    Default Marko Djurovski - Trebaš mi

    Here's a song I really like. It reminds me of a situation much like my own life! So naturally I had to translate it! Comments are, as always, very welcome!

    Marko Djurovski - Trebaš mi - You need me

    Verse 1:

    Veruj poslednji put sada pišem ove reči
    Believe me, this is the last time I write these words,
    Niko od tebe mi nije preči, niko ne može da me spreči
    No one is more pressing than you, no one can stop me,
    Da ti kažem da te volim, da se svake noći molim
    To tell you that I love you, to pray every night,
    Da vratiš se, zauvek želim te, pokraj sebe
    For you to return, I always desire you, beside one’s self,
    Jer sve što dotaknem, na šta pomislim
    Because all that I touch, all I think about,
    Sve podseća na tebe, iako nisi pokraj mene
    It all reminds me of you, even if you’re not with me,
    Slatke reči, slatki snovi, mnogi poljupci u noći
    Sweet words, sweet dreams, lots of kisses at night,
    Mala moraš meni doći, srećo moraš mi pomoći
    Girl you have to come to me, aid me to my fortune (happiness),
    I sama znaš koliko boli, kad nekog voliš
    And you yourself know how bad it hurts, when you love someone,
    Kad nekog moliš, kad se za ljubav boriš
    When you beg someone, when you fight for love,
    Kada ne želiš da se predaš, napred neprestano gledaš
    When you don’t want to rest, you look ahead constantly,
    Jako osećaš i znaš da naspram sebe stoji drugi deo tebe
    You strongly feel and know that in spite of you there’s another part of me,
    Drugi deo, za kojim tragaš život ceo
    Another part, with which you sprain your whole life,
    Drugi deo, koji napokon si sreo
    Another part, which you finally met,
    Koji si toliko hteo da ti nežno ruku pruži, preda
    Which you really wanted to fondly extend its hand to you, pause,
    Srce svoje, sebe da, da voli kao tebe ja…
    My heart gives itself to you, to love you like I do...

    Bridge:

    Samo želim da znam zašto si otišla
    I only want to know why you left,
    Kada rekla si meni da sam ti jedini
    When you told me I was your one and only,
    Koliko puta rekla da ćeš moja ostati
    How many times you told me you’d remain mine,
    U reku bacila sve, srce još boli me
    You threw it all in the river, my heart still hurts me,

    Chorus:

    Ne mogu da verujem, koliko smo se voleli
    I can’t believe how much we loved each other,
    A ti si nestala, sve naše snove srušila si
    But you disappeared, you ruined our dreams,
    Moraš shvatiti, da puno trebaš mi
    You have to grasp that you really need me,
    Hajde reci mi da li isto osećaš ti?
    Come on, tell me, do you feel the same?

    Verse 2:

    A sada pokraj mene sedi, reci da li vredi
    But now sit by me, what’s worth
    Više sve što sledi ili slika koja bledi, naše prošlosti
    more: everything that follows or a picture that fades? Our past,
    I pragovi, još mnogo puta moramo ih preći
    And thresholds, we still have to cross them many times,
    I opet poverenje jedno u drugo steći
    And again acquire each other’s trust,
    Osećanja jedno drugom reći, jer šta je bilo, bilo je
    Tell our feelings to each other, because what happened, happened,
    Neka tako ostane, neka ga vreme odnese
    So let it remain, let time carry it away,
    Moraš to da mi obećaš, dok u moje oči gledaš
    You must give in, since you’re looking in my eyes,
    Celu sebe da mi predaš, da me nikad nikom ne daš
    Surrender yourself to me, to never give to anyone else,
    I zauvek da znaš, za mene samo ti postojiš
    And always know, that you’re the only one for me,
    Samo tebe volim, nemoj da se bojiš, stani tu gde stojiš
    I only love you, don’t worry, stay here where you stand,
    Znam još uvek voliš, moje osmehe i moje poglede
    I know you still love my smiles and gazes,
    Koji prodiru duboko u tebe, osećanja i sećanja
    That penetrate deep into you, feelings and memories,
    Koja vrede, koja nikada ne blede, kao uspomene
    That are worth alot (to us), that never fade, like keepsakes,
    I samo jedan osmeh tvoj je mene mogao da smiri
    And yours is the only smile that could calm me,
    Nedostaje mi miris tvoj, nedostaju mi tvoji dodiri...
    I miss your scent, I miss your touch...

