When We Loved Each Other ~ Kad Smo Se Voljeli Poem by Jankovic Zoran

When we loved each other
we were just
travelers to the past,
consumers of love
which time punishes
with the harsh truth.

When we loved each other
we could not forgive
silence that causes unrest;
we couldn't forget
that we used to love each other.

It's for lovers
the greatest punishment
when their love dying slowly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kad smo se voljeli

Kad smo se voljeli
mi smo bili samo
putnici u prošlost,
potrošači ljubavi
koje vrijeme kažnjava
surovom istinom.

Kad smo se voljeli
nismo mogli oprostiti
ćutanje koju unosi nemire;
nismo mogli zaboraviti
da smo se nekad voljeli.

Za ljubavnike je
najveća kazna
kad njihova ljubav
umire polako.
