Johnny Cash – (Ghost) Riders in the Sky

An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry

Ghost Riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat
He’s riding hard to catch that herd, but he ain’t caught ’em yet
‘Cause they’ve got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire
As they ride on hear their cry

As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name
If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the Devil’s herd, across these endless skies

Ghost Riders in the sky
Ghost Riders in the sky
Ghost Riders in the sky

Prevod pesme

(Avetinjski) Nebeski jahači

Jedan kauboj stari jahao je jednog mračnog i vetrovitog dana
Na nekom grebenu se odmarao dok je svojim putem išao
Kad je, odjednom, moćno krdo crvenookih krava ugledao
kako se probija kroz jarugu od oblaka i nebo pobesnelo

Njihovi žigovi još su goreli a papci su im bili čelični
Njihovi rogovi bili su crni i sjajni a mogao je osetiti njihov vreli dah
Dok su po nebu grmele žilama mu je prostrujao strah
Jer video je da su se Jahači opako navrzli i čuo je njihov poklič tužni

Avetinjski nebeski jahači

Njihova lica koščata, njihove oči bile su zamagljene, njihove košulje znojem natopljene
Opako jaše da uhvati to krdo, ali još ih nije uhvatio
Jer oni moraju zauvek jahati na toj daljini gore na nebu
Na konjima što vatrufrkću
Dok oni dalje jašu, poslušaj njihov plač

Dok su jahači pored njega kaskali, čuo je jednog kako ga doziva
Ako želiš da spaseš svoju dušu paklene vožnje našim poligonoma
Onda se kauboju, još danas promeni ili ćeš s nama jahati
Pokušavajući da uhvatiš đavolovo krdo na ovom nebu beskrajnom

Avetinjski nebeski jahači
Avetinjski nebeski jahači
Avetinjski nebeski jahači
