Naša Lidija je pri vojakih [English translation]

Late at night I sit at the table

Through the window I only see myself

Oh my, how happy I'd be

If in the glass I saw you as well

Yesterday I sent you a package

Things that you wanted

Three pairs of olive brown nylon stockings with a stripe

And some wine to make you sing

Our beloved Lidija

You've been in the army for a long time

Even though Kikinda* is far away

You are in our hearts

But if you'll ever get upset

While standing on your watch

Just shout out with joy

Jodldodidi! Die, you lizards!

Back home, everyone is sending their regards to you

Father, mother, godfather Vinko

Reverend priest, sister and the pigs

We all sleep soundly now

Because we know you're protecting us

Sadly, I have to finish now

The roosters have started singing

Hang in there, everything will be alright

Your fiancé, Fredi
