I will translate a little bit different for I belive is more accurate. Also there is original version which is longer in text-lirics then this shorter made that was translated and singed above. The song is beautifull as all old songs of that kind. After this maby I will translate original longer version. The one above is shortened from original and this is beautiful. Here is more accurate translation:

An strange affliction from the town Mostar
All from last year and still until now
How biba suffers from love

Pain suffers Biba of Celebic
Pain suffers, tells to no one
Pain suffers, tells to no one

My dother Bibo and my blushing Rose
Tell your mother what hurts you, My Soul
It hurts me my heart and my head
For my Ahmo talks to another one…
