Jednom si mi dao ti
mali ključ od zlata
i odonda uvijek ga
nosim oko vrata.
Bio je to moj rođendan,
još se svega sjećam…
saznala sam prvi put
što je prava sreća.
Mali zlatni ključić taj
otkrio mi je sve –
da su vrata ljubavi
put u sretan svijet.
Taj mali ključ što visi još
oko moga vrata,
vredniji od blaga sveg,
vredniji od zlata.
Mali skromni poklon tvoj
otkrio mi je sve –
da su vrata ljubavi
put u sretan svijet.
English Translation
A Small Key of Gold
Once you gave me
a small key of gold
and since then I always
wear it around my neck.
It was then my birthday,
I still remember everything…
for the first time I
found out what real happiness was.
That small key of gold
revealed everything to me,
that the door of love is
a road to the happy world.
That small key that still hangs
around my neck,
is worthy more than all of the treasures,
is worthy more than gold.
Your humble little gift
revealed everything to me,
that the door of love is
a road to the happy world.
