Pearl Jam – Sad (Letter to the Dead)

All the photographs are peeling
and colors turn to gray, he stayed
in his room with memories for days, he faced
an undertow of future’s laid to waste, embraced
by the loss of one he could not replace

and there’s no reason that she’d passed
and there is no god with a plan, it’s sad
and his loneliness is proof, it’s sad
he could only love you, it’s sad

the door swings through a passing fable
a fate we may delay, we say
holding on, live within our embrace
he lit a match, he laid in bed
hoping their dreams will bring her back, it’s sad
and his loneliness is cruel, it’s sad
he could only love you, it’s sad

holding his last breath, believing
he’ll make his way
if she’s not forgotten
he’s haunted
he’s searching for escape

if just one wish could bring her back, it’s sent
and his loneliness is proof, it’s sad
he will always love you, he said

Prevod na srpski

Tužno (Pismo mrtvima)

Sve fotografije ljušte se
i boje sive postaju, on je ostao
u svojoj sobi sa uspomenama, danima, suočio se sa tim
da jedna podvodna struja budućnosti odlazi u propast, u zagrljaju
gubitka jedne koju nije mogao da zameni

i nema razloga za njenu smrt
i nema Boga sa nekim planom, tužno je
a njegova usamljenost je dokaz, tužno je
samo tebe je mogao voleti, tužno je

vrata se njišu kroz prolaznu fabulu
jedna sudbina koju možemo odložiti, kažemo
istrajavajući, živi pod našim okriljem
zapalio je šibicu, položio u krevet
nadajući se da će je njihovi snovi vratiti, tužno je
a njegova usamljenost je okrutna, tužno je
samo tebe je mogao voleti, tužno je

zadržavajući svoj poslednji dah, verujući
da će uspeti
ako ona ne bude zaboravljena
on je uklet
on traži izlaz

kad bi je samo jedna želja mogla vratiti, izaslata je
a njegova usamljenost je dokaz, tužno je
on će te uvek voleti, rekao je
