HAD I WINGS/DAB BI IMAL PERJE
Am Am
Had I wings my darling,
A7 Dm
I would go a-flying.
Am Dm
*Ease my sorrows with your kisses
E E7 Am
In your arms a-lying. (*repeat)
I would fly, my mother,
Straightway at your bidding.
*I would still my torments with you,
Childhood days reliving.*
Would I had some dear one,
One to stand beside me**
*Friendless in a far-off country
Youth I`ve wasted roving.*
Come you little swallow,
Take my lonely message,
Fly across the mountains with it
To my native village.
If there`s none to read it,
None to share my sorrow,
Loneliness shall be my portion,
Emptiness my morrow.

Dl bi imal perje
Kak le-te-tu f-tica
Sake vecher bi do-le-tel
K-tebi grilichizha
Da bi imal majku,
Koja me rodila
Sake vecher b-kynjoj ishel
Kaj be se spominal
Da bi imal dragu,
Ka bi me luj-bila,
Nej se moja lepa mla-dost
V stranj-skem zhalo-stila
Leti me ti f-tichek
Chrez visoke gore,
Odnesi mi zelen listek
V malo Medimorje.
Ali da ga ipak
Nemash komu dati
Nemam tu-zhen svoje tuje
Komu povedati.
