Lyrics

Lyrics: Uzdišem noćas za vojnikom Strasno se ljubim s njegovom slikom I tiho pričam s njegovim likom Nikom te nedam, nedam te nikom Kada ti truba prekine san Kad te pozove u novi dan Ti samo zamisli ljubav svoju Da korača u istom stroju U tamnoj noći prosu se tuga Tješi me mjesec k'o starog druga Fenjer mi drži k'o vjerni sluga Dok pišem pisma sjetna i duga Kada ti truba prekine san Kad te pozove u novi dan Ti samo zamisli ljubav svoju Da korača u istom stroju Vojnički dani brzo će proći Opet ćeš u moj zagrljaj doći Spremna će biti postelja meka I vjerna žena koja te čeka Kada ti truba prekine san Kad te pozove u novi dan Ti samo zamisli ljubav svoju Da korača u istom stroju

Lyrics (English): At night I sigh over a soldier I kiss his photograph with passion And speaking softly, I say to his handsome face "I won't betray you, I'll never betray you" When the trumpet cuts your dreaming short When they summon you into a new dawning day Just imagine that your true love Is marching in the same unit you are In the dark of night, sadness besets me Like an old friend, the moon consoles me And a lamp assists me like a faithful servant As I write letters long and melancholy When the trumpet cuts your dreaming short When they summon you into a new dawning day Just imagine that your true love Is marching in the same unit you are Your day of soldiering shall pass by quickly And you will be back in my arms again There'll be a soft bed ready for you here And a faithful wife who is waiting for you When the trumpet cuts your dreaming short When they summon you into a new dawning day Just imagine that your true love Is marching in the same unit you are
