Barbara [English translation]

You told me how you love guys from the south

and how up where you are in Ljubljana

sometimes, fall purple rains

When you come sometimes in my dreams

With you long ago

scent of cyclamen,

I tremble like a rod

like a lost balloon

(Chorus)

Barbara, oh my Barbara

the days have taken you away

the horses have taken you to the crow

wait crazy heart, it isn't the end

Barbara oh my Barbara

you are a fire, and I burn in it.

Because of you I am fighting

our blue star has a shine.

In a garden of ash of my dreams

often, you grow like a cloud from the ocean.

you live shortly, like a butterfly

only a few hours while the universe sleeps.

And I see your eyes how they shine

while you silently greet the chimney sweeps

And you look for some magic of the Orient

in this city at the end of the world

(Chorus)
