lyrics

Što te nema, što te nema....
Why are you gone, why are you gone....

Kad mi sanak pokoj dade
As a little dream gives me rest

I duša se miru sprema
And the soul is preparing itself for peace

Iz srca se glasak krade:
From within my heart, a voice springs:

Što te nema, što te nema?
Why are you gone, why are you gone?

A, a, što te nema?
Oh, oh, why are you gone?

Procvijetala svaka staza
Every path has flourished

Ko što biješe divnih dana
Just as there were beautiful days

Po ružama i sad prska
Onto the flowers it still keeps sprinkling

Bistra voda šadrvana
The clear water from a shadrvan

All of that is happening while the ever larger use of electronics steers the musical helm toward unexplored, distant sonic galaxies. ... more
