Kad je noć hladna i zvjezdana [English translation]

He came from a village

Somewhere behind Gods back*

He didn't want the big town and the towers

But he had to try

That brough him to the brink of insanity,

Days like a gipsy years, beer and brandy

Sundays, he gets dressed up fancy

And then he goes to

"Arilj" where Emira worked

She used to play with him when they were kids

She was for him like family

The only one, to whom he could cry himself out

Emira, do you remember the place we were born?

During the winter, when the wind is blowing and the snow falls?

Emira, when I hear the howling of the winds

I am more afraid of Belgrade, than of our wolves

Sundays, somehow weird, an empty bar

They told him that she left, with a rich man from Kraljevo

And even today, the tale is being told by the river fishers

That when the night is cold and full of stars

As if the river would call for someone

Emira, do you remember the place we were born?

During the winter, when the wind is blowing and the snow falls?

Emira, when I hear the howling of the winds

I am more afraid of Belgrade, than of our wolves
