Kradem ti se u večeri,
u večeri pod pendžere,
Da ti bacim struk zumbula,
Da ti cvijetak prozbori,
Koliko te silno ljubim,
Mrijem, dušo, za tobom.

Ti ne haješ za bolove,
Za bolove srca moga.
Cvijet vehne, mlad se suši,
Sevdah ode uzaman.
Allah nek ti drugog dad'e,
Mrijem, dušo, za tobom.

KRADEM TI SE U VECERI ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I steal to you in the evening,
In the evening, under your window,
To throw you a bunch of hyacinth,
So that flowers may tell you,
How much, how strongly I love you;
I’m dying, my love, for you.

You do not care about my suffering,
For the pain within my heart.
The flower withers, youth dries up,
Sevdah fades into nothingness.
May Allah give you to another,
While I’m dying, my love, for you.

 How much across this world
 That bright sun shines upon
 There is no bigger orphan
 Than i am, my mother

Oca nemam, majke nemam
nigde nikog nemam svog
samo jednu nevernicu
sudio joj dragi Bog

 I do not have father, i do not have mother
 I do not have anyone mine anywhere
 Just one unfaithful woman
 May Dear God judge her

Da je moja majka ziva
ona bi me tjesila
al' je moju staru majku
crna zemlja prekrila

 If my mother was alive
 She would comfort me
 But my old mother
 Is covered with black soil

MEHMET AKİF ERSOY - NECİD ÇÖLLERİNDE

2011-08-13T23:33:00.005+03:00

Yâ Nebi...
Şu halime bak
Nasıl ki bağrı yanar gün kızınca sahranın,
Benim de ruhumu yaktıkça yaktı hicranın.
Hârimi Pâkine can atmak istedim durdum,
Gerildi karşıma yıllarca ailem yurdum.
Tahammül et dediler, hangi bir zamana kadar,
Ne bitmez olsa tahammül, onun da bir sonu var.
Gözümde tüttü bu andıkça yandığım toprak,
Önümde durmadı artık ne hanuman ne ocak.
Yıkıldı hepsi, ben aştım diyar-ı Sudan’ı,
Üç ay tihame deyip çiğnedim beyebanı.
Kemiklerim bile yanmıştı belki sahrada,
Yetişmeseydin eğer Ya Muhammed imdada.
Eserdi kumda yüzerken serin serin nefesin,
Akarsular gibi çağlardı her tarafta sesin.
İradem olduğu gündür senin iradene râm,
Bir an olsun yollarda durmak bana oldu haram.
Bütün hayakil-i hilkat ile hasbihal ettim,
Leyâle derdimi döktüm, cibali söylettim.
Yanıp tutuşmadan yummadım gözümü,
Nücuma sor ki bu kirpikler uyku görmüş mü?
Azab-ı Hecrine katlandım elli üç senedir,
Sonunda anlıma çarpan bu zalim örtü nedir?
Üç beş sineyi hicran içinde inleterek,
Çıkan yüreklere husran mı, merhamet mi gerek.
Demir nikabını kaldır mezarı pâkinden,
Bu hasta ruhumu artık, ayırma hakinden.
nedir o meşale, nurun mu ya Resulallah
Sükûn içinde bir an geçti, sonra kısa bir âh....

Mehmet Akif Ersoy

NECİD ÇÖLLERİNDE ENGLISH TRANSLATION

O the Messenger of Allah!..
Look at me..
The way the Sahara burns from its chest when the Sun grows hot
Same way your absence burned my soul
I intended to visit Harim-i Paki
My family and my land prevented me for years
They told me to endure, but till when?
No matter how much patience you have, there is some limit
My eyes were searching that land, which burns me inside as I recall
No longer my home could stand against me
They all collapsed, I passed through land of Sudan
For three months i said “Tihame” (Mecca) and ran over desert
Even my bones would burn in Sahara
Oh Mumammad if you did not come to help
Your breath was blowing cooly as I was swimming in sand
Your voice was babbling as rivers, all around
Since the day my will submitted to your will
It became haram (forbidden) to me even to stop for a while on my way
I talked to all temples of creation
I confide my troubles to the nights, I spoke with mountains.
I never closed eyes without kindling and burning
Ask to the dawn, did these eyelashes ever see sleep
I endured your absence for fifty-three years
And in the end what is this cruel veil that crashes on my forehead?
Making chests mourn because of separation
How should these hearts be treated? Despair or mercy?
Remove these iron veils from your clean grave
Do not keep this desperate soul away from you anymore
What is that torch, is it your nour oh the Messenger of Allah
A while passed in silence and then a short “ah”…

