Molitva [Prayer]

Lookie what I found - well my Serbian/Hungarian friend found for me - the Serbian Winner from Eurovision 2007 w/ English subtitles; they are beautiful lyrics (Ooooo I get chills reading it) - some day I'll be saying it to my love. Let me tell you - anyone that has fallen in love feels like this - well I did each and every time (5x now). First was an American Southerner (South Carolina-6 months), 2nd American/French Canadian (Quebec-somewhere very remote-6 months), 3rd Sicilian (Capo D'Orlando-5.5 years), 4th Brazilian (Sao Paulo-few months) and 5th French (small village in France-forgot where :O( 1.5 intense months). Oy vey - can't wait to do it again!



Serbe [English]

Ni oka da sklopim, [I'm wide awake]
Postelja prazna tera san, [An empty bed drives my dreams away]
A život se topi [Life melts like ice]
I nestaje brzo, k'o dlanom o dlan. [Disappears in the twinkling of an eye]

K'o razum da gubim, [I'm losing my mind,]
Jer stvarnost I ne primećujem, [Pushing reality out of sight]
Još uvek te ljubim, [Our lips are touching softly]
Još uvek ti slepo verujem. [You're the one I believe blindly]

K'o luda, ne znam kuda, [I walk around like crazy]
Ljubavi se nove bojim, [Falling in love frightens me]
A dane, žive rane, [Days are like wounds]
Više ne brojim. [Countless and hard to get through]

Molitva, kao žar na mojim usnama je, [Prayer... It burns my sore lips like a fire]
Molitva, mesto reči samo ime tvoje. [Prayer... Thy name is something I admire]
(I) Nebo zna, kao ja, [Heaven knows just as well as I do]
Koliko puta sam ponovila, [So many times I have cried over you]
To nebo zna, baš kao ja, [Heaven knows just as well as I do]
Da je ime tvoje moja jedina [I pray and live only for you]
Molitva. [Prayer]

Al Bogu ne mogu [I can't lie to God]
Lagati sve dok se molim, [As I kneel down and pray]
A lažem ako kažem [You're the love of my life]
Da te ne volim [That's the only thing I can say]
