Kad je bio mrak,
   kad je bio mrak,
   pojurila macka misa
   cak, cak, cak.

   Pojurila macka misa
   cak, cak, cak,
   - a dal' ga je progutala,
   il' ga nije progutala,
   to ni ona nije znala,
   - jer je bio mrak,
   jer je bio mrak...

   Dusan Radovic

 

   When it was dark
   inside the house
   a cat chased a mouse far away,
   far, far away.

   A cat chased a mouse far away,
   far, far away.
   Did the cat eat the mouse?
   Did the cat miss the mouse?
   Even his suspicion roused
   because it was dark,
   because it was dark...
