Priblizimo godine

Zica Markovic · Other Songs - Zica Markovic

Nase su zelje potpuno iste
lagano krecu s' ljubavne piste
sve je tu jasno, ljubav se radja
ne mari sto si od mene mladja

Ref.
Priblizimo godine
da tako izgleda
ti si mlada
a kod mene tek poneka seda

Priblizi mi godine
godinama mladim
da se pokraj tebe
jos malo podmladim

Poljupci tvoji tako su vreli
iskrenu ljubav srce mi zeli
nek' vreme sada stane u letu
da opet budem u prvom cvetu

Ref.

Moja su jutra ponovo vedra
ljubavni vetar puni mi jedra
za nasu srecu dignimo case
da budu blize godine nase

Ref.

Priblizimo godine

Zica Marković's 'Priblizimo godine' stands as a defining work of Yugoslav folk music, capturing the melancholic essence of rural life and the passage of time. Recorded in the mid-1960s, the song exemplifies the genre's characteristic blend of acoustic instrumentation and emotive vocals that resonated deeply across the region. As a staple of the era's folk revival, the track reflects the cultural atmosphere of post-war Yugoslavia, where traditional themes were reimagined with modern sensitivity. Marković's delivery brings a raw authenticity to the lyrics, which explore the bittersweet nature of aging and the enduring connection to one's homeland. The recording remains a significant piece in the broader canon of Yugoslav folk, influencing subsequent generations of musicians who sought to preserve and evolve this unique musical heritage.
