Lyrics:

Mamo
Visel iz tenji vnov, moj vrag -- maja ljubov
Njejizbjezna maja dolja, skoljka sertse nji gatov
No, prezdje cem ujti, kaljeckom zalatim
Abrucil menja s saboju i at car nje zasitil
I na volju maju dusu nje pustil

Mamo, a ti z men? kazala jak ne zadaj
Mamo, a ja z tod? ne znala de z ta b?da
Mamo, a ti z men? kazala cas jak voda
Mamo, mamo, mamo, ljubov -- b?da

Brosu mectu svaju i ob pal razabju
Kak slamal ti maju dolju i astavjil na kraju
Ja dazdjom djevjici sljozi razalju

Mama, a ti ze mnje skazala, nje azidaj
Mama, a ja z tagda nje znala, gdje z ta bjeda
Mama, a ti ze mnje skazala, vrjema -- vada
Mama, mama, mama, ljubov -- bjeda

Mamo, a ja z tod? ne znala de z ta b?da
Mamo, a ti z men? kazala cas jak voda
Mamo, mamo, mamo, ljubov -- b?da

English Translation:

Mum
Out of the shadows once again, my enemy, my love
Inevitable is my destiny, no matter how much you're prepared
But before you left, with golden ring
You engaged to me and didn't save me from sorcery
And didn't let my soul be free

Mum, and you've been telling me not to desire
Mum, and at that time I didn't know where trouble was
Mum, and you've been telling me that time is like water
Mum, Mum, Mum, love is trouble

I will throw away my dream and crush it on the floor
How you've broken my destiny and left it on the side
I will pour out girl's tears like rain

Mum, and you've been telling me not to desire
Mum, and at that time I didn't know where trouble was
Mum, and you've been telling me that time is like water
Mum, Mum, Mum, love is trouble

Mum, and at that time I didn't know where trouble is
Mum, and you've been telling me that time is like water
Mum, Mum, Mum, love is trouble
