sun to shine through

da im snagu da da žive.

To give them strength to live

Al' nikog nema da im kapke otvori,

But there's no one there to open their eyelids

da pokaže im oblak

To show them the cloud

što im sunce zaklanja

That's blocking the sun,

da kaže da nije spas u njemu.

To say that 'salvation' can't be found in it

Sve im je brige nemi strah pokosio,

All their worries were slashed by fear

navijaju da život prođe

They're cheering for their life to pass

da sam spadne teg od tuge.

That the weight of sadness falls off by itself

Sam Bog da dođe ne bi ih ubedio

Even if God himself came to convince them

da svaki put je bolji

That every [other] way is better

od tog polumrtvog sna.

Than that half-dead dream

Da nije spas u njemu,

That salvation isn't found in 'him'

da nije spas u njoj.

That salvation isn't found in 'her'

Samo se deca smeju

Only children are laughing

jer još ne znaju

For they do not know

da treba da porastu,

That they have to grow up

i da drugi izbor nemaju.

And that they have no other choice

A mrak je prepun

And the darkness is filled to the brim

potpune izvesnosti

With complete certainty

i možda potrebna je laž

And perhaps a lie is needed

da poveruju,

For them to believe

kad već znaju

When they know

Da nije spas u njemu,

That salvation isn't found in 'him'

da nije spas u njoj.

That salvation isn't found in 'her'