    Bridge:

    Samo želim da znam zašto si otišla
    I only want to know why you left,
    Kada rekla si meni da sam ti jedini
    When you told me I was your one and only,
    Koliko puta rekla da ćeš moja ostati
    How many times you told me you’d remain mine,
    U reku bacila sve, srce još boli me
    You threw it all in the river, my heart still hurts me,

    Chorus:

    Ne mogu da verujem, koliko smo se voleli
    I can’t believe how much we loved each other,
    A ti si nestala, sve naše snove srušila si
    But you disappeared, you ruined our dreams,
    Moraš shvatiti, da puno trebaš mi
    You have to grasp that you really need me,
    Hajde reci mi da li isto osećaš ti?
    Come on, tell me, do you feel the same?

    Opera:

    Znaj trebaš mi ti, trebaš mi ti, trebaš mi ti, moja ljubavi…
    Know that I need you, I need you, I need you, my love…

    Thanks for the correction, Spring! I will have to edit it on my computer. I spent a lot of time on it, even consulting my mom. It definitely was the most difficult song I've translated, and knew a couple things didn't make sense, but it worked out for the most part.

    My only question is:
    "Jako osećaš i znaš da naspram sebe stoji drugi deo tebe"
    I honestly thought would be at least close to:
    "You strongly feel and know that in spite of you there’s another part of me"

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but if one were to say "another part of you", wouldn't one say "drugi deo od tebe"? I'm most likely wrong, but it's the wording and word placement that may throw me off.

    Oh and I'm also confused by "da puno trebaš mi"
    You translated it as: "I need you so much"
    Wouldn't it be "da puno trebam te"? to say I need you so much? Ahh, so confused again!

    "In spite" would be "uprkos"
    "another part of me" would be "drugi deo mene"

    but I am not surprised the sentence confused you because there is absolutely something wrong with it. If you ask me, it should be:
    "Jako osećaš i znaš da naspram tebe stoji drugi deo tebe"
    but I guess they used "sebe" to avoid repeating "tebe" although a better solution would have been:
    "Jako osećaš i znaš da naspram tebe stoji tvoja druga polovina"

    drugi deo tebe (tvoja druga polovina) = the other part of you (your other half)

    By saying "deo tebe" you are already saying it's the person's part. No need for "od". But.. I am sure someone else could explain it better

    hmmmz
    I think that would be Croatian: "trebam te"
    In Serbian, we don't say it like that but "trebas mi"

    Ah, well that makes sense. I tend to speak a super mix of all the dialects it seems. So I guess I can say I speak YUGOSLAVIAN . Haha, but seriously I can say something like "svijeta" and "gde" in the same sentence.

    But I guess the reason it's so confusing is because when you tell someone or ask a singular person something, you say "trebas", so that's why I guess I was thinking that. Oh well. Guess I know now haha.

    I need you - trebaš mi (ti meni trebaš)(srb) - trebam te (cro)
    you need me - trebam ti (ja tebi trebam)- ti me trebaš

    Honey, continue conjugation in our language, not in Eng, that's what I want to see!
    I write to see am I going to be confused

    P.S. "Yugoslavian language(s)" would include Macedonian and Slovenian too.

    Aha - I caught something!
    she needs me-trebam joj (correct)(ona meni treba) ---->ja trebam njoj / ja joj trebam or ona mene treba (but I'm not sure for the last one)

    ona meni treba = I need her

    The rest is čista petica!