They are the strength that keep from falling to despare

Sen, kalbimdeki tüm yaraların ilacı

Sözlerini kendimde buluyorum
Umutsuzluğa düşmemem için güç veriyorlar bana
Seni sevgili diye çağıran bu can
Senden sonra kalan bu nefesle
Ve ondan doğan bu aşkla
Seni çağırıyorum ya Emin!

Bekle beni ya Resulallah

Sana geliyorum ya Nebiullah

Sweet Djula (Rose - Gül ) cried
Osman Pasha’s faithful darling
My Osman, where were you?
Where did you lose your army?

Evo mene! Đulo mlada!
pokraj Pljevlja starog grada!
Što mi care vojske dade!
To mi Đulo za njim pade!

Here i am, young Djula
Near the old town of Plevne
Whole army that car gave to me
I lost it for Plevne, Dulo

Ropstva sam ti Đulo pao
Britku sablju otpasao!
Sada nemam nikog svoga
Osim Boga jedinoga

Djula, I have fallen captive
I took off the sharp sword
Now i do not have anyone mine
Except One God

Đulo mlada preudaj se!
Svom Osmanu ne nadaj se!
Dušman me je zarobio!
Zauvjek nas rastavio!!!

Çocukluk sevgilime
O aşina bakışlar içimi deldi yine

I encountered after years
To my childhood lover
Those known looks once more penetrated through me

O bakış ki götürür
Beni yıllarca geri
Hatıramda canlandı ah
İlk aşkımın gülleri

That look takes me
Back, to years before
Revived in my memory
The roses of my first love

Gelmez o güller
Dönmez o günler
Mazide kaldı hep

Those roses will not return
Those days will not return
They all are past now

Toni Cetinski - Sto Si Ti Meni Lyrics English Translation

Sto si ti meni, da l' suza sto slatko boli
il' netko tko lazno voli i prevrtljivo
ljubav je moja nevina, njezna, cista
iskra sto s neba blista, al' ti to ne vidis

What are you to me, a tear that hurt sweetly?
Or someone who loves falsely and insincerely
My love is innocent, gentle and pure
Spark which shines from the sky, but you do not see it

Ref.
Jer drazi su ti oni sto pricaju lazno
i kupuju ti stvari, da, to ti je vazno
a ja te volim tako da ne znam sto reci
i svakog dana pisem pjesme bez rijeci

Because those who talk lies are more dear to you?
And who buy you things, yes, that is what matters to you
But i love you in a way that i don’t know what to tell
And each day i write songs without words

I pjevam ti u dusi dok usta mi sute
i poklanjam ti vjecnost, a drugi minute
al' drazi su ti oni sto pricaju lazno
da, to ti je vazno, da, to ti je vazno

And i sing to you in my soul while my mouth is quite
And i present you eternity while others (present you) minutes
But those who talk lies are more dear to you
Yes, that is what matters to you, yes, that is what matters to you

Od srece do srece posrcem jako cesto
ma, evo ti moje mjesto pa voli uzalud
i sto si ti meni, Boze, treba mi svjeza nada
napada tuga sada jer shvatio sam sve

From one happiness to another, i slip so often
Here, take my place, you love in vain
And what are you to me, God, i need fresh hopes
Now the sadness attacks because i have understood all

Pred tebe razlit' cu svoju bol
K'o crno vino na bijeli stol
Još nosim onaj trag
Što boli al' je drag
A tebe nema i nema te

 In front of you i will diffuse my pain
 Like black wine on white table
 I stil carry that trace
 Which hurts but which is also dear
 But you are not here and still not here

Prolazi još jedan utorak
Sve ide, znam
Moram biti jak
Al' cuvam jastuk naš
Tek ako zalutaš
A tebe nema i nema te

