Emina
Hari Mata Hari Lyrics

The lyrics of Hari Mata Hari's song Emina express the singer's nostalgia for his past love, and how she has become his new home - a sentiment conveyed by the repeated refrain "Nista nemam, o Emina, sad si ti, moja domovina" ("I have nothing, oh Emina, now you're my homeland"). The song opens with the singer questioning where his erstwhile love is now, and how far he is from home. He reminisces about his past life with her, and all he left behind in order to be with her. He is now alone, and she is the only solace he has in his life.

The chorus speaks to the centrality of his lost love in his life - how she has become everything, his home, his refuge, the balm for his wounds. He remembers the moments they shared together in the past, and how they fell in love under the white lilac bush. He yearns for her to hold him close, to comfort him, and to be the reason he never has to shed another tear. The song is a testament to the power of love, to heal, to console, and to make us feel at home wherever we may be.
