Nema Nista Majko Od Tvoga Veselja [English translation]

From a young age I spent my summers with her,

Life took us to the opposite ends of the earth.

I did not know who was to blame, so I blamed everyone in turn,

I vowed that I would find her, even with grey hair.*

Ref.

The days are passing, mother, and from her (I've had) not so much as a letter,

I will die from the sorrow of us not being together.

You want my wedding, but your wish is in vain.

There will be nothing, mother, of your celebrations.*

I thought that time would bring her back to me.

For years I wrote letters without addresses.

I did not know who was to blame, so I blamed everyone in turn,

I vowed that I would find her, even with grey hair.*
