Priča o Vasi Ladačkom [English translation]

Do you know the story of Vasa Ladachki (it's a name). I heard it just a while ago

Once he didn't come out of tavern for 9 days,he is said to be of a strange kind

His father was "commoner", 'he fed 7 hungry mouths'.

His mother was blond,quiet,gentle,??????

She died in hers 30-es...

They had a couple of acres of land,little house at the end of alley

On the table there's "always" bread,just as much as it was needed

But Vasa wanted much more...

He wanted "good" horses on the field playfuled

he wanted a golden watch and granges...

he wanted productive fields,rich vineyards

???????????????????????, but he couldn't have them

He loved a beautiful but poor lady,he would "take" her only if he had known:

youy love only once in your life,rich or poor one,

it doesn't choose your mind,it does you heart...

He hoped love will fade.He went from that town forever

He didn't ever write to anybody,he got married with the "rich girl"

the only daughter of some "boss"...

He got "good" horses on the field playfuled

golden watch and granges

he got productive fields,rich vineyards

???????????????????????.ha had it all,but he had nothing

He got drunk,it didn't pass much time,he sold his soul to the devil

he is known to all drunkers,he searched the salvation in the glas

but he couldn't find it...

He was young,they say,when he died,at the centerof tavern,of a heart attack

his head fainted,like he's nappying,like he's sleeping

and they still remember his last words...

It's not worth of "good" horses on the field playfuled,

it's not worth of golden watch and granges...

it's not worth of productive fields,rich vineyards

it's not worth of ????????????....

When I'm not with one that I love,

when I'm not with one that I love

when I'm not with one that I love

Oh,when I'm not with one that I love

Do you know the story about Vasa Ladachki? I heard it just a while ago.

even those similar to him,when they think about everything

they say he was of a strange kind
