Promised Land

from Places (EP) by Jelena Ciric

lyrics

Selo, selo moje okićeno gorom.
Vitom, vitom jelom i zelenim borom.
Sadi, sadi mala borove i jele.
Ja ću, ja ću ruže rumene i bjele.

Cradled by the mountains of blood-red stone.
Pines stretch their branches over buried bones.
You're only there to visit, but the welcome is warm,
and a party breaks out like the day you were born.

Faces shine brightly, lit by burning oak.
This is the promised land, can you see it through the smoke?
Give away the songs you've been clutching in your hand:
they're the waning roses of the promised land.
