Lyrics

Djordje Balasevic - Devojka Sa Cardas Nogama

Nosila je jelek svileni
kao u pesmi narodnoj.
I krstić, znak na lančiću
da nekog čeka navodno.

O, to su bili svatovi,
sve kićeni i zlaćeni.
A mi smo bolje svirali
neg' što smo bili plaćeni.

Al' dobro sad...

Nosio sam šal od kašmira
i prsluk protkan tajnama.
Baš od takvih su je čuvale
tetke sa 'ladnim trajnama.

K'o srna me je gledala
žalosnom pesmom sluđena.
Čije si pile pirgavo?
Što nisi meni sudjena?

'Ej, da...

Hej, pusti kose pune polena! Djordje Balasevic - Devojka Sa Cardas Nogama - http://motolyrics.com/djordje-balasevic/devojka-sa-cardas-nogama-lyrics-english-translation.html
'Ajde, baš u inat baba-rogama!
'Opla, digni suknju iznad kolena,
znam da kriješ čardaš u tim lepim nogama!

Rekoh joj "Beži, mani se,
i traži bolje partije!
Premala je moja tambura
da te od kiše sakrije".

Rekoh joj: "Ja sam samo tu
da vreme brže proleti.
Ja nosim čizme skitarke,
mene je teško voleti..."

Pa da...

Hej, pusti kose pune polena!
'Ajde, baš u inat baba-rogama!
'Opla, digni suknju iznad kolena,
znam da kriješ čardaš u tim lepim nogama!

Hej, doleti mala senice!
Tu, na moje zlatne čivije!
Vatra šara tvoje zenice!
Razbi nešto i zaigraj ludo, divije!

Djordje Balasevic - Girl With "Czardas" Legs (English translation)

She wore a silk waistcoat
Like in a folk song
And a little cross, a sign on the necklace
that she's been waiting for someone, allegedly.

Oh, that was the wedding
Everyone garnished and dressed-up
And were playing so good
Even better than we were paid for.

But, that's another story...

I wore a cashmere scarf
And a vest embroided with secrets
Exactly the kind of man her aunts with perms
were keeping her away from.

She was looking at me like a doe
infatuated by a sad song.
Whom you belong to, spotted chick,
Why aren't you meant for me?

Oh, well…

Hey, let down your hair full of pollen
Come one, in spite of the witches!Djordje Balasevic - Devojka Sa Cardas Nogama - http://motolyrics.com/djordje-balasevic/devojka-sa-cardas-nogama-lyrics-english-translation.html
Hey, raise the skirt above the knees,
I know you've been hiding "czardas"

I told her "Move on, let go of me,
and look for a better catch
My guitar is too small
To hide you from the rain".

I told her: "I am here just
To make the time go faster
I wear the wandering boots
It is hard to love me…"

Well, it is...

Come one, let down your hair full of pollen
Come one, in spite of the witches!
Hey, raise the skirt above the knees,
I know you've been hiding "czardas"

Hey, fly down, you little bird
Right here, on my golden strings
The fire is spreading all over your eyes
Break something up and dance, fast and wild.