 Another Tuesday passes
 I know, everything passes
 I have to be strong
 But i still keep our pillow
 In case you just wander (to here)
 But you are not here and stil not here

I sve dok živim
I dok imam glas
Ja plakat' cu za nas
To me život okuje
I sve dok živim
I dok imam glas
Ja plakat' cu za nas
Bože daj da budem jak
Da mi proðe utorak

 And as long as i live
 And as long as i have voice
 I will cry for us
 Life ties me into that
 As long as i live
 And as long as i have voice
 I will cry for us
 God give me strength
 So that this Tuesday passes

Živim k'o vuk ponosan i sam
Ne znam za bol, ljubav niti sram
Al' cuvam jastuk naš
Tek ako zalutaš
A tebe nema i nema te

 I live like a wolf, proud and alone
 I don’t know pain, neither love or shame
 But i still keep our pillow
 In case you just wander (to here)
 But you are not here and stil not here

KOLIKO JE SIROM SVIJETA LYRICS ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Koliko je sirom svijeta
sto ga zarko sunce sja
nema veceg siroceta
nego sto sam majko ja

 How much across this world
 That bright sun shines upon
 There is no bigger orphan
 Than i am, my mother

Oca nemam, majke nemam
nigde nikog nemam svog
samo jednu nevernicu
sudio joj dragi Bog

 I do not have father, i do not have mother
 I do not have anyone mine anywhere
 Just one unfaithful woman
 May Dear God judge her

Da je moja majka ziva
ona bi me tjesila
al' je moju staru majku
crna zemlja prekrila

 If my mother was alive
 She would comfort me
 But my old mother
 İs covered with black soil

AL DINO - I SAD ME PO TEBI POZNAJU

AL DINO - I SAD ME PO TEBI POZNAJU ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Donesite mi
pramen njene kose u postelju
ja nista nemam
osim tu zelju posljednju

Bring me
A tuft of her hair in my bed
I don't have anything
Else than that last wish

Da osjetim miris njen na jastuku
ost'o sam je zeljan u zivotu

For me to feel her smell on the pillow
I did not have enough of her in my life

Ref.
I sad me po tebi poznaju
i sad me za tebe pitaju
na dlanu mi tvoje ime citaju
zbog tebe zivog me sahranjuju

Even now they recognize me by you
Even now they ask me about you
They read your name on my palm
Because of you they burry me alive

Sad idem tamo
gdje ne zivi se od nadanja
umorila se
ova dusa od prastanja

Now I am going there
Where people do not live from hope
This soul has got tired
of saying farewell

Moja zvijezda nije dugo trajala
ti si dosla kad se vec ugasila

My star did not last long
You came when it already

Translation: Azra & Ibra

ZELJKO JOKSIMOVIC - ZENA ZA SVA VREMENA LYRICS ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I opet sam tu.
Gledam je kako bledi.
Zatičem se kako mislim na tuđe
i smeta mi sve ono sto nekad bilo je,
čak i kad kaze volim te.

And here I am again
I am watching her becoming pale
I find myself thinking of someone else’s (property)
And everything that happened before disturbs me
Even when she says “I love you”

I opet sam tu, jasno je sta mi sledi
I opirem se ali malo sta vredi
Jer se ljubav, ljubav predaje.

And here I am again, it is clear what follows next
And I resist but it worths a bit
Because love, love surrenders

A ti si zena za sva vremena ti si k'o stvorena za ljubav i topao dom
A ti si zena za sva vremena ti si k'o stvorena za sreću ali ne sa mnom.
Al' nisi kriva ti, al' nisi kriva ti sto takav sam.

But you are the woman for all times, you are just as created for love and warm home
But you are the woman for all times, you are just as created for happnies but not with me
But it is not your fault, it is not your fault that i am like that

Ja opet sam tu na kraju jedne priče
i činim sve da si sto vise sama,
i svaka od njih
jedna na drugu liče,
I uvek na kraju stojim sam.

Here I am again at the end of one story
And I do everything to make you more alone
And everyone of them
Seems like each other
And in the end I am always alone.

