Djordje Balasevic - Ladjarska serenata
Da od silnih briga Bog posustane,
 Pa me zamoli da ga odmenim,
 Ne bi bilo lepo da mu, dok ne ustane,
 Svet na bolje promenim... Ipak, kad veæ držim žezlo ćudesno,
 Zavar'o bih trag gromom plamenim...
 A dotle bih reku skren'o malko udesno,
 Starim drumom kamenim... Pa da kroz moj salaš lađe prolaze,
 I od đerma još stanu trubiti,
 Da ti bar s basamka gledam obraze...
 Kad ih ne smem ljubiti... Pa da me u službu sam car pri'vati...
 Teget mundir knap... Dugmad - dukati...Djordje Balasevic - Ladjarska serenata - http://motolyrics.com/djordje-balasevic/ladjarska-serenata-lyrics-english-translation.html
 Da se, kad medaljon kreneš pokazivati,
 Nemaš čime brukati... Pa da i tvoj baba podavije rep...
 I da drugi list počne listati:
 Jel'te, gospon-matroz, možel' ovaj šlep
 Pod vaš oraj pristati? Malen je sobičak srce bekrije...
 Jednu jedinu može primiti...
 Al bez brige... Sve da santa nebo prekrije...
 Imaš di prezimiti... Sad utuli fenjer... Sakri šibicu...
 Mesečev ću prah tek da istrunim...
 Da u mraku lovim zlatnu ribicu...
 Da joj želju ispunim...
Djordje Balasevic - Vessel's serenade (English translation)
If God gets tired from all His worries,
 And if he please me to inherit him,
 It wouldn't be nice from me, while he get's rest
 that i change the world on the best..
But when i already hold that magical scepter
 I would bluff it with flaming thunder..
 Till then, i would move a river little to the right
 On the old rocky road...
So that vessels can sail throught my street
 And right by the well start to honk..
 I would do all that just that i can watch your face from my stairs..
 Becouse i can't kiss it..
Oh, i wish that i'm one of the emperors
 in good fitting dark blue suit with gold buttons and ducatsDjordje Balasevic - Ladjarska serenata - http://motolyrics.com/djordje-balasevic/ladjarska-serenata-lyrics-english-translation.html
 So that you can be proud
 when we start showing us around...
And that your father finally retreat himself
 And that he turn another page...
 So i can ask him, can my vessel
 finally sail in front of your walnut tree...
Cuz heart of a tippler is a small room..
 Only one can fulfill it..
 But don't worry....Even if icebergs cover the sky,
 you have a place when you can overwinter...
And now, turn off the lantern...and hide the matches..
 I will crumble the moon dust,
 So i can catch the gold fish in the dark,
 and make her wish come true....
