Remorker [English translation]

Snows are coming, I can't help it,

Cold bothers me more and more

Tuck me gently in your hear like a pearl hair clip

I need that, my little shelter under the sky

Unhook the barges, aim the morning and

Let that boat slide

Americans found the code for it: Take it easy,

My beautiful doll, a ripe peach splits in the sky

Turn off the lights, take your foot off the gas

We are afraid of funny things

You think someone is asking about us

As if we don't exist

Put your thoughts at idle

Shake the stars like mulberries

And slowly ran aground the ship

On those plush sandbanks

And dream…

Migratory bird pass by, little sails flutter across the open sea of sky 1

That departure of geese always makes me older

The road to paradise, oh, is it upstream till the end

Turn off the lights, take your foot off the gas

We are afraid of funny things

You think someone is asking about us

As if we don't exist

Put your thoughts at idle

Shake the stars like mulberries

And slowly ran aground the ship

On those plush sandbanks

And dream…

1. In this verse, Balasevic is playing with words, replacing the fluttering wings of birds with sails of boat (so he is saying little sails flutter), and linking also the sky to the open sea. I translated this part the closest to the original as possible (open sea of sky).