Translation: Azra & Ibrahim

Zeljko Joksimovic - Završna pesma English translation

Kome možeš da se vratiš ako više nikog ne raduje to
Gledaš neke druge ljude a vreme ide, ne pita za bol
Čime možeš da se dičiš ako te se više niko ne seća
Živiš samo dok te pamte a vreme ide, za bol i ne pita

> To whom you can return when that (your return) does not rejoice anyone anymore
> You are looking at some other people and time passes, does not ask about the pain
> Whereby you can be proud of if nobody remembers you anymore
> You are living just as long as you are remembered and time passes, does not ask about pain

Nemoj plakati, mene čuvaju sve želje koje ti si meni rekla u ponoć
I u nedelju, kad se pomoliš, otvori prozore i reci samo laku noć

> Do not cry, all the wishes you told me in the midnight look after me
> And on Sunday, when you finish your prayer, open window and just say good night

Mehmet Akif Ersoy - Birlik Bağı - Bond of Unity

Müslümanlık nerde bizden geçmiş insanlık bile
Alem aldatmaksa maksat aldanan yok nafile
Kaç hakiki müslüman gördümse hep makberdedir
Müslümanlık bilmem ama galiba göklerdedir

> Leave being Muslim to a side, we are even late for being human
> If the purpose is deceiving the world, it is vain, nobody is being deceived
> The real Muslims I ever saw, are all in graves
> I don't know where is Muslimism but i guess it is in skies

Varsa şayet söyleyin bir parçık insafınız
Böyle kansızmıydı haşa kahraman eslafınız
Böyle düşmüşmüydü herkes ayrılık sevdasına
Benzeyip şirasesiz bir mushafın eczasına
Hiç görülmüşmüydü olsun kayd ı vahdet tarumar
Böyle olmuşmuydu millet can evinden rahnedar
Böyle açlıktan bogazlarmıydı kardeş kardeşi
Böyle adetmiydi bi perva yemek insan leşi

> Tell me if there exists a bit of mercy in you
> Were your heroic ancestry cowardly like this
> Were they all also in the love of seperateness
> Looking like parts of a book that lacks order
> Is this ever seen, the bond of unity is ruined
> Was it ever like this, nation is wrecked from its heart
> Were brothers killing each other because of hunger
> Was it tradition to eat human corpse carelessly

Irzımızdır çiğnenen evladımızdır doğranan
Hey sıkılmaz ağlamassan bari gülmekten utan

> Our honour is being trampled on, our sons are being butchered
> Hey, if you do not feel pain and cry, at least be ashamed of laughing

Kurt uzaklardan bakar dalgın görürmüş merkebi
Saldırırmış ansızın yaydan boşanmış ok gibi
Lakin aşk olsunki aldırmazda otllarmış eşşek
Sanki tavşanmış gelen yahud kılıksız köstebek
Kar sayarmış bir tutam fazla olsun yutmayı
Hasmı derken çullanırmış yutmadsan son lokmayı

> Wolf sees the absent minded donkey from the far
> Then it attacks like it is the arrow freed from the bow
> But donkey doesn't bother, goes on cropping
> Like the coming one is a rabbit or a dowdily mole
> It considers eating a bit more as a gain
> Then the enemy swoops down on before it swallows the last bite

Bir hakikattır bu bildiğin usluba sok
Halimiz merkeple kurdun aynı asla farkı yok
Burnumuzdan tuttu düşman biz boğaz kaynındayız
Bir bakın halamı hala ihriras ardındayız
Saygısızlık elverir bir parça olsun arlanın
Vakti çoktan geldi hem geçmektedir arlanmanın
Davranın haykırmadan nakus-u izmihlaliniz
Öyle bir buhrana sapmıştırki zira haliniz
Zevke dalmak şöyle dursun vaktiniz yok mateme
Davranın zira gülünç olduk aleme
Bekleşirken gökte yüzbinlerce ervah intikam
Yerde kalmış naşa benzer kavm için durmak haram
Kahraman ecdadınızdan sizde bir kan yokmudur
Yoksa istikbalinizden korkulur pek korkulur

