Dirlija [English translation]

There are empty glasses on the table

Rakija* has been drunk

Where are you waking up this morning

Who covers you while you're sleepy

Everything is the same here

You know how poverty forces us

To be careful and to wait

Until the next payday

Then we think of you

In warm nights

When the old musician

Plays that song of yours

And sings

Chorus 2x

Dirli, dirli, dirlija**

Don't make a scene

The well-off have money

Even for us common folk

We see your face

Only on photographs

Come, drop by, just for a moment

Have a drink with us

Do you also think of us

In warm nights

When the old musician

Plays that song of yours

And sings

- Chorus 2x -
