Lyrics

Lyrics: Nekad davno na ličkome prelu Na ličkome prelu Ja se ludo zaljubi' u Jelu Zaljubi' u Jelu Nema Like ni ličkoga prela Ni ličkoga prela Za drugoga udala se Jela Udala se Jela Na šporetu žuta pura kvrca Žuta pura kvrca Savila se tuga oko srca Tuga oko srca Varenika kinula po ploči Kinula po ploči Nema Jele, za njom plaču oči Za njom plaču oči Na srcu se nakotile rane Nakotile rane Čekam zoru, neće da mi svane Neće da mi svane Ja sam Jelu tri godine ček'o Tri godine ček'o Vrag joj sreću odnio daleko Odnio daleko Ode Jela i ostavi mene I ostavi mene Ostale su samo uspomene Samo uspomene Drugom Jela rodila je sina Rodila je sina Al' još pamti kršnog Ličanina Kršnog Ličanina

Lyrics (English): Once upon a time, at a Lika prelo At a Lika prelo I fell madly in love with Jela Fell in love with Jela There is no more Lika, no more Lika prelo No more Lika prelo Jela married someone else Married someone else On the stove, a yellow turkey sizzles A yellow turkey sizzles Sorrow has wrapped itself around my heart Sorrow around my heart Sour milk spilled across the floor Spilled across the floor There is no Jela, my eyes cry for her My eyes cry for her Wounds have multiplied on my heart Multiplied on my heart I wait for dawn, but it won't break for me It won't break for me I waited for Jela for three years Waited for three years The devil took her happiness far away Took it far away. Jela left and abandoned me And abandoned me Only memories remain Only memories Jela born another man a son Born him a son But she still remembers the sturdy Ličanin The sturdy Ličanin