> This is a truth, match it with the thing that you already know
> Our situation is the same with the story of donkey and wolf, not different at all
> The enemy holds us from the nose, we are still trying to gain a bit more
> Take a look, we are still and still after ambition
> Disrespectfulness is enough, feel a bit of shame
> It is already time for it and is being late for getting ashamed
> Take action before your gong of disappearance rings
> Because your situation is in such depression
> Leave pleasure to a side, there is no time for even mourning
> Take action, because we became ridiculous to the World
> While hunderds of thousands souls in the sky wait for revenge
> It is forbidden to stop, for a nation that is like the corpse on the ground
> Do not you have any blood from your heroic ancestors
> Otherwise scary is the future, very redoubtable

PERO ZUBAC - MOSTARSKE KISE

2010-02-19T11:00:00.003+02:00

PERO ZUBAC - MOSTARSKE KISE ENGLISH TRANSLATION

U Mostaru sam voleo neku Svetlanu
Jedne jeseni
Jao kad bih znao sa kim sada spava
Ne bi joj glava, ne bi joj glava
Jao kad bih znao ko je sada ljubi
Ne bi mu zubi, ne bi mu zubi
Jao kad bih znao ko to u meni bere (bratı)
Kajsije još nedozrele
Govorio sam joj ti si derište ti si
Balavica
Sve sam joj govorio
I plakala je na moje ruke, na moje reči
Govorio sam joj ti si anđeo, ti si đavo
Telo ti zrelo, šta se praviš svetica
A padale su svu noć neke modre kiše
Nad Mostarom

> I loved one Svetlana in Mostar
> During one autumn
> Alas, if i knew with whom she sleeps now
> Her head wouldn't, her head wouldn't...
> Alas, if i knew who kisses her now
> His teeth wouldn't, his teeth wouldn't...
> Alas, if i knew who picks from wıthın me
> Apricots which are still immature
> I used to tell her "you are brat, you are
> Snotty"
> I used to tell her everything
> And she cried on my arms, on my words
> I used to tell her "you are angel, you are devil"
> Your body is ripe, why do you act like you’re a saint
> And whole night some dark blue rains were raining
> Over Mostar

Nije bilo sunca, nije bilo ptica, ničeg
Nije bilo
Pitala me je imam li brata, šta studiram
Jesam li Hrvat, volim li Rilkea, sve me
Je pitala
Pitala me je da li bih mogao sa svakom
Tako sačuvaj bože
Da li je volim tiho je pitala
A padale su nad Mostarom neke modre Kiše

> There was no Sun, no birds, nothing
> Was there
> She asked me if i have brother, what do i study
> If i am Croatian, if i love Rilke, everything
> She asked me
> She asked me if i could, God forbıd, be lıke that wıth every gırl
> If i love her, she asked quietly
> And over Mostar some dark blue rains were raining

Ona je bila raskošno bela u sobnoj tmini
Ali nije htela to da čini, nije htela
Il nije smela, vrag bi joj znao
Jesen je, ta mrtva jesen na oknima
Njene oči ptica, njena bedra srna
Imala je mladež, mladež je imala
Ne smem da kažem
Imala je mladež mali ljubičasti ili mi
Se čini
Pitala me je da li sam Hrvat imam li
Devojku
Volim li Rilkea, sve me je pitala
A na oknu su ko božićni zvončići moga
Detinjstva zvonile kapi
A noćna pesma tekla tihano niz donju
Mahalu

> She was lavishly fair in the darkness of the room
> But she did not want to do that, she did not want
> Or she did not dare, devıl who would know
> ıt ıs Autumn, that dead autumn in the windows
> Her eyes are bird, her thıghs a deer
> She had a mole, a mole she had
> I do not dare to say
> She had a mole little purple one or
it’s my imagination
> She asked me if i am Croatian, if i have
> Girlfriend
> If i love Rilke, she asked me everything
> And in the wındow glass, lıke christmas jingles
> Of my childhood, drops were rıngıng
> And the night song was flowing silently down the neighbourhood

Ona je prostrla svoje godine po parketu
Njene su oči bile pune kao zrele breskve
Njene su dojke bile tople ko mali psići
Govorio sam joj da je glupava, da se pravi
Važna
Svetlana Svetlana znaš li da je
Atomski vek
De Gol, Gagarin i koještarije, sve sam
Joj govorio
Ona je plakala, ona je plakala

