Sedam dana

Jeca · Other Songs - Jeca

Sedam dana, sedam noci
kako samo uzdisem
kao strele tvoje oci
srce mi pogodise

Ref. 2x
Sto noci moze proci
nikada necu moci
da prebolim oci te
sto su moje mlado srce
zavele pa nestale

Sedam dana, sedam noci
srce mi ne miruje
nije htelo, ali tvojim
ocima vec robuje

Ref. 2x

Sedam dana, sedam noci
progone me oci te
sto pogledom jednim svojim
moje srce slomise

Ref. 2x

Seven days under a lingering spell

“Sedam dana” (“Seven Days”) turns a brief infatuation into a week-long obsession. Jeca's narrator has been unable to stop sighing since the beloved's eyes caught her attention; the image of a glance as an arrow makes attraction feel sudden and almost involuntary. The refrain stretches that moment forward, imagining that even many more nights will not make the memory fade.

The song is part of Jelena “Jeca” Krsmanović's Serbian folk catalogue and is associated with her 2000 album *Ti gubiš*. Its lyric follows a familiar folk-ballad theme—love arriving through a look—but gives the feeling a strong sense of duration. The repeated seven-days-and-seven-nights phrase measures the singer's fixation while the verses revisit how her heart was captured and then left behind.

No trustworthy chart peak or substantial critical response is readily available. “Sedam dana” works as a melodic account of the lingering aftermath of attraction: the beloved may have disappeared, but the singer remains under the spell of that first glance. Its direct imagery and repetition keep the emotional focus clear.
