LyricsTranslations

I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I’d take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay

But I feel I’m growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin’ ’round
I guess I’ll always be
A soldier of fortune

Many times I’ve been a traveler
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you’re not here

Now I feel I’m growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin’ ’round
I guess I’ll always be
A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin’ ’round
I guess I’ll always be
A soldier of fortune

Prevod pesme

Vojnik sudbine

Često sam ti pričao priče
o tome kako sam
živeo kao skitnica
Čekajući dan
kada ću te uzeti za ruku
i tvoje pesme pevati
Onda bi možda rekla
dođi lezi kraj mene, voli me
I ja bih sigurno ostao

Ali imam osećaj da starim
i pesme koje sam pevao
odjekuju u daljini
kao zvuk
stare vetrenjače kako se okreće
Pretpostavljam da ću uvek biti
Vojnik sudbine

Mnogo sam puta putnik bio
Nešto sam novo tražio
U vremenima starim
kad noći su hladne bile
Lutao sam bez tebe
Ali tih dana mi se učinilo da su te moje oči
ugledale kako stojiš blizu mene
Iako je slepilo zbunjujuće
Vidi se da ti nisi ovde

Sad imam osećaj da starim
i pesme koje sam pevao
odjekuju u daljini
kao zvuk
stare vetrenjače kako se okreće
Pretpostavljam da ću uvek biti
Vojnik sudbine
Da, čujem zvuk
stare vetrenjače kako se okreće
Pretpostavljam da ću uvek biti
Vojnik sudbine
