Never Forget
Sami Yusuf
Oh when you smile
It makes me smile
When you cry
I can’t help but cry
Sarajevo
It’s you I long for
How you suffered silently
Throughout the ages
I cried for you
I’d die for you
I carry you in my heart
Sarajevo
Don’t live in fear
Nor in regret
You should forgive
But never forget
Trans. Bosnian Lyrics
Through the pearl of cities, put to fire and sword,
May the rivers of life now start to flow.
It is fate: the tear has learned to know,
On this day the pain and sorrow
Should hide no more.
This is the moment of remembrance
A prayer to the heavens
A call to each and every heart,
Be forgiving; pave the way to Light,
My Sarajevo
I cried for you
I’d die for you
How you suffered
Sarajevo
