Fildžan viška [English translation]

69, my old man and I

on the bicycles

on the way to Ilidz along the rivers and valleys

where the folks from Sarajevo party

a blanket, brewery, a grill and volleyball

everything in Technicolor like a carpet

and from the radio the sound of "Plima" from Indexi

and news from Vietnam

And the old man said then: "You see, everyone knows there

that politics is a simple thing

When you make coffee, you leave the pot

if anyone comes across, **** it!

Here everyone knows that

That´s folk from Sarajevo

here everyone knows that’s

Folk from Sarajevo

from my Sarajevo

In ‘84 it snowed

and all the folks gathered

skis on the shoulder

sleighs in the hands

on the way to the Heavenly valley

Bey´s mosque was sold to some cowboy

by the folk

Strangers figured out

that fame and money

are not the most important ones

in votaz (?)

the old man said then "You see now,

the whole world knows

there is a city

where you put on coffee

and leave the pot

if someone comes along, **** it!

Here everyone knows that

that´s the folk from Sarajevo

here everyone knows thats

the folk from Sarajevo

from my Sarajevo

The spring of ’92, hot steel shatters to pieces

all the neighborhoods and all the parties

they say, everything up to now

is lie and deceit

ustas-dzihad conspiracy

Il upali foluška

or the hoax works

the old man said then, cleaning up the sites of fire

I don´t regret the old "yugo", or the flat

but I regret that I´ll never again

put on the coffee and leave the pot

and if anyone comes along,**** it!

Now everyone knows that

that´s the folk from Sarajevo

from my Sarajevo

that´s the folk from Sarajevo

from my Sarajevo

the folk from Sarajevo

from my Sarajevo