> She spread her years over parquetry
> Her eyes were full like ripe peaches
> Her breasts were warm like little puppies
> I was telling her that she was kind of stupid, that she was showing off
> Svetlana, Svetlana do you know that it is
> The atomic century
> De Gol, Gagarin and nonsense, i spoke to her
> about everything
> She cried, she cried

Vodio sam je po kujundžiluku po
Aščinicama
Svuda sam je vodio
U pećine pecına je skrivao, na čardak nosio
Pod mostovima se igrali žmurke Neretva
Ždrebica
Pod Starim mostom Crnjanskog joj
Govorio
Što je divan, šaputala je, što je divan
Kolena joj crtao u vlažnom pesku
Smejala se tako vedro, tako nevino ko
Prvi ljiljani

> I was showıng her Kujundziluk**, aščinice**
> I walked with her everywhere
> I was hidıig her in caves, I carried her to cardak**
> We played hide-and-seek under the bridges, Neretva
> Filly
> Under the old bridge I recited Crnjanski (a poet)
> How splendid he is, she whispered, how splendid he is
> I draw her knees in moist sand
> She laughed so gaily, so innocently like
> First lillies

U džamije je vodio Karađoz beg mrtav
Premrtav
Pod teškim turbetom
Na grob Šantićev cveće je odnela malo
Plakala kao i sve žene
Svuda sam je vodio
Sada je ovo leto
Sad sam sasvim drugi, pišem neke pesme
U jednom listu pola stupca za Peru Zupca
I ništa više
A padale su svu noć nad Mostarom neke
Modre kiše

> I took her to mosques, Karadjoz Bey is dead
> Very dead
> Under weighty tomb
> She placed a small bouquet of flowers to Šantić’s grave
> (and) cried (there) like all women do
> I took her everywhere
> Now it is this summer
> I am somebody different, I write some poems
> Half of column for Pero Zubac in one newspaper
> And nothing more
> And whole night some dark blue rains were raining
> Over Mostar

Ona je bila raskošno bela u sobnoj tmini
Ali nije htela to da čini, nije htela
Il nije smela, vrag bi joj znao
Ni ono nebo ni ono oblačje ni one
Krovove
Bledunjavo sunce izgladnjelog dečaka
Nad Mostarom
Ne umem zaboraviti
Ni njenu kosu njen mali jezik kao jagodu
Njen smeh što je umeo zaboleti kao
Kletva

> She was lavishy fair in the darkness of the room
> But she did not want to do that, she did not want
> Or she did not dare, devil would know
> Neither the sky, nor the clouds, nor the
> Roofs
> The pale sun of a starved boy
> Over Mostar
> I don't know how to forget
> Neither her hair, nor her little tongue like a strawberry
> Her smile that could hurt like a
> Curse

Onu molitvu u kapeli na Belom Bregu
Bog je veliki, govorila je, nadživeće nas
Ni one teške modre kiše
O jesen besplodna njena jesen
Govorila je o filmovima o Džemsu Dinu
Sve je govorila malo tužno malo
Plačljivo o Karenjini
Govorila je Klojd Grifits ne bi umeo
Ni mrava zgaziti
Smejao sam se, ti si glupa on je ubica
Ti si dete

> That prayer in the chapel on the Beli Breg (White Hill)
> God is great, she used to tell, He will outlive us
> Neither those heavy dark blue rains
> Oh autumn, her fruitless autumn
> She used to talk about the movies of James Dean
> She used to tell everything a bit sad, a bit
> Weepy about Karenina
> She used to tell “Clyde Grifits, could not even
> trample on an ant”
> I laughed, you are silly, he is a murderer
> You are a kid

Ni one ulice one prodavnice poslednjeg
Izdanja Oslobođenja
Ni ono grožđe polusvelo u izlozima ne
Umem zaboraviti
Onu besplodnu gorku jesen nad Mostarom
One kiše
Ljubila me je po cele noći, grlila me i
Ništa više
Majke mi ništa drugo nismo

> Nor those streets, those shops
> Latest number of Oslobodjenje (newspaper Liberation)
> Neither those half wilted grapes in the shop windows
> I cannot forget
> That fruitless bitter autumn over Mostar
> Those rains
> She used to kiss me whole night long, to hug me and
> Nothing else
> I swear to my mother, we did nothing more
