Tanja Savic
Sestra po suzama
Bio si bol u mojim grudima
u glavi gore i od ludila
u srcu nezvan gost, u grlu tanka kost
kada nemam vazduha
Slepa ulica i hladan dom
crno nebo nad Beogradom
to si mi bio ti, al' sada ne brini
prezivela sam to
Posle tebe ja sam zena
u ljubav ranjena
Ref.
Kome sada lomis krila
kome prljas postelju
kome ulazis pod kozu
sve do kostiju
Kome dane tugom mracis
kome crno oblacis
ko za tobom place ovih dana
kada ostane u noci sama
moja je to sestra po suzama
Cemu sada takva presija
ma, sad mi treba anestezija
da bol ne osecam, da te se ne secam
u dugim nocima
Sramota me je sto sam trazila
andjela u liku djavola
izgubila sam, znam, na zidu placa sam
ime ti napisala
Posle tebe ja sam zena
u ljubav ranjena
Ref. 2x

Tanja Savic - Sister by tears
You were the pain in my chest,
in my head worse than madness,
an uninvited guest in my heart,
a thin bone in my thorat when I can't breathe.
A blind alley and a cold home,
the black sky over Belgrade,
that you were to me. But don't worry
I survived all that.
After you I'm a woman
wounded in love.
Ref.
Whose wings are you breaking now?
Whose sheets are you staining?
Under whose skin are you crawling
all the way to the bone?
Whose days are you darkening with sorrow?
Whom are you dressing in black?
Who is crying after you these days
when she's left alone in the night-
She's my sister by tears.
Why now all this presija? (don't know what this means)
Now I need anesthesia
so I don't feel pain, so I don't remember you
in the long nights.
Im ashamed that I was looking for
an angel in the guise of a devil.
I lost, I know, on the wall of tears I
wrote down your name.
After you I'm a woman
wounded in love. -
presija might be pressure. just a guess.

Here's my translation:
Tanja Savic - Sestra po suzama ~ Sister by tears
You were the pain in my chest
Worse than madness in my head
In my heart an uninvited guest
A thorn in my side when I don't have a breath of air
A dead-end street and an empty house
A dark sky above Belgrade
That's what you were to me
But don't worry now, I've gotten over it
After you, I'm a woman hurt by love
Ref.
Whose wings are you breaking
Whose bed are you staining
Whose good graces are you getting deep into
Whose days are you darkening with sorrow
For whom are you dressing in black
Who's crying for you these days when she's left alone at night
That's my sister by tears
Why that pressure now
Well, now I need anesthesia
So that I won't feel the pain
So that I won't remember you during long nights
I'm ashamed, because I seeked
For an angel disguised as a devil
I've lost, I know
I've written your name on the Western Wall
Sister by tears = they share the same tears, which makes them sisters
